The Sun

When The Sun appears to you upright, rejoice, for pure and blinding warmth, light, and joy are coming your way. As the giver of life on Earth, The Sun embodies all positive and nourishing things, signalling a highly optimistic and abundant time. You will find great success in achieving your goals and fulfillment that stems from being the most authentic, happiest version of yourself. Not only are you brimming with vitality, inspiration, and confidence, but you also radiate these qualities, positioning you well to share them for the betterment of others.

The Sun brings immense light, but sometimes, when we gaze at it for too long, we may discover that its brightness burns and blinds our eyes. This is one of the messages of The Sun reversed: we might be confusing optimism with realism, leading to unrealistic expectations about what a situation or thing truly is. At times, a reversal may also indicate that you encounter a stumbling block preventing you from seeing the bright side, or that you possess the power and strength to overcome challenges. Receiving this card calls for a balance of optimism and realism, as well as confidence and humility.
