The Sun
Keywords: optimism, success, joy, birth, happiness, health, inner child, energy, enthusiasm
Attributes: Sun (Fire)
General meaning: A joyous and happy outcome. Success at last! The freedom to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Celebration and pleasure. The clouds are lifted and you can proceed with confidence. Birth of a beloved child. This is the card I want to see in a reading when I am looking for a positive sign (PS it’s my favorite card in the deck). Big time recognition. It is your time to grab that spotlight and run with it, yo.
Reversed: Still a good outcome but less happy happy joy joy – more like a quieter yet still optimistic future. Delayed gratification. Having a hard time stepping into that spotlight and taking a bow. (Could also be someone else taking credit for your stuff!) If other negative cards surround this, it could indicate sadness. Bratty kids.
Affirmation: My future is bright and filled with possibilities.
Theme song: “Soak Up the Sun” by Sheryl Crow
Journaling prompt: Think back to a time when you felt free, happy and full of optimism. What was happening in your life at that time? What experiences might bring you the same feeling now?
Blessings,
Theresa
