Description
The astrological correspondence to this card is the Sun, of course. The rune is Sigel. The Sun represents power and energy. The horse is without saddle or bridle. It is controlled without the use of the hands, either. This is a symbol of perfect control between the conscious and subconscious. The orange banner represents action and vibration. The rays of the sun represent the same thing: The straight rays are action while the wavy rays represent vibration. The banner is being held in the left hand, showing that control has passed from the conscious to the subconscious. The walled garden is the cultivated garden of mankind. He is riding away from it, leaving it behind. The sunflowers look toward him instead of to the sun for nourishment. They are seeking his wisdom. There are four sunflowers, representing the four suits of the Minor Arcana, as well as the four elements. The wreath and the feather are the same wreath and feather the Fool wears. Again, the child is naked, having nothing to hide. He has all the innocence and purity of childhood. What joys have you shared with others?
The Sun is an image of optimism and fulfilment, the dawn that follows our darkest night. As the source of all life on earth, the Sun represents the blessings of divinity, the Source of Life itself. The child playing joyfully in the foreground represents the happiness of our inner spirit when we are in tune with our truest Self. The white horse upon which the child rides represents strength and purity of spirit. The sunflowers in the background represent life and the fruitfulness of the spirit under the nourishment of the Sun.
Meanings
Radiance. You need to share your highest qualities and achievements. Radiate who you are and what you are doing always. Shine love on those you care about. Be a strong, paternal figure. Support all efforts to grow. Brilliant. Radiant. Sparkling. So many of our words reflect the power and glory of light. When we turn on the light in a room, we illuminate it so that all the dark corners are visible. When we turn on the light in our minds, we are enlightened. We see clearly and understand the truth. Both within and without, the energy of light expands our limits and makes us shine. Throughout history, people have honoured the Sun as the source of light and warmth. In the myths of many cultures, the Sun is a prominent god -full of vigour and courage. He is the vital energy centre that makes life on earth possible. In the Tarot the Sun also symbolizes vitality and splendour. The Sun is definitely not a meek and retiring card.
In readings, you will understand Card 19 if you imagine yourself to be a Sun God. How do you think and feel? You have total confidence in yourself. You are not cocky, but profoundly sure of your power. You have unlimited energy and glow with health. You have a greatness about you and stand out brilliantly. Finally, you see and understand all that is happening within your sphere. When you see this card, know that you will be successful at all you undertake. Now is the time to let your light shine.
This is a card of attainment and liberation. A good marriage is also indicated. Achievements will be made in the arts, science, or agriculture. You take pleasure in the simple life.
You have triumphed over the events and lessons of the past and are moulding a new persona which is not yet strong enough to hold its own. The space you are in now can be likened to a womb which is actually protective and nurturing, and when this embryonic stage or metamorphosis is complete you will be strong enough to face the world again.
You will make sure all intentions, both romantic and otherwise, are perfectly clear. Plans and directions, as well as messages of love, romance and appreciation will be exchanged. Communication will be kept flowing.
Confidence. Life is good, the sun is shining and you’re on your way. It is that feeling of getting up on Saturday morning, the whole weekend ahead of you, you open the curtains and the sun shines on your face. Having struggled through the shadow-sides you now know yourself and know where you’re heading. And the sun illuminates your path. This card tells you that you have reached a new level.
The Sun is an energetic card, a simple card as well: no elaborate scheming, plain and simple is the best option. When the Sun turns up in a reading, it indicates a boost forward and the fact you can trust that work can and will be done, with relative little effort.
This card is a portal, an opening in your life. It brings exuberance, enthusiasm, attainment, success, material wealth. All things associated with the sun are indicated: tropical climates, enlightenment, empowerment, and the joy of creativity and rebirth. This card’s work is to cleanse, to purify, to enhance, to improve, to illuminate. This card is a primal “YES!” to Life. It is luck, wellness, and positive consciousness. It is embracing one’s destiny, “going for it” in a very positive sense. You may have journeyed through darkness to get here, but this is the light.
Reversed
Plans are clouded. Marriage in trouble. Loss of a valued object.
Spell/Ritual/Meditation
At either sunrise or midday or a Sunday arrange a bunch of brightly coloured flowers and prepare a goblet of a sparkling mineral water mixed with orange juice. Adorn yourself with jewellery and a golden garment. On a yellow ribbon write these words, ” Golden light, we are one, shine on me, gift of the sun.” Tie it around your wrist and drink the “sun water”. Enjoy the day.
Thanks for reading,

Here’s a site where you’ll find my writings.
The Bravehearts of Belgrave High is now published. I have completed the first in a series of novels that I wrote for teens. It is the courageous story of a young girl growing up in a home filled with domestic violence. She also has to endure a school and neighbourhood full of bullies. We read how she maneuvres her way through such a difficult situation. Plus, how she grows because of it, among other themes in the novel.
The desired outcome for young readers is that they will be inspired to treasure their unique differences. If they don’t fit in with the system or with those around them, then they should realise that it’s quite okay not to fit in.
My first novel was written to help raise funds for the private foundation that I established, which might later become a charity. Click here if you’d like to be taken to the site where you can purchase this novel. If you cannot see the site, use a browser other than Chrome.
