The Sun tarot meaning
The Sun is card XIX of the Major Arcana and one of the most positive cards in the deck. Upright, it stands for joy, success, and things going well. Reversed, it still leans positive, but points to happiness that's delayed, dimmed, or harder to feel.
Keywords: joy, success, warmth
The Sun upright
A child rides a white horse under a huge, bright sun, holding a red banner, with sunflowers behind a wall. Everything is warm and out in the open. Upright, the card means things are working: success, good health, a happy time, a yes. It's a good moment to be seen and to enjoy it.
The Sun reversed
Reversed, the good news is still there but feels muted. You may be too busy or worried to enjoy it, or a success is taking longer than you hoped. Sometimes it means you're being too modest about what's going well.
The Sun in love and relationships
Happy, open, and affectionate. Upright, a relationship is in a good place, or you're ready to share joy with someone. Reversed, a temporary cloud, or not feeling as close as you'd like.
The Sun at work and with money
Recognition, success, and confidence. A great card for a launch, an interview, or a review. With money, things look good. Reversed, success is coming but more slowly.
The Sun as advice
Share something you've done and enjoy the attention. Spend time outside or with people who make you laugh.
When The Sun keeps showing up
When The Sun keeps showing up, it's worth taking in. Look at what was going well each time it appeared. Seeing a run of good pulls together can help you trust that things are working.
