Published March 01

Summary of the Sun Tarot Card Meaning

The dawn finally arrives, bringing our weary Fool a much needed relief. Never before have they ever appreciated the sun’s rays as much as they do now. They face life with a renewed vigor. They appreciate the small happinesses that they find during their day; a leaf dancing in the wind, the sound of the babbling brook by the hill, the warmth of the sun on their skin. Everything radiates life, the Fool included. This newfound appreciation is contagious; by radiating warmth, contentedness and peace, so too does the Fool bring that same joy to the people they meet along the way.

Light: Success, joy, truth, celebration, optimism
Shadow: Sadness, negativity, unclarity

A Note on the Fool's Journey Tarot Spreads: This is part of a series of tarot spreads inspired by the lessons of the Fool’s Journey, represented by the major arcana of the tarot. Since each major arcana card embodies a stage in one’s life journey, a lesson, or an archetype, we can use them as the foundations to explore moments of our own personal journeys. They also happen to be great ways to explore the meanings of each of these tarot cards in a very personal way.
