The Sun
A naked child wearing a crown of flowers rides a white horse beneath a blazing, personified sun, holding high a large scarlet banner. In the background, vibrant sunflowers grow tall over a stone wall.
The Sun represents the return to conscious innocence after the long journey through the night. It is the ego fully aligned with the divine self, radiating life, truth, and warmth without hesitation.
Upright
The Sun is the most radiant card in the Major Arcana. Upright, it represents unalloyed joy, physical vitality, dazzling success, and absolute clarity. It ensures that your endeavors will be blessed with warmth and public recognition.
Reversed
Reversed, the Sun is not a dark omen, but a slightly obscured light. It points to a temporary cloudiness, minor delays in your success, or an overconfidence driven by an unrealistic, naive optimism that ignores practical challenges.
