The Chariot and The Sun together in a reading
How to read them together
Two cards together don't simply add up: they qualify each other. In a spread, The Chariot and The Sun are read by each card's position (what question each answers) and by which comes first: the first sets the theme and the second refines, reinforces or challenges it. Read each card on its own first — both cited meanings are below — then ask what story they tell in that order.
What The Chariot means
The Chariot announces progress and victory through willpower. The opposing forces in your life can align if you hold your course with discipline. Keep going: triumph is earned, not awaited.
What The Sun means
The Sun is one of the brightest cards in the tarot: success, joy, and total clarity. What was dark becomes illuminated and life smiles again. Enjoy this moment and share it: happiness multiplies when given.
The combination in love
The Chariot in love: In love it shows a relationship moving forward with determination, or the need to take initiative. It can also speak of overcoming a challenge together, or of a long-distance love that takes effort.
The Sun in love: In love it announces full happiness: a relationship blooming in broad daylight, without shadows or secrets. Traditionally it also signals happy marriages and the joy of children.
