The Fool's Journey - 19 The Sun- Learning The Tarot

Fool's Journey Day 20

With The Vice Versa deck the original side is called This Side and the added side is called That Side. There is no good side or bad side or right side and reverse side. It simply another aspect of the card.

The next step on our journey is 19 - The Sun

This side: The Sun child, innocence and joy, is wearing a red tunic, a symbol of action in the world. His horse companion ready to carry him wherever he needs to go. This child only knows goodness and like those sunflowers behind him, always turns to the light.  One of the most positive cards in the deck, The Sun shines for all life that flourishes in its warmth.

In a reading: In any reading this card bodes well. No matter your own doubts or worries, success is assured here.  The Universe is in your favor now and if you have been waiting for the perfect time to start something, now is that time. Let your joy shine - all will work for you now!

That side:  The Sun has set here leaving stars, also small suns, in its wake.  The horse and child give comfort to each other knowing the sun will be back.  An obelisk to the Sun God Ra rises before a walled fortress. Sentinel's stand guard at the borders of the child's garden.  Mountainous lands look challenging in the background but the optimistic Sun Child will still go forward to share the light.

In a reading: The Sun card is positive on both of its sides. The difference now being that your doubts or fears are justified.  Be aware of challenges and be prepared for any troubles you think may come. But like the other side, all will be well. Always keep moving forward - just be sure to have a plan for any contingencies that may be in your path. The morning will always bring more light!
