The Sun card is the most positive card in the Tarot deck and is often called the ‘yes’ card. If a ‘yes/no’ question is asked and the Sun appears in the deck then the answer is often ‘yes’ or ‘no’, if the latter is a positive. If the question asked is ‘will I get the job I am going for’ and the Sun card appears, the answer is ‘yes’ but if the question asked is ‘will I lose my job’ and the Sun card appears, the answer will be ‘no’. The Sun card represents a positive outcome. It is all things playful, romantic and creative and can also represent children. In the card we see the Moon setting into its watery realms while the Sun rises in the heavens, sending its light down onto the world to illuminate everything. The Sun represents everything that is bright, sunny and optimistic and can also indicate that it is time to put yourself first and to make yourself the centre of your own world. The Sun lights the way and illuminates, so can indicate of time of clarity and of things coming to light that may have been hidden.
Reversed or with challenging cards around the Sun it is still hard to find a negative connotation. This is such a positive card that even reversed it indicates a positive outcome, though it might suggest that this is something you are still working towards. This is also a call to look at what might be blocking the Sun’s joy and light making its way to you, looking at what is blocking you from fully embracing this.
