The The Sun card from the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot

On the card

A child rides a white horse beneath a large sun with a human face, a red banner overhead, sunflowers along a garden wall.

Upright

  • Clarity
  • Warmth
  • Plain joy

Nothing is veiled on this card, which is the whole of its traditional meaning: things seen plainly, and gladness that does not need explaining.

Reversed

  • Dimmed
  • Overexposed
  • Delayed

Reversed, the light is obstructed rather than gone — a good thing not yet arrived, held at arm's length, or so insisted upon that it has stopped being felt.

About this deck

The artwork is the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot, drawn by Pamela Colman Smith to Arthur Edward Waite's direction and first published in 1909. It has passed into the public domain, which is why it can be shown here in full — but it is her work, and the reason this deck became the one nearly every other deck answers to.
