Major arcana · XIX

The Sun

Plain, uncomplicated good. The Sun is the card with the least subtext in the deck: clarity, warmth, and things being what they appear to be — a state that is hard to trust precisely because it asks nothing of you.

The harder edge

Some people find ease harder than difficulty, and go looking for the catch. The catch is that there isn't one.

The Sun by position

The same card says something different depending on where it lands in a spread.

As the foundationwhere this came from: Something here was genuinely good. Don't let later difficulty rewrite it.
As the currentwhat is live now: This is working. Notice it, and resist the urge to complicate it.
As what is formingthe near horizon: It gets clearer and warmer. Straightforwardly, without a hidden cost.
As a single cardwhat to carry this week: Enjoy the thing that is going well this week, out loud.
