THE SUN

Description

A naked child sits upon a white horse. The child is waving an orange banner in victory.  The sun flowers are in bloom and the sun is shining.    The sun's rays take up more that half of the card suggesting that the sun is the focus of attention in the card, more than the child and the horse who are basking in it's rays. 
The child and the horse represent freedom and purity and as the banner is like a war banner, I believe it is representing the truimph over the moon.  Just as there was night in the Moon card, so to there must be day - clearly this is illustrated in the progression in the Tarot from the Moon to the Sun. 
This is a positive image -one that suggests purity and hope.

Divinatory Meaning 

The Sun is a good card to see in a reading.  It tells of good times coming and times that are going to be joyous for everyone.  It is a good card for family and friends and it is also a card that lets the person know that the bad times are behind them.  When asking a yes or no question, this card means that the answer will certainly be yes.  This is one of the lucky cards in the deck and one that can always be read favourably.
