In tarot, horse and rider are inseparable. The horse gives its rider its virtues and the power to move forward. The rider gives the horse direction and purpose. Together, they are always the central figures of a story-of a significant story or important chapter in the life of whoever comes to tarot for a reading.

SUNS

Hello, and welcome to our class on the suns of tarot. Suns appear in seven cards-The Fool, The Hierophant, The Lovers, The Chariot, Death, Temperance, and The Sun.

Suns, like moons and stars, change their meanings, references, and significance from card to card. You may remember from earlier classes that moons differ by their phases and stars by the number of their points or rays. For suns, the difference is found in what sky or heaven they appear in.

There is an alchemical sun, a Qabalistic sun, a Masonic sun, an Egyptian sun, an astrological sun, a mythological sun, a psychological sun, and a scientific sun-all forms of what the mind makes of the observable sun in the sky.

Each of these suns is fascinating in its own right. Each sheds light on ourselves and the world we live in. All of these suns are a large part of the answer to the questions of who we are and where we come from. We have only a few pages to look at these suns, and because space is limited, we will not be blinded by what we see. However, if we had unlimited pages, what there is to see would be dazzling.

To mention moons and stars here is useful as a contrast, a background of difference against which suns can be measured. Moons and stars are fully defined by what they are: objects in the night sky. As objects, their significance ranges from that of physical bodies to that of spiritual entities, even deities. But whatever they are, they are.

Suns, however, although they are symbolic and physical objects, are also powers and sources of power. You could go so far as to say that they are the source of all the power there is.

If you live physically, the sun is the ultimate source of your life's energy and being.

If you live psychologically, the sun's power is the source and nature of your awareness.

If you have a spiritual life, the sun is the radiant source and nature of your spirit. If anything, including yourself, exists at all in any form, it is the sun from which it springs and by whose power it continues.

Were the sun on any level of being to be extinguished, all life and being on that level would be extinguished with it. This cannot be said of any other phenomenon in all the many worlds. So the one thing you will want to remember about suns among all the things that we discuss in this lesson is that the sun is power.

For a moment, contemplate this statement. The sun is power. Can you validate that statement from your own experience, or do you question it?

Now let's take some time to look at the sun through several different pairs of eyes.
