The Sun

The sun shines down on a naked child riding a horse. The child wears a feather and a wreath like the Fool. His nudity shows that he has nothing to hide. The four sunflowers behind the child symbolize the four elements, which now turn toward him instead of the sun for their ultimate development. The child holds a red banner representing the conquest of life in his hand; the left hand which symbolizes the subconscious. The meaning of this is that this conquest is a skill that is now natural for the child and he can perform it without conscious thought.

This card is about new beginnings. The sun will shine for you and everything will seem to fall into place. You will possess youthful energy and clarity of mind.
