What Does The Sun Tarot Card Mean?

The Sun tarot card meaning is among the most uplifting ones in the deck. It represents joy, vitality, and success. If you draw the Sun tarot card during the reading, lucky you — expect enlightenment, clarity, and warmth in all aspects of your life. As any good tarot reading expert will tell you, a period of success and big achievements is upon you, so whatever you’ve been doing, keep doing it, as you’re on the right track.

As you can see from the picture above, the Sun tarot meaning is depicted as a radiant sun with a joyful face surrounded by rays, flowers, and sparkles. The woman (or, in some cases, child) below symbolizes innocence and childlike excitement, which are also among the things represented by the Sun card meaning.

The Sun Tarot Love Meaning for Romantic Relationships

The upright Sun card represents a successful relationship and suggests that you can make your relationship even better by putting more effort into getting closer to each other. Even if there is something you aren’t fully satisfied with about your current partnership, keep pushing through. The Sun love outcome suggests that your relationship will soon bring you happiness and fulfillment.

If you’re single, the Sun in tarot in an upright position is a sign that it’s the perfect time to start a relationship. This card encourages warm-hearted connections and invites you to open your heart to the people around you, perhaps including someone who’s trying to pursue you for a while.

The Sun shines bright even after a short period of cloudy weather. Suppose you’re in a relationship with someone, and you are facing some issues with your partner or not feeling the same love and happiness as before. Don’t fall into despair! The Sun reversed love signals that things will be sorted out soon, and you’ll be happy once again.

If you’re single, this card suggests that a promising relationship is coming your way, and you should open yourself up to accept it. At the moment, your negative outlook prevents you from fully embracing the good things that might soon enter your love life. You need to do your best to fix that.

The Sun as a Person or How Others See You

A person represented by the Sun is radiant, confident, and full of positive energy. They are the type of person who lightens and warms up any environment, effortlessly lifting those around them. They are outgoing, sunny, and spontaneous, and they have a contagious optimism that makes others feel safe and inspired.

They are honest, genuine, and unafraid to be themselves, so they are an open book to the people they trust. In relationships, the Sun person will tend to be encouraging, loving, and supportive, always eager to share joy and understanding with others. They are full of success, vitality, and inner knowing.

The Sun Yes or No Question Answered

In response to a yes or no question, the upright Sun is a resounding yes. Whatever it is you have in mind, it will be a complete success. Don’t let your fears and doubts get in the way; in this particular case, they are ungrounded.

If you draw the Sun reversed yes or no, the answer is between a maybe and a no. The thing you’ve been planning isn’t fully doomed, but the success may be delayed or not as straightforward as you hoped.

The Sun Reversed Position in a Reading

The Sun in reverse position stands for lack of enthusiasm, sadness, depression, pessimism, and unrealistic expectations. However, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re in a bad situation; it merely represents your feelings and your focus on negativity.

In short, the Sun upside down is a sign that you’re losing sight and being unrealistic, but you can get over this if you try. The deck encourages you to rekindle your inner light and work toward rediscovering the joy of life you’ve recently lost. We promise that the clouds will soon pass, and you will be happy again.

The Sun Upright in a Tarot Spread

The Sun generally stands for positivity, optimism, and feelings of fulfillment. When the card is in the upright position, it signals that joy and happiness are coming to you. It also represents success and confidence. So, continue whatever you’re doing, and you’ll get the joy of success soon.

Also, the Sun in an upright position encourages you to bask in the joy of your achievements and to embrace the world with open arms. If you’ve recently done something well (say, exceeded even your own expectations on your most recent project), give yourself some time to enjoy your success and feel proud of your accomplishments.

The Sun as Feelings of Happiness

The Sun as feelings represents happiness, warmth, and joy. This person is confident, optimistic, and at peace. They may feel very connected to you, viewing you as a source of light and joy in their life. The Sun in love represents loving feelings, excitement, and emotional fulfillment. There is openness, honesty, and gratitude for each other.

Additionally, the Sun reflects a level of clarity and certainty. No underlying fears or doubts — just a solid feeling of contentment and excitement. This person likely feels safe, inspired, and deeply joyful in your presence. As for the Sun reversed as feelings, the meaning would be the opposite.
