To understand Goddess Tarot, start here: [What is Vidawheel Goddess Tarot?]
In the silver mist of Artemis, the girl learned the hard lesson of navigating by intuition. She survived the night without a map. As she steps out of the clinging fog with a heart that has been clarified by darkness, the eastern sky begins to whiten. The shadows of the night do not just fade; they are dissolved by an undeniable presence.
The first ray of dawn breaks the horizon, striking the earth with a gentle yet irreversible power. It is not a blinding flash like The Tower, but a steady, warming embrace. In the fields that were once barren under The Wheel of Fortune, new buds are pushing through the soil. The air is thick with the scent of wet earth and waking flowers. The silence of the void is replaced by the hum of life returning.
In this center of radiant light, Demeter Goddess appears.
She is no longer the grieving mother of winter. Now, she wears a robe woven of golden light, as if the heat of the entire summer flows through her veins. She stands tall, holding a heavy bundle of full wheat—the ultimate symbol of Abundance, vitality, and the promise that life always returns.
She opens her arms, letting the heat fall upon the girl and the vast land. Her gaze is warm, holding the deep, unshakable affirmation of a mother who knows that her child is safe.
She speaks, her voice resonating like the noon bells:
"You have crossed the long night and the twisting illusions. You have survived the cold. Now, you must learn a harder lesson: to allow yourself to be happy. True abundance and love are not rewards you must earn through suffering; they are the natural state of your soul. They are energy overflowing from your own heart. Do not be afraid to shine. The more you share this light, the more it grows. You are not a vessel to be filled; you are the fire itself."

The sunlight penetrates the girl’s skin, reaching deep into her bones. The warmth seeps into the old cracks left by heartbreak and fear, relaxing the parts of her soul that had shrunk in the dark. For the first time, she understands: Abundance is not dependency. The Sun does not come from the outside world; it is rising, finally, inside her.

II. Deep Dive into Tarot Card Meanings: The Sun Meaning

2.1 Rider-Waite Perspective: The Soul’s Victory

In the Rider-Waite system, The Sun depicts a naked child riding a white horse under a blazing sun. The child has no armor, no clothes, no defense—symbolizing a return to absolute authenticity and innocence.

Unlike the complex layers of previous cards, The Sun Tarot Meaning is simple and profound: It is the clarity that comes after the shadow work. The sunflowers in the background turn their faces fully to the light, representing a consciousness that has stopped hiding. It teaches us that Success is not about conquering the world, but about conquering the fear of being yourself. It is the ultimate card of Unconditional Blessing.

2.2 Tarot de Marseille Perspective: Connection and Fraternity

In the Tarot de Marseille, The Sun (Le Soleil) shines its rays (some straight, some wavy, representing heat and light) onto two figures standing together. They are often touching, holding hands, or helping one another.

This system emphasizes that Abundance is relational. The Sun warms everyone equally. It dissolves the walls between people. It suggests that true happiness is found in Sincere Connection and fraternity. When the light hits our traumas, the ice melts, and we can finally touch the heart of another without fear. The Sun reminds us: Growth is not a lonely explosion; it is a shared warmth.

2.3 Goddess Tarot Perspective: You Are the Source

In the VidaWheel Goddess Tarot system, The Sun is carried by Demeter Goddess in her full glory. She represents the biological and spiritual truth of Life Force.
After the loss of Death and the confusion of The Moon, Demeter brings the most tangible healing: The return of fertility. She teaches women that they are the creators of their own reality.
The Sun Meaning in this deck:
  • Self-Awakening of Abundance
  • Shifting from "Need" to "Create"
  • The Courage to Be Visible
  • You are the Light Source

Demeter teaches the modern woman: Abundance is not something you chase; it is something you become.

III. Demeter Goddess Myth & 21st Century Female Power

In modern life, the Sun Phase often arrives quietly. It is not always a loud applause or a lottery win. Instead, it is a steady, unshakeable glow from within.
For many women, this is harder than the darkness. We are taught to be humble, to make ourselves small, to not take up too much space. We feel guilty for being happy when others are suffering. We suffer from Imposter Syndrome, feeling we don't deserve the light.

But The Sun challenges this scarcity mindset. It represents a critical awakening: Abundance starts the moment you believe you are worthy of it.

A woman in The Sun energy dares to express her truth, dares to enjoy her body, dares to love without defense, and dares to stand in the center of her life. She no longer dims her light to make others comfortable.
Demeter Goddess reminds you: Your joy does not rob others; it feeds them. Like the sun, your happiness is a resource for the world. The question is not "What do you have?" but "How much do you allow yourself to shine?"
When a woman chooses to stand in her own light, the shadows behind her disappear.
