Well, let me tell you somethin’ about this here tarot thing. My granddaughter, she’s always goin’ on about it. Says it helps her figure things out. She’s got these cards, see, with pictures on ’em. Two of ’em are the moon and the sun. Now, you’d think they’re different as night and day, wouldn’t ya?
That sun card, it’s all bright and shiny. Like a good summer day when you can hang your laundry out to dry and it’s dry before you can even finish your sweet tea. She says it means good things. Like when you finally get that stubborn mule to plow the field right. Success, she calls it. And happiness, like when you find a twenty dollar bill in your old apron pocket. Everybody likes that sun card. Full of energy and power. You know, like a good, strong cup of coffee in the morning.
Then there’s the moon card. Now, that one’s a little trickier. It’s kinda like when you’re walkin’ home at night and you can’t quite see where you’re steppin’. Could be a hole in the road, could be a snake. Gives ya the shivers. It is all about that intuition, that gut feelin’. Like, you know somethin’ is up, but you can’t quite put your finger on it. Full of dreams and feelings, like the heart of a woman.
My granddaughter, she says the moon card ain’t bad, though. Just different. Says it’s about knowin’ things deep down. Like how you know when it’s gonna rain, even when the sky is blue. Or how a mama knows when her baby’s sick, even before they start cryin’. That’s the moon card for ya. And the stars, they are like those little twinkly lights, guidin’ you along.
She says these two cards, the sun and the moon, they go together. Like a man and a woman. Or day and night. Can’t have one without the other. You need both to have a full life. She reads them cards together, you know? Like the sun helps to shine the light on the moon. Get me?
These tarot cards, they show you that life ain’t always easy. Sometimes it is clear as a bell, all sunshine and roses. That’s the sun card talkin’. But other times, it’s like walkin’ through a dark forest, not knowin’ what’s ahead. That’s the moon card. But you gotta go through both, she says. Makes you stronger, wiser. It is like a journey, she says, a journey to know yourself better.
Here’s a list of things I reckon the sun tarot card means:
- Good times, like a good harvest.
- Feelin’ happy, like when the grandkids come to visit.
- Things goin’ your way, like when the price of eggs goes up.
- Energy and power, you will have it.
And here’s what that moon tarot card is probably sayin’:
- Listen to your gut, like when you know somethin’ ain’t right.
- Pay attention to your dreams, they might be tellin’ ya somethin’.
- Sometimes you just don’t know, and that’s okay.
- Intuition is important.
You see, life is like that sometimes. Sometimes it’s clear as a bell. Other times, it’s all murky and you can’t see nothin’. You gotta trust your gut. That’s what she says, anyway. Says those tarot cards help you figure it all out. You should trust your instincts to deal with life’s uncertainties. When you get both the Sun and the Moon cards, it means you are on a self-discovery journey, all about change. The Sun and the Moon are like two sides of the same coin. You need both for a good life. You gotta face your fears. It ain’t all black and white.
I still think it’s a bunch of hooey, but she seems to like it. Maybe there is somethin’ to it. Who knows. But I got my own way of figurin’ things out. Been doin’ it for years. Don’t need no fancy cards to tell me what’s what. But if it helps her, that’s all that matters, I reckon. She says the sun is about doin’ and the moon is about feelin’. I guess that makes sense. You need both in life, that’s for sure. To get through the light and dark, that’s what tarot is about, she says. Well, that is it. Hope this clears up the sun and moon tarot thing for you.
