19-The Sun – Reversed Thoth Deck

When reversed, the Sun is still a positive card but presumably to a lesser degree. It may be that something is blocking you from fully experiencing the joy and clarity that is possible at this time. Perhaps your inflated ego is getting in the way; excessive pride is one of the faults of the sign Leo. You may not get the standing ovation you were hoping for.

Keywords Reversed: A lesser degree of the above; also pride, smugness, vanity, egotism, arrogance, unrealistic ambitions, megalomania, delayed success, lack of appreciation.

Key XIX: The Sun
Myths/Archetypes: The Egyptian god Amun-Ra. The Sun god. Apollo. Logos.
Astrology: the Sun (ruler of the Fire sign Leo)
Numerology: 1 (Magician) = 1 + 0 (Wheel of Fortune) = 1 + 9 (the Sun)

When The Sun is reversed you can pretty much take it that life is going well but that’s when life takes us by surprise.  If The Sun is unclear it may help to choose a card from the Major Arcana to provide more insight into what it is The Sun is trying to tell you.  If you had a particular issue in  mind, or want to seek clarification on something else, you can also choose again to get more guidance.
