Major Arcana · card VII
The Chariot
drive, direction, willpower
Reading it upright
A driver holds two sphinxes pulling in different directions with no reins. Progress here comes from will and focus. It is often read as a win that takes effort to steer.
Reading it reversed
Reversed, the direction is lost or force replaces focus. Two goals may be pulling against each other.
Journal prompt
What two forces in me want different things, and which one is driving?
Study tip. Draw The Chariot on purpose, set it in front of you, and write three things you can literally see in the picture before you look at any notes. Your own observations will stay with you longer than a keyword list.
Notes on this site are a starting point. Different decks and readers interpret cards differently, and a reading is never a substitute for professional advice.
