Happy Friday the 13th! I hope you all have had a great day. I definitely have. Thanks to @cultpartynyc for hosting me for readings and to @goldendomeschool for organizing the goddess of love procession, and to all the awesome people I got to meet today.

Onto the card: The Sun is pretty much the main “everything is cool” card. Even the creepy old books that seem to predict some new way of feeling shitty in each card tend to agree that The Sun is pretty good.
And I think that’s because as creatures living on earth, we are LITERALLY SOLAR POWERED. There’s a reason ancient (and current) people worship the sun, and it’s the reason we just feel happier on sunny days. We talk about light as a metaphor for understanding. We say we feel “warm” when we experience kindness. We sense the sun’s elemental life-giving nature even if we aren’t conscious of it. That’s The Sun card, just shining some clarity, energy and joy into your life today.

The sun is always there, even when we don’t see it, so this clarity and light is also constantly available to us. You can tap into it when you need it. If you’re having a tough day, invite some Sun card energy. The Sun also works with the inner child, who also always exists, so you can access this energy through things that are fun for kid-you. Go outside and run around, draw a picture of the sun, sing a song, play. It might sound hokey to adult-you, but it is incredibly effective. Playing and connecting with the sun energy helps remind you not that things could eventually be ok, but that they ARE ok right now, and that there’s a giant ball of scientifically proven energy out there keeping you and everything you know alive, day and night. It’s such a weird, wonderful confluence of events that add up to your existence, and it’s good to remember how young, small, and special you are.
