Reversed Card Meaning

The Sun’s joys are so powerful that they cannot be beaten down even by turning the card. Even when reversed, The Sun represents life’s beauties and joys and encourages you to bask in happiness.
However, your joy may be tinged by sadness. Perhaps you are bitter that you have had to face so many trials in order to get to this place of happiness, when others have found it more easily. Maybe your fear and hesitation from years of broken promises will not allow you to enjoy what you have in front of you to the fullest extent. Do not let your past guide you in this moment. Feel free to abandon yourself to happiness, you have already abandoned yourself to despair before!
Or, your vision of your own blessings is not clear. Perhaps you are so focused on what you do not have that you do not see what is right in front of you. Take off those gray-colored glasses and see the joy right before your nose for what it really is. Use this card as a guide to examine what is really keeping you from happiness. It may not be as far off as you may think.
