What does the tarot card the chariot mean?

Answer 1

The Chariot is the number 7 of the major arcana

It has various meanings depending on the deck of cards

It depicts a man in armour either sitting or standing on a chariot.

Again depending on the deck it has either two horses or two sphynxes to pull it, but for the moment the chariot is not moving.

The charioteer has a definite mood of self confidence in the journey which he is about to start, he has prepared or is in the process of preparing for a new adventure.

On another level, it is said that he has correctly answered the sphynx' riddle and has a profound knowledge of the mysteries.

On a spiritual level, it signifies inward concentration and meditation

On a material level, it means putting affairs in order and mentally prepare for a new journey.

Hope that helps :)
