VII The Chariot
Cancer
When the Chariot appears, it can be a great blessing or a stern lecture. As an outcome card it is extremely positive, showing great success, triumph, and victory. You will find that any endeavour you are currently in or any journey you have embarked upon will reach a conclusion that is more than satisfactory.
This might indicate promotions at work, success in exams, the completion of a project you have worked on for a long time or investments that pay off.
You will also find that you will make great and swift progress on any current projects or situations.
If you find yourself being called to a task, purpose, or challenge that seems difficult or insurmountable, certainly taking you out of your comfort zone. You are advised that this is an important opportunity for you, as it will offer potential for growth and progress as well as great results and achievements.
You may feel that events around you are pulling you in that direction anyway, like momentum is gathering in their life and pointing toward a certain road. The Chariot says that you should take the hint and follow this road—it will lead to amazing things! This is the call to adventure, the invitation to rise to a challenge.
The presence of the Chariot can often “speed up” things up, saying that things will happen quicker than expected and with more force.
As an advisory card, it tells you that you must have clear focus and direction; having control over yourself and the situation is necessary for progress and victory. If you lose control, direction, or focus, you will find that you are no longer in charge of your situation but rather a victim of circumstance.
This card therefore asks you what your goals are, what direction you are heading in, and how you plan to exert your will to achieve your goal.
With regards relationships or other partnerships, the Chariot can raise issues of control and power. You are advised that the relationship will be successful if you have control over yourself and the situation, but not power over the other person. Shared goals and achievements will aid the partnership.
