How To Interpret The Chariot
A strong willed person is portrayed in the Chariot, so strong that they are operating the chariot pulled by animals without holding any reins. It is moving by the strength of that person’s own will. The canopy of stars over the Chariot symbolizes that now is a time of celestial protection for the driver, who is completely in control of her life now. A seven in the tarot is always very challenging, so it will take a great deal of focus and mental strength for the person to achieve their goal, and the effect may be a fleeting one. Motherpeace has chosen an Amazon woman from Africa to be in the driver’s seat, and now she has the courage necessary to continue forward on her journey. She is guided by a strong sense of purpose, and can trust her instincts that she is headed in the right direction. She must draw on all her energies to be strong when the going gets hard. The Amazon woman holds a double headed axe for self protection. The chariot is also decorated with a Gorgon head to scare anyone who may try to delay or interfere with her journey. This person is very disciplined and determined to succeed, and knows how to take care of herself. If the card is reversed, she has too many doubts to make this serious decision; it will overwhelm her at this time. She may have to wait for a while, then pick herself back up and try again later. The chariot will overturn itself or worse if she continues onward while not feeling strong.
