The Chariot Card – Tarot Arcane December 2020
The month of December brings the energy of the Chariot Card to the front revealing the beginning of a movement after a period of immobility.
The Chariot Card and the Winds of Change
We have finally arrived at the end of a very peculiar year. 2020 was everything but a typical year.
The Year 2020 brought itself a double affirmation of the 20th arcanum, the Card of the Judgement. The Judgement brought the need for reevaluation of every single aspect of our lives.
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
~ William Arthur Ward
The Chariot, the seventh major arcanum of the Tarot, is associated with the letter Zain, the seventh letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Zain corresponds to our Z, and it represents mobility, restlessness, fast movements, zigzag action. It is the beginning of a movement after a period of immobility, of restrictions.
If you have an arcana of the Tarot that concerns the certainty of who we are and what we do, it is “The Chariot.” Most people are living their lives on autopilot in the face of constant difficulties and challenges. But this December, the arcanum’s message will be that every step that you may take, even the smallest one, will be of vital importance for strengthening your path.
“The Chariot” also reflects our conduct in the most diverse and adverse everyday conditions. From the Tarot perspective, December tends to be the month to focus on the important things.
The energy well directed to your personal studies and work, for example, will be dignified. Through the changes that took place and the choices made in the past 3 months, you start to feel the weight of certain complications in your daily life. But with the most profound sense of courage, you will be able to face what is coming. Being face to face with the challenges makes you see that it is needed to have more control of your own decisions. Even more so when patience and chilliness are required to resolve issues and move on.
The Chariot Card as an Archetype
Being a symbol of shift and evolution of thought, and bringing conditions favorable to human comfort and subsistence, “the Chariot” symbolizes all vehicles for locomotion. It is the first “machine” to appear among the Major Arcana.
The Chariot Card is represented by a triumphal carriage in the oldest decks, showing that the card is following an allegorical parade. The ways of transporting goods or messages are under the control of this arcane. So are trains, airplanes, post offices, buses, subways, taxis, bicycles, rockets, and other resourcefulness that make possible and also facilitate the routine, they are all influences by the archetype. “The Chariot” is seen as the arcane of technology and boldness.
“The Chariot,” now in December, gives you the willpower to celebrate the news in your routine and to plan the final stretch of 2020 better. In fact, the term “routine” must be reconsidered over the days, as unforeseen surprises and everyday surprises tend to be constant until the end of this period.
The feeling of independence should start building up again as you move towards achieving your goals. Concentration and determination are two ingredients that, mixed with a positive attitude, can result in your endeavors’ success. The month of the Chariot is the period in which you can take the reins of your destiny and ride in the direction of your own aspirations. You need to take it easy, without putting “the Chariot” in front of the horse. Adopt a more flexible attitude towards life and the paths that are opening in front of you.
Consider that physical displacements, such as moving from one home to another, or changing work, can also occur with such a mobile archetype. It is time to cooperate with the changes and being attentive to the situation cycles. Be aware of your surroundings: Being a small plant close to you that is demanding care and attention to develop itself, to your personal relationships and long-term endeavors. Make better use of the time at your disposal and try by all means to fulfill yourself as a person.
The Clouds that were blurring our horizons are starting to be dispersed. Be patient. We are almost there.
