Lenormand Card Meanings

31. The Sun

Interpreting The Sun

The Sun is the thirty-first card of the Lenormand and symbolises optimism, positivity and success. It is an energy source, radiating with enthusiasm, joy, motivation and confidence. When this card appears in a reading, things are looking bright. However, too much sun can burn you, so if it appears in a reading make sure that The Sun isn’t blinding your better judgement by seeing all the good without seeing the truth.

The Sun is associated with the Solar Plexus Chakra and signifies your identity and ego. When in balance, The Sun represents someone confident, with a strong sense of self. When out of balance, The Sun can describe someone who is self-centred and conceited, or someone who is lacking in self-confidence or has lost their sense of identity.

The Sun is a card of exposure. The secrets hidden with The Book will be brought out into the open with The Sun. There is nowhere to hide when The Sun is shining – it is the ultimate illuminator.
