Here is what I think…The chariot moves forward with the willpower of its driver. This card is calling us towards what is next, that which is our target. it is the ultimate keep your eye on the ball card and drives us towards all things progress, achievement, and product-oriented. A feeling we can well identify with in today’s world. Go go go…but my advice is be careful not to miss the journey. Sometimes the clarity is in the movement, in the way it feels in our body to move, and in not exactly knowing where we are.

BE CLEAR WITH YOURSELF.

TAROT BONUS: If you have a tarot deck and want to explore more about how all this willpower and change has shown up in certain areas of your life, look at the minor arcana sevens.
Seven of pentacles for clarity around work/money/family - What was it like to have patience?
Seven of swords for clarity around mental issues - When could I have asked for help that I didn’t?
Seven of wands for clarity around creative and spiritual things- What decisions did I make just for myself even when others disagreed?
Seven of cups for clarity around love and connection- What decision brought the most confusion?
Is it making sense yet?
