Individual Card Meanings

The Chariot

戰車

The Chariot depicts a warrior standing in a chariot pulled by two sphinxes—one black, one white—representing opposing forces that must be controlled and directed. This card embodies triumph through willpower, the ability to overcome obstacles through sheer determination. The charioteer does not hold reins; he controls the sphinxes through force of will alone. When the Chariot appears, victory is possible, but it requires focus, discipline, and the ability to harness conflicting energies toward a single goal. Move forward with confidence and purpose. The obstacles before you will yield to your determination.
