I recently got SUN and STRENGTH as the "key" to what will help me in my current situation.
(I used my Marseilles deck, no reversals.)
I get that both cards are about freedom, creativity, consciousness guiding primal instinct, maybe what we'd call the masculine principle. I mean, they sound totally glorious and wonderful... Sure, I'd love to be the Sun, to be Strength. I'd love to be a radiant, primal, powerful creature of consciousness.
But it just seems easier said than done to me. Some cards as advice I find easier to follow, like Empress or Hermit. But with the higher level Majors (I follow the system where Strength is numbered 11, not 8), I find it harder to just "will" these qualities into happening. While I'm talking, I guess I'll mention that I see the Wands as lower echoes of both Sun and Strength, and I have a similar issue there. Maybe this is a personal flaw, and it's hard for me to just summon courage and vitality for their own sake?
I guess I'm writing here to see what your thoughts are about how to achieve SUN-STRENGTH, steps to take, that kind of thing. I've seen other posts on this forum about this combo, but I was not satisfied with the answers. Maybe we can generate more clarity here?
Thank you!
