The Chariot

The Chariot is a card of force and victory. You’ve gone through trials and jumped through hurdles, and through your own strength and control you’ve emerged triumphant. Nasturtiums are shaped like the trumpets that sound at that victory. Their bright blooms represent the fire of your strength. But in reverse, that fire can lose control and burn you right back. The Chariot is also a reminder to be mindful of hubris, lest you steer yourself off the road that garnered your win in the first place.
