07 The Chariot: Drive and Determination
- by Myra Eagles
10 long heavy Wands are often depicted as a burden being carried by a lone person in this card. They have a path to follow, a place to take the Wands, but with heads down and eyes closed, it’s hard to concentrate on the goal, or even remember why they’re doing it. The difficult weight of the burden and responsibilities pulling them down causes a distraction from the bigger picture, but help is there if they choose to seek it.
