The Chariot upright
The Chariot is determination. Upright, it says you can win this, if you choose one direction and drive toward it. The two sphinxes are the opposing pulls in you: head and heart, fear and desire. You don't need to silence either. You need to hold them on the same road. It's a strong card for travel, competition and hard-won progress.
Victory here is earned, love. The card rewards focus far more than luck.
The Chariot reversed
Reversed, the chariot veers. You may be trying to steer too many things at once, or pushing so hard that you've lost sight of where you were going. Stop, pick one direction, and loosen your grip enough to steer.
One card is a sentence. Three cards are an answer.
