The Chariot acknowledges progression, advancement, and moving forward. It’s like getting the “green light” to move along on the path that you’re on.

The Chariot can also suggest that life is taking you in a new direction. If you’re feeling led to travel down a new path, The Chariot is encouraging you to seek guidance about this new direction. This guidance may come from going within and checking your inner GPS, as this card is numbered 7, the number of spirituality, self-awareness, and insight.

If you’re feeling pulled in two different directions, The Chariot is asking you to consider the middle of the two extremes; the path might not necessarily be “either-or”—but instead “and” or “both.”

If you’re into angels, The Chariot reminds you that the angels are your constant companions, and that when you move down different roads in life, different angels come along for the ride.

For instance, the angel I associate with this card is Archangel Metatron, which is why I have the sacred geometric shape/pattern known as “Metatron’s Cube” in the image. The Merkaba (another name for the geometric shape/pattern) translates to the “chariot of God.” If this resonates with you in any way, The Chariot may be leading you down the path of working with Archangel Metatron through sacred geometry.

No matter what road you decide to take, whether the road is well-traveled or off the beaten path, The Chariot wants you to remember this: Life is about both the journey and the destination.
