The Chariot in love

Determination carries this relationship forward through distance, disapproval or a difficult patch. Both of you are pulling, and pulling in roughly the same direction.

In love, upright

Determination carries this relationship forward through distance, disapproval or a difficult patch. Both of you are pulling, and pulling in roughly the same direction. Keep hold of the reins and do not let pride steer.

In love, reversed

Pulling in opposite directions, or forcing a relationship to go where it does not want to. Ambition or stubbornness is driving over feeling. Slow down and ask where you are both trying to get to.

As feelings

Determined and focused, these feelings move toward a goal. The Chariot suggests someone who has decided they want this connection and is willing to push past obstacles for it. They may be holding mixed emotions in check, choosing direction and effort over doubt.

As feelings, reversed

Pulled in two directions, someone's feelings may be stalled or erratic. They could be frustrated, competitive or defensive with you, or simply overwhelmed by conflicting priorities. Momentum has been lost for now, and pressure from either side tends to make things worse.

As a person

Driven, disciplined and confident, the Chariot as a person knows where they are headed. They tend to be ambitious, good under pressure and able to keep opposing impulses in check. Others are often carried along by their momentum and steadied by their sense of purpose.

As the other person in a reading

They are driven, disciplined and determined to win through, and they expect to carry the day. Expect momentum and little patience for doubt. Ride with them if you share the destination.

The other person, reversed

They have lost direction, or their drive has turned to aggression, and they may be running over people without noticing. Expect speed without steering. Step aside rather than in front.

Yes or no in love

Upright, The Chariot leans a yes; reversed, a not yet. Take the reins.
