The Sun can be blinding
The Sun is often interpreted as happiness, joy and positivity. But I often think of the Tarot de Marseille version that has not one, but two children. It appears as if one is blind and being guided by the other.
This puts an interesting spin on the Sun bringing in the in the idea that the light, although pure and bringing clarity, can be blinding.
This brings to mind the discomfort that can come with spiritual growth and the stripping away of the ego and worldly illusions. Or even the fact that truth, while enlightening can be hard to accept.
In Jungian psychology the idea of the golden shadow describes repressing our own power and positive traits (light) out of fear and shame (discomfort) which could be seen as this same idea on a personal level.
