7The Chariot
Arcanum 7 of 22.
What the card is
The card of forward motion. The Chariot is momentum pointed somewhere: drive, discipline, and going through an obstacle rather than around it. It covers persistence and the wins that come of it. What it concerns is movement, including how difficult stopping can be.
The same paragraph stands behind this number on every chart that holds it. It describes the card, not the person holding it.
Where it can land
A Destiny Matrix chart has nine seats and each one holds a number from 1 to 22. Any of the nine can hold 7.
Whichever of them holds it, the card is the same card, and 7 covers persistence and the wins that come of it. What a seat decides is the register it is read in, and there are six of those across the nine, because the four corners share one. What each register actually reads as, in words written to the person whose chart it is, sits behind that number on a chart rather than here.
- Day point
Character: how a person acts, and what comes naturally.
- Month point
Feeling: how it moves through a person, and what they need to feel safe.
- Year point
The tasks of the first half of life: the work it keeps setting.
- Karmic point
The lesson carried: the pattern that repeats until it is worked.
- Center
What the soul rests on: the thing that genuinely feeds a person.
- The four corners
Each corner is a pattern handed down. The two family lines run as diagonals, which is why each name appears twice: father from the top left to the bottom right, mother from the top right to the bottom left.
