The Chariot as a Tarot Birth Card

You are determined and goal-oriented, with a strong capacity to push through obstacles. You tend to feel most alive when moving toward something specific.

As a personality card, The Chariot appears when your digit total is 7 (or reduces to 7). It is then both your personality and soul card.

As a soul card, The Chariot is paired with The Tower.
