Tarot card colors symbolism

The sun represents male or "positive" energy, while the moon represents female or "negative" energy (however, some cultures have the exact opposite interpretation, so you need to read more books and look at the specific interpretation of each deck of cards!). Under this premise, the sun and the moon are equal, and there is no distinction between good and bad.

Let's look at the relationship between the sun, moon and stars.

The sun represents male or "positive" energy, while the moon represents female or "negative" energy (however, some cultures have the exact opposite interpretation, so you need to read more books and look at the specific interpretation of each deck of cards!). Under this premise, the sun and the moon are equal, and there is no distinction between good and bad. However, in the Tarot card order, the Moon comes before the Sun. The psychological explanation is that it is because we have always been dealing with the darker side of ourselves, and after a period of transition and transformation, we gradually reach a state of perfection. During this transition, the Sun will appear on the stage later than the Moon, representing our move from the dark side to the light. (The actual explanation is that there must be one that comes first...escape~~~)

This statement and symbolism linking the sun and the moon originated in alchemy. In alchemy there are three main colors representing three different processes - black, white and yellow (some say red). Black represents the initial level of alchemy in transformation. The male and female elements are separated and recombined through many methods. The problems encountered in the recombinant process are represented by the two cards of "Devil" and "Tower". Afterwards, these black substances were successfully purified into white, represented by the two cards "Star" and "Moon". Finally, when the female (feminine, white or silver) successfully combines with the male (masculine, or gold), it becomes "gold" (also known as the "philosopher's stone", and is called the "soft stone" in the comic "Magic Circus"... hehe... ^ ^), and this stage of the process begins with the "sun" and ends with the "world".
