Graphic description of the letter:
The chariot card shows us the figure of a man, a charioteer who drives a chariot pulled by sphinxes. He is located under a six-pointed canopy-like mantle, and decorated with multiple six-pointed stars, which represent the celestial influences on the work done by this card.
The crescents on the man’s shoulders are external to refer to the formative world. The symbols on the robe are alchemical, representing the spiritual transformation of man.
The square represents the earth, a sign of willpower. The laurel and star in the wreath indicate man’s highest achievement in spiritual evolution.
The wings on the front of the chariot represent inspiration and the Hindu sign the union of positive and negative. Black and white sphinxes have the same meaning, positive and negative, yin and yang.
The Charioteer has no reins, only the magician’s wand to drive the chariot, which is controlled through willpower in the same way that the magician does.
The city is behind him, indicating that he has turned his back on civilization and materialism to seek spiritual answers.
