tarot - universal goddess tarot
Eos, the Roman Aurora, is the sister to the Sun god Helios and the Moon goddess Selene. She is the daughter of Hyperion, the Titan of Light, and Theia, the Titan goddess of heavenly light. Eos is mentioned often by Homer in his epics the Iliad and the Odyssey, where She is "rosy-fingered", "saffron-robed" and "early-rising". Homer names the horses who pull Her chariot across the sky Lampos (Firebright) and Phaethon (Daybright).
Eos had a brief relationship with the god Ares, and greatly angered Aphrodite. In retaliation, Aphrodite caused Eos to fall in love with many mortals, relationships that were doomed to fail. Eos, however, did give brith to several children, including the Winds and the Morning Star.
Like the traditional Chariot card, Eos' card means that you need to exercise control over your life or the forces that surround you. While She may make driving Her chariot look effortless, we mortals would find it impossible. We need to concentrate on driving our own chariots--our own lives.
Reversed, Eos' card means that you are losing control of your life or of the situation. On a more mundane level, it may point to trouble with your main mode of transportation.
