Now that the excitement and fun of the New Year are starting to fade away, you might want to start planning the year ahead to continue making the most of what is out there and surrounding you. Let the Tarot card for 2023 help you plan your goals, improve yourself and realise intuitively-aligned projects.
How can Tarot help me in 2023?
Tarot has been used in many ways for the prediction of events (psychic prediction as in fortune tellers you may see in films), but only recently with the expanding use of social media and online sites, has Tarot been recognised as a useful intuitive life guidance tool. What better way to use Tarot, than to use it as a guide for the whole year ahead?
I have always loved doing Tarot readings to help people find their own way in life to realise their situation. As a firm believer in self-help first to solve my problems or even to find my life goals, Tarot has time and time again given me answers and goals which are aligned with me and what is going on in my life at the time.
This post will help you find your goals for the year ahead and advice on how to harness the Chariot’s energy to realise them. You do not even need to be able to read Tarot to do this exercise. You will find step-by-step instructions below to make 2023 more intuitively planned for you, by YOU! 😊
The Tarot card of the Year 2023
Using numerology, the yearly Tarot card is worked out by simply adding the numbers of the year ahead to one single digit. Each year is represented by a card which is the universal energy that is prevalent ahead. Knowing the archetype energy of the yearly Tarot card can help us achieve our goals in intuitive alignment with the universal energy around us.
“2023” is represented by the card, The Chariot. The Chariot is number 7 in the major Arcana suit, 2 + 0 + 2 + 3 = 7.
The Chariot's Energy
The Chariot card shows a man riding on a chariot looking straight ahead. His focus is on a goal and with the crown of stars on his head, his goal is aligned with his life path. There is little distraction around him, with his home in the background, behind him. This does not mean he can ignore his home, but more likely, that his goals and drive should aim to improve his personal and home life.
There is lots of energy this year which can be harnessed to realise your life goals. However, the card has a static feel which implies that you need to do the work, things won’t happen without your effort. Potential is there, but take hold of the Chariot’s energy to push yourself through your projects and goals this year. Be determined, strong and push the boundaries.
The Chariot’s archetype can help you find the right intuitive solution to your questions this year. The main energy with this card is “determination and persistence” in following your life path. You not only need to consider how to use this energy in your personal life, but also in your collective or extended communities. The extended circle can include your local community, national and international networks.
The other main aspect of this card is aligning yourself with values and goals that are most beneficial to you. You are the only real person who knows what you truly wish to achieve in life, even if you are not fully aware of this. Working towards a truly personal beneficial goal will help shape your determination and how you approach realising your dreams.
Keywords
Keywords can give you an idea of the archetype energy of the card. Below is a list of the energies that can be found with the Chariot card. When the Chariot energy is upright or seen in a positive light, this card is linked with success. At the opposite end of the energy spectrum, you can see the energy is broken up and failures or challenges can be expected in your goals.
- Determination – hard work – focused – success – ego – ambition
- Lack of ambition – indecisive – stubborn – ruthless – chaos – obsession
Using the Chariot's Energy in 2023
The year ahead is asking us to align our goals with what is true to our hearts. It is time to concentrate and devote energy to realising our dreams. Whether this is in the home or workplace, you should stop wasting time and energy on goals which are not realistic or do not really add value to our lives. Remember that the value of things will vary for individuals, so not all goals are necessarily work-related to improve the value of our lives. You may want to look at your personal life or even reassess your moral and spiritual beliefs and behaviours
To prepare, set aside some quality time aside to consider how you can apply the Chariot’s energy to your life in 2023. At least 10 to 15 minutes is recommended for a good reflective session. You may find that you need more than one or two sessions to get the most out of this activity.
Grab a pen and paper, or if you prefer digital, use your favourite journal or note-taking app. Use the questions below to help structure your reflection. These questions reflect the Chariot’s archetype energy. You do not need to answer all of the questions as they are not all going to be relevant, but use them as a stimulus to your note-taking.
I would recommend trying to answer at least the first four questions, but do add your own questions as you find relevant. After all, the Chariot is asking us to be bolder and more determined in our approach this year.
Questions to consider
Core Questions
- What goals align with my life purpose?

What Next?
You may already have some idea of your goals for this year but may lack detail on how to realise them. This is where Tarot comes into its own, by intuitively finding solutions that are available and unique to you. If you don’t read Tarot, you should consider getting a reading to get more in-depth clarity or even to help lay out a plan on what you need to do next.
