Appearance:

Surrounded by the Zodiac, the Sun, our most important star.  Shining brightly upon us, and portrayed as a yellow Lotus blossom. 

The petals of the sun-flower are made up of concentric rings. 

A halo of pure white light surrounds the lotus and fans-out into rays of sunlight, whilst at the same time zodiacal light beams in on the Sun.

This hieroglyph indicates that there are still initiates walking our Earth, harboring solar secrets, some call this mysterious information "ineffable".

The golden rays are shining down on a fertile hillside. 

As the Earth reaches upwards, a golden ring wraps all the way around the hilltop, and two buttons are stamped in metals at the bottom. These buttons are symbols of the Rose Cross.

Seemingly without a care, the twins dance naked in the sunlight. They are standing next to each other in the position of the number 11, and they are raising their arms in a "V" sign.  In agreement, both twins are reaching for the heavens, unrestrained, yet morally held in-check by the presence of the stamped medallions and the golden Ring of Rosie.

We have an emblem for our current Aeon and a prediction of the coming Aquarian Aeon, in nature herself reaching for the heavens, and surrounded by the golden ring of moral character. This ring is holding the laws-of-nature in-check, which is the same as the hieroglyph of the Rosicrucian buttons.

The rays of the sun hit the frame of this card in Aquarian refraction, with subtle Piscean residuals. These colored reflections represent for the current transformation from the Age of Pisces, into the Age of Aquarius.

All light is made up of outgoing and incoming light. The incoming rays are sent out from the Astrological realms directly into our universe, where we soak them up, and where the Sun magickally processes them into the golden light that we are made of through the friction of manifestation.  Initiates of the past would have stated implicitly that the Sun was not hot, and that all perceived heat was generated from within the earth.

Interpretation:

Like XVII Star, this card will illuminate a reading more than define it. This would be normal as the Sun and the Stars are made of the same essence. The difference with the Sun card, is that its blessings will address the material world and its manifestations on a level that is defined by the surrounding cards.

For example the XIX Sun can shed light on a situation. 

Combined with the Hierophant it would signify a confirmation in a newly found understanding.

The Princess of Disks combined with the XIX Sun, the 7 of Swords, V Hierophant, and the Princess of Swords would signify that your younger materialistic sister just realized that she will never understand her emotional sister.

The Prince of Swords combined with XIX Sun, 7 of Cups, IV Emperor, and the 4 of Wands could signify that your immature buddy may be caught at work drinking and lose his job.

The same Prince of Swords combined with XIX Sun, the Knight of Cups, the 3 of Wands, and XIV ART card could symbolize that this same person found out that one of his friends was not a contributing factor to this firing.

For the most part it is very nice to see XIX Sun in any reading. The lesser amount of cards that are involved in a reading, the brighter this card shines on Assaiah. As you add more cards to your reading; XIX Sun starts to illuminate situations and circumstance instead of matter.

This card has movement, and would represent understanding and transformation. The surrounding cards will tell how, what, where, and with whom this understanding and transformation take place.

The Mysteries:

The Light & the Lotus symbolize a double measure of knowledge. 

Some would translate this as Heru Ra Ha coming forth in golden light, or even as Osiris in the east, which is portrayed in the next card "XX Aeon".

From an aeonic perspective, this card is an emblem of the ages, symbolic of all the coming ages, even the cycle itself.  On a personal level, the Initiate is well beyond the knowledge and conversation of his higher self, he/she has become his/her higher self, and now radiates like the Sun. The invisible rays that emanate from the initiate are of the same essence as the stars. neo

The dancing twins are representative of the separation of the animal and the spiritual aspects in man. They dance together in unison, they are separate, yet they are one, much like a yin-yang symbol. These polar opposites have married, positive/negative, male/female, Ida & Pingala Nadi, etc. This marriage could be considered one of the highest aspects of spiritual alchemy.

It is very interesting to note that: if you slightly cross your eyes, and line up the buttons at the bottom of the hill, you will see a third twin. She is in a very promiscuous position.

Surrounded by the Rosicrucian emblems of morals and character, this would symbolize the Initiate achieving control of his lower instincts. This control, better known as "Sexual Magick", is widely misunderstood and is a key in awakening the solar consciousness.

Initiation at this level is almost unobtainable, as the solar consciousness is above the astral, and should be considered as one of the highest phases or developmental levels achievable as a living human. neo

On a slightly more mundane level, invocation of Sol and the subsequent meditations can lead to an interesting philosophy, whereas the aspirant realizes that everything in his/her sphere of consciousness; is actually a reflection of the solar ray.
