The Rider Card Meaning
In this card you generally see a handsome man riding rapidly, carrying news. He is a cordial rider, typically bringing news in a kind and courteous manner (unless cards around him are negative). This is a neutral card tilting slightly positive. It is an exciting card that shows news and information is on the way, and quickly!
