X The Wheel of Fortune

Manufactured by Angel Playing Cards

Using Rider Waite's Keyword and Meanings

Astrological Correspondence: Jupiter

Keywords: unexpected change, good fortune, becoming master of one's own destiny 

Description: The Wheel of Fortune symbolises the ever changing cycle of life, wins and losses, ups and downs, unexpected luck, advancements and setbacks, success and failure - the duality of things. Representing a breakthrough, a fortunate set of circumstances, the energies of the turning wheel also suggest incalculability, chance, surprise, rapid change and fate ending problematic times, heralding good fortune, and stimulating development and growth. As one of the cards not showing a human figure at its centre, the Wheel of Fortune represents our uncovering of life's cycles and patterns, the discovery of our purpose in life, and the realisation that nothing is permanent, everything is always in flux.

Upright Associations: Destiny, unexpected fortune or effortless success. Advancement, progress and the resolution of problems. The beginning of a new cycle or phase.

In a negative situation the card can resemble failure, misfortune, gambling excess, and a turn for the worse.

Reversed Associations: Bad luck, a change for the worse, obstacles, rivalry, materialism. A change in luck and circumstances, fighting against change.
