Wheel of Fortune

The wheel has turned in your favor — not by accident, but because a cycle you began long ago now returns as harvest. You are at a hinge of fate. Trust the momentum, ride it with awareness, and remember: the same wheel that rises is the wheel that falls.

Reversed, the Wheel drops you low or stalls you mid-turn. What feels like bad luck is usually a delayed lesson finally arriving, or a pattern you have not yet broken. Examine the cycle; the wheel only spins until you learn the shape it is drawing.

✦ The Illustration

A great golden wheel inscribed with TAROT letters and alchemical sigils turns in a starry sky. Four winged fixed-sign creatures — human, eagle, ox, and lion — sit at the corners, each reading a book. A sphinx crowns the wheel; a serpent descends on the left, a jackal rises on the right.

✦ Affirmation

“I move with the turning; what rises and falls through me is carrying me home.”
