The Wheel of Fortune ~ Go For it!

Tarot Tuesday! The card for the week is the Wheel of Fortune, representing: Change, expansion, opportunity and flexibility. This card is perfect for today’s Full Moon in Sagittarius, a time to reach beyond our mundane reality and aspire to greater things.

The Wheel of Fortune asks: Are you a gambler? Are you willing to spin the wheel of chance and risk making some changes? This will take you outside your comfort zones, and stretch your sense of security. But it will also open you up to new possibilities that could very well work to your advantage. Remember, a life well-lived is one where you take chances. In other words: No risk, no gain. Be willing to go after what you want, then let the chips fall where they may. You are successful for just showing up and playing the game!

Then hang onto your hat, because the Wheel of Fortune can be like a roller coaster ride! At the very least, life will not be boring. Here, flexibility is key. The Wheel of Fortune is a reminder that: Life is change, and change is Life. It is change that propels the wheel forward. 

The Wheel of Fortune indicates that you are embarking on a new life chapter, and the forces of karma and luck are in your favor. Don’t hesitate, be brave and go for it!  

May luck be ever in your favor and wishing you an expansive week!

The Wheel of Fortune ~ Embracing the Ride!

Tarot Tuesday! The card for the week is the Wheel of Fortune, representing: Change, opportunity, duality and balance. The world is experiencing a “buckle your seatbelts”, “anything goes”, Wheel of Fortune-like rollercoaster ride. This card is much like a roulette wheel or other games of chance. Here, we must be willing gamblers, ready to throw the dice, chance the wheel, ride the ride—to play the game or allow it to play us. The name of the game is change!

The Wheel of Fortune is also called the Wheel of Karma, or Fate, representing the soul as it evolves through eternity. Karma is the law of cause and effect, that for every action there is a consequence. The opportunity presented in the Wheel of Fortune is the willingness to learn lessons so we save ourselves from repeating them again and again. Or in other words—our God-given gift of Free Will!

The wheel is an ancient symbol for life, and each turn represents a passage of time, a new stage and experience. Nature is a perfect example. With each new season, we experience new energy and possibilities. We also experience loss, as we let go old structures and ways of being. The funny thing about change, is that it often makes us feel out of control. Because it presents an unknown future. Yet if we can embrace chance as a natural part of life, then we can begin to seize the opportunities it presents—to grow and explore new horizons!

The wheel holds many ups and downs, highs and lows and the key to calm these extreme comes with finding centeredness. Ultimately, the center of wheel is inspired by the Buddhist concept of detachment. Letting go of judgment and outcomes. This is your point of power now.

“In life we cannot avoid change, we cannot avoid loss. Freedom and happiness are found in the flexibility and ease with which we move through change,” The Buddha.  

Have a great week and--Carpe Diem—Seize the day! 

The Wheel of Fortune ~ Falling Through the Rabbit Hole!

Tarot Tuesday! The card for the week is the Wheel of Fortune, representing: Expansion, change, highs and lows, breakthroughs and unexpected fortune!

This image is from the Inner Child (Fairy Tale) Cards, showing the Wheel as a Merry-Go-Round with characters from Alice in Wonderland. Indeed, the Wheel of Fortune is often described as the “Rollercoaster” card because it represents the constant motion of life—the highs and lows--what can sometimes feel like an energetic whirlwind—especially these days!

Don’t know about you, but I have been feeling a bit like Alice, having fallen through the rabbit hole! Between the White Rabbit reminding me that I’m always late, the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party (kind of like my last family gathering!) to the Queen of Hearts ready to “cut off her head!” I sometimes wonder... is this drama real, a dream, or something of my own making?

Here's what the Inner Child Cards say: “When this card appears in your reading, see your life from a higher perspective. Explore the realm of dreams and vision that are expanding your awareness at this time. Anticipate a turning of the Wheel of Fortune in your favor. Be the eternal optimist. Know that the power of prosperity consciousness your ace in the hole. Take advantage of golden opportunities coming your way. Good luck is on your side.”

Ruled by Jupiter (which is moving into the sign of Virgo today!), this card has a positive vibe, but also requires one to embrace change, to not get caught up in control, to ride the wave (or merry-go-round)!

At the end of the day, remember what Alice said to the Queen of Hearts: “But, you’re all just a deck of cards!” A reminder, that life can be likened to a dream, and not to get too caught up in the drama. 

Today, I'm the mysterious Cheshire Cat, offering illumination from afar! What character from Alice in Wonderland best describes you now? Love to hear!

 Wishing you an expansive and fortunate week!
