Wheel of Fortune Tarot Card Description
Looking at the image for The Wheel of Fortune could make the most hardened rollercoaster fan’s stomach feel a bit queasy. The image shows assorted figures going round and round, up and down, on what appears to be a giant hamster wheel. It’s obvious no figure stays in the same place for long; if they start at the top, the wheel turns and they end up on the bottom. In comparison, a figure that starts off at the lowest point can find themself looking down on the world from the highest spot. It’s enough to make anyone feel giddy.
Upright Meaning
Upright, The Wheel of Fortune is a generally optimistic card, as long as you are willing to try something new. The Wheel of Fortune tends to suggest that one aspect of your life is about to draw to a close in a gentle manner, whilst a new chapter in life awaits you. The reason for this change is likely to be outside your control, but as long as you accept this, the results will be positive. Battling to restore the status quo will get you nowhere, this change is unavoidable. If you think you’d like some reassurance that everything really is going to plan, keep an eye out for coincidences and synchronicity in your life and around you. This is a time when opportunities will come knocking, make sure you are there to invite them into your life. The Wheel of Fortune also plays a role in matters of the heart, and it often implies a new liaison, escaping from an unhappy relationship or improving a pre-existing romance. It may also point to an infatuation with a new idea or person that may need to be controlled before it gets out of hand.
Reversed Meaning
You may feel that you are trapped on fate’s conveyer belt, and that you have no opportunity to exercise your free will. Perhaps it appears that your emotions, love life, experiences and career seem to have taken on a life of their own and you are left clasping desperately at their coattails. In fact, it is your lack of willingness to take control of the situation that has left you feeling the victim of fate’s whims. In truth, the world is not against you at all, as long as you are willing to go with the flow you will not only hold your head above the water, you’ll swim as gracefully as a seal. Unfortunately, it may be that you are just having one of those times when you’ve hit a bit of a pothole, and a wheel has come off your plans. Try not to be too down hearted, The Wheel of Fortune will turn and you’ll come out on top.

The Wheel of Fortune Love Tarot Card Description
Upright Meaning
The wheels of the bus go round and round, and so does the Wheel of Fortune, one moment you’re at the top of the world, the next at the bottom of the pack. Just when you thought everything was gloomy fate takes a hand and suddenly you’re at the top of the heap – it’s enough to make you dizzy. The appearance of The Wheel of Fortune points to change in your relationship – not necessarily the end but certainly a big change. If your partnership has lost some of its lustre you need to consider if you are committed enough to put in the required effort to restore its glow. Nevertheless, if your relationship seems to be drawing to a natural close it may be time to move on.
For single folks this can be rather good news, it seems the fates are working to find you a mate, somehow you just seem to be at the right place at the right time. If you’ve been a bit isolated and your love life has as dry and dusty as a forgotten library you may find that soon everyone wants to be your friend.
Remember the Wheel of Fortune is all about change, so if things seem a little bleak now this is not a permanent state of affairs and a transformation is imminent which will soon bring the sun back into your skies.
Reversed Meaning
Sometimes nothing you do seems to work out right; this could be one of those occasions. To be frank there is unlikely to be much you can do about it for now. On the plus side, this tiresome turn of events should be short lived and you will find your situation will improve dramatically. This is certainly not the time to gamble the family fortune on any risky ventures and romance may take something of a back seat as other concerns loudly demand your attention. Nevertheless, you should work together to weather this awkward period. Equally, keep the doors of communication wide open, your partner may also be facing issues of which you are unaware, remember united you stand.
If you are single you may seem stuck in a romantic rut with no sign of someone special on the horizon, hang on in there, your fabulous fan is on the way.
