On the card
A great wheel marked with letters and symbols turns in the clouds, a sphinx with a sword sits on top, a serpent glides down one side and a jackal-headed figure rises on the other, while four winged creatures read books in the corners.
Upright
The Wheel of Fortune reminds you that life moves in cycles. A turning point may be arriving, bringing a lucky opening or a change in direction. You can't control every turn, but you can choose how you meet it – with openness rather than resistance.
Reversed
Reversed, the Wheel can reflect resistance to change, or a feeling that things keep repeating. It may also point to too much of a good thing. Look for the pattern you keep returning to, and for the small shift that could start a new cycle.
- Love & connection
- In love, it can signal a meaningful turn – a fresh chapter, a timely meeting or a shift in how a relationship flows.
- Work & purpose
- At work, it highlights timing, unexpected opportunities and the value of adapting as things change.
- A prompt for you
- Notice what is changing around you and ask how you want to move with it.
