THE MESSAGE:
The Wheel of Fortune is sometimes called ‘The Wheel of Life’ and the ‘Medicine Wheel’. The Wheel symbolizes the flux of human life and the perpetual motion of the Universe.

The Wheel of Fortune combines mercy with victory to being about a change in circumstances, which will ultimately lead to good fortune. The Wheel of Fortune represents life woven and then measured out differently for each person. The Wheel of Fortune tells of the progress we make in our lives. 

 

The Wheel of Fortune symbolizes the ever-changing cycle of life, wins and losses, ups and downs, unexpected luck, advancements and set backs, 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.

The image of the Wheel itself is one of fixed stability intermingled with ‘change’. It indicates that the key to success is adaptability. The changes that occur will be of a positive nature.

The Wheel of Fortune tells that human fate and human soul are one and the same. You are thus responsible for your own destiny. Your fate does not come to meet you  -- you go to meet your fate.

When joy and sorrow come into your life it is not that fortune or misfortune has befallen you, but rather, that you have invited it into your life. Everything in the outer world exists within the hearts and souls of each of us. It is our fear of recognizing our own responsibility for the course of or lives that lead us to try to blame fate for what befalls us. The more we know about the inner-self which attracts external circumstances to us, the more power we can consciously exercise over our destiny. Many people do not like the idea of such responsibility; they prefer to think that their circumstances have nothing to do with them and ascribe everything to good or bad ‘luck’ or fate.

The Wheel of Fortune reveals a greater force working within; an intelligent and orderly plan behind the seemingly random changes in one’s life.

The Wheel of Fortune asks you to learn to accept the ups and downs and ebb and flow of life. Adapting and understanding the rhythm of life can mean the unfolding of the Universe’s secrets. Attune yourself to the rhythm of life and know there is a time to work, a time to wait and a time to reap the harvest. Develop patience. If you have done the right things, then the right things will happen. Allow your body, mind and soul to tune into the rhythm of the Universe.

The Wheel of Fortune tells of learning from past mistakes.

The books represent knowledge and wisdom attained by higher learning. They also symbolize stability amongst movement.

The serpent (Typhon) is the Egyptian ‘god of evil’ in one of his many guises. The serpent also indicates the life-force and/or the descent to the material, manifestation vibration.
