The following is an excerpt from my book, The Ultimate Tarot Guide for Your Personal Tarot Journey.  You can purchase your copy at Amazon.

Wheel of Fortune 
Keywords: completion; a game plan; success; Lady Luck; the gambler; taking chances; all your eggs in one basket; winning the lottery

Archetypes: The Gambler (Kenny Rodgers); Robin Hood; race car drivers; politicians; business women

Correspondences:

Number/1

Planet/Jupiter

Element/Earth

Astrological Sun Sign/Aquarius

In a Nutshell: Luck

Upright Interpretation:

There is the immense relief of getting something accomplished, of meeting a deadline, of coming to the end of a monumental task, the satisfaction of having completed a job-well-done. This is a happy cat-chasing-it’s-tale card, but with a game plan, a touche to the world. If no one else understands where you’re coming from, or how you’re going to do what it is you’re planning to do, know that you– and the universe– will have it all straight.

Reversed Interpretation: The cat’s still chasing it’s tale, but this time it’s going in mindless circles with no game plan and not a clue as how to stop the merry-go-round to get off. You’re a long way from done, says the reversed Wheel of Fortune. Everything is left open, up in the air, with nary a solution or set date of completion in sight. Get a grip. Don’t let life, or unforeseen circumstances, rule the outcome of your day, your week, your month, or your life.

Study Questions:

1. What is your first impression of this card?

2. What does this card mean to You?

3. Are there details on this card that especially stand out for you? If so, write them down and explain.

4. How does this card define relationships?

5. How does this card define financial circumstances?

6. How is this card relevant to health issues?

Affirmations for Meditation:

1. I won’t be afraid to take a chance.

2. I won’t be afraid to take a chance while using Common Sense.

3. I won’t let an opportunity pass me by.

4. I will learn and live, love and grow, by grasping at Life’s impossibilities.

5. I can do it; I can do it; I can do it!

A Tarot Reading for The Wheel of Fortune:

Wheel of Fortune ~ The World ®; 10/pentacles; Queen/cups ®
Everything is spinning, including the Earth and human lives, spinning towards their destiny, spinning out of control, spinning onto other levels, spinning closer towards endings and beginnings. Your movement, Wheel of Fortune, is dizzy and off-center, a little tipsy maybe, as if you’ve had a glass or two of wine, or something even stronger. There comes with this movement a sense of closure or completion, a sense of fulfillment, a sense of relief. Are you playing with us, or with yourself, dear Wheel of Fortune, as from the center of your card, you boldly and firmly state, “What goes around, comes around.”

Lady Luck, they call you, and with this power you wield, you either drop golden coins on surprised recipients, or you empty the pockets of those daring enough to face off with you one too many times. It gives the world pause for thought. Is life just really one big chance? Are we here to fulfill a destiny, or are we nothing more than numbers spinning on some luminous game of chance in the center of this big black universe? And what is destiny, after all, and what constitutes riches and golden precious coins. All of these things may be something different for each individual, and it’s this glaring fact that you chase us with.

Wheel of Fortune, you inspire us to follow our dreams, to listen to our intuition, to open our arms to visions. You remind us of the connection we have with Spirit and the laws of physics, and the hard reality of life. You remind us that chances often come from the most unexpected direction and source, and you fill us with a sense of hope. If life is a game, you tell us, we all have an equal chance to win.

Tarot for Grownups ~ (Review)

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1780995997/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i4

This 126 page tarot how-to was probably one of the most entertaining books on the great 78 I have read in awhile. The author and her unique storytelling style held me captivated right from jump. She told it like it was and thought out of the box when it came to the meaning of the cards. It was like sitting down with someone over coffee as they explained the inner workings of the tarot. She absolutely delightfully is not by the book and it just felt so real and refreshing. I would recommend this special helper to anyone looking for an out of the box approach to divination. Thanks Amythyst, you do so rock, I will never look at the tarot quite the same way again.Love & Light, Riki Frahmann

Your Daily Tarot Cards ~ There’s lots of odd energy out there today, so sorry… There’s a difference between being optimistic and being naive; I smell deception; someone may be waiting in the wings to take your place; and then there’s the 3 of swords and that nasty third party energy. Read on…

I just pulled 5 tarot cards for today.  Is there something that you need to hear?… 10/pentacles; 10/cups; 2/wands; 8/cups; 7/swords ~ 

https://www.facebook.com/pg/readingswithamythystraine/posts/?ref=page_internal

I just pulled 7 of swords ~ a liar is about to put his foot in his mouth, or to fall in a well-placed trap. People who practice deception should realize that deception is a facade. This facade takes a lot of work and energy to create, and it can’t be successfully held in place forever. The truth will eventually pop out, like a glitch in the matrix. What follows is a domino effect. People who practice deception are usually willing to risk losing everything… follow the link above to see what the other cards have to say.

I just pulled 4 cards @ The Tarot Parlour FB page ~ It’s a busy day today… Relationships seem to prevail. Some of you may be going through a new phase; some of you are unwittingly confiding in an enemy masquerading as a friend; some of you have, or will, succumb to temptation. And on the work front, a group performance evaluation is going to prove problematic. Follow this link for more details. Look for this photo with these set of cards.

Your Daily Tarot Cards ~ Proceed With Caution!

*Note ~ I pulled The Fool twice today for our daily cards, once upright and once reversed. After reading everything when I got it all up and posted, I realized there could be quite a connection for someone out there where The Fool is concerned. If this card applies to you, and if both versions of it posted today apply to you, you might want to give it some thought. Be cautious in your connections, be careful who and how you connect with people on the internet, or at work, or when out in public places. Just saying.

I just pulled 10 of swords ~ It’s the final blow, or the killing blow, it’s the last straw before the beginning of the end. Beware of one last final action that makes resolution, resolvement, or reconciliation impossible. All the cards will come off the table, the curtain will descend. Fini.

I just pulled Wheel of Fortune reversed ~ Someone is all wrapped up in too much detail, or too many untruths to keep straight, or there are too many conditions and ultimatums, or there are too many people giving their opinions and advice. And all of this is tied to you and to some very important pivotal person or point in your life. At the end of the day, the decision is YOURS and YOURS ALONE.

I just pulled King of pentacles ~ 1. You have a brilliant idea that may turn out to be quite successful, or it will solve a predicament, but you haven’t shared it with anyone. 2. You’re keeping a secret, thinking it will be okay. But you haven’t counted on the energy involved, the radiance of hidden knowledge or feelings or action. Oops.

I just pulled 9 of wands ~ It’s a long climb to the top… to the top of a job, a successful relationship, an exciting goal or adventure. Don’t do anything now to trip yourself up. Think about the repercussions of a decision you are considering. If you make the wrong choice, it’s a long fall to the bottom.

I just pulled The Emperor reversed ~ The wind has been knocked out of your sails. You may feel like retreating to quieter waters for smoother sailing, at least for a while. Something has been put to rest, but at a great price. Someone is STILL hanging on tight, but keeping silent. Men, watch your health, especially if you’ve gone through a stressful period lately.

I just pulled 7 of pentacles ~ No matter how diligently you’re keeping an eye on something (your money, your partner, your work, something precious to you)… You’re losing bits and pieces of it in such small amounts that you’re not going to notice anything is wrong until it’s too late. Recheck financial accounts, pay closer attention to your partner, be more alert at work.

I just pulled 3 of pentacles reversed ~ You’re working so hard and still feel that you’re making no headway. What are you working on? You might feel that the grass looks greener on the other side… for work, for relationships, for circumstances. Be careful. What you might find on the other side of the fence is illusion.

I just pulled Wheel of Fortune ~ if something has been pretty shitty, iffy, and unsatisfactory; if you’ve felt the dark shadow of negative energy breathing down your neck, it’s going to get better. There’s people and energy and spiritual stuff going on in the background that are working like cogs in a wheel to change your path, to clear the way, to straighten something out, to pave the road, to close the deal.

I just pulled The Hanged Man ~ Someone is relying upon someone else for things they shouldn’t. You are being fed opinions, ideas, answers, or suggestions by someone who doesn’t have your best interest in mind. What they’re doing is going to benefit themselves and the outcome that they wish for. You are being spoon fed a bunch of crap by an angry vindictive person. Spit it out.

I just pulled 2 of wands reversed ~ If you’re not getting the attention, the time, the comfort, the emotional investment that you feel you need from the source it should be coming from, you will be tempted to turn else where. If you are not giving the attention, the time, the comfort, the emotional investment to someone for whom you are the source, they will turn else where. Humans find solace where they can.

I just pulled Queen of cups ~ emotions rule. This is just too large an issue, too important a decision, too deep a wound, too profound a betrayal, too riveting a circumstance. It will not allow your head, your common sense, your better judgment, to give an opinion, to formulate an action. It’s slippery, whatever the issue, and it’s going to be difficult to hang onto it in order to correct or solve it.

I just pulled The Empress ~ Someone is holding something over you… their power. They’re holding secrets, they’re holding onto influence, they’re holding on to something that is not theirs to keep. They’re no longer doing it now because it’s what they really want; they’re hanging on now just to prove a point, to get the last word, to feel superior, to feel victorious. What did they win? Better yet, what did you lose?
