The Wheel of Fortune Tarot Card Meaning

movement and change ~ letting go ~

-What goes around comes around-

The Wheel of Fortune is one of the few cards in the traditional Tarot deck which doesn't include a human figure. This is fitting because it is about those things which are outside human control. Depending on one's beliefs this could be seen as the Power of God, the Law of Karma or just simple fate. This card serves as a reminder that although many of us would like to believe that we are in total control of our lives, there are forces acting upon us which are beyond our influence and understanding. The idea of a wheel is revealing because it suggests there are underlying cycles and patterns to these forces that influence us.
