- positive associations with this card: destiny, movement, vision, good luck, new cycle, synchronicity

- negative associations with this card: obstacles, temporary bad luck, unpleasant surprises

- when The Wheel of Fortune appears it heralds a new cycle in life, good luck and fortune. it is fate that has brought this into your life rather than your own doing

- this card heralds an end to current problems and rewards for past efforts

- negatively The Wheel of Fortune is obviously turning in the opposite direction and heralds a time of misfortune and unpleasant surprises, however this is temporary - as the wheel turns downwards, in time it will turn up

You will notice that from the mid-point, The Wheel of Fortune (10), the 'journey' reflected in the Major Arcana cards becomes quite different, and reflects the challenges we may experience on our path to fulfillment and understanding.

Some of the cards in this section of the Major Arcana can cause real alarm with people, so there is an art and subtle skill in comunicating their messages gently and with compassion.
