today we are taking a deep dive into the Wheel of Fortune.

In the Wheel of Fortune, we see the full gamut of emotions and feelings that we experience in our lives. The old attitude, what goes around comes around definitely applies here with the Wheel of Fortune because you have up days, you have down days. We have up cycles in your life where everything is going well for a few months and then it seems to all disappear. That's all about the cycles.

You cannot have all good or all bad. It just doesn't exist in the universe that we live in. Life is always in flux. It changes from moment to moment. There is absolutely nothing we can do about it. We can't stop it. Nor should we. Because without that steady progression, we don't grow, we don't learn. Life would be like the Ferris wheel got stuck at the top.

What we can do, however, is change the way we perceive the situation we're in.

we can choose to.

Do the, woe is me, look what life is doing to me, I'm miserable, and the whole world is against me. Or you can choose to see it as a learning opportunity, what went wrong, how did I participate in it, and how can I fix it.

That will get you out of the down cycle a little quicker by just thinking about it from a different perspective. The literally how can I fix this situation because you're asking for at that point for your spirit guides advice on what to do when this happens again and how to get out of it.

The Wheel of Fortune can signal anything that brings change. That could be getting a different job, going to rehab, going back to school, having a child, getting married or not. It's just anything that heralds a change, usually a major change. In general, this card

If it's in the upright or positive position, generally indicates more of the same. If it's in the shadow position, it's going to indicate that, maybe things aren't going to go quite as well as we thought they were. And we go back to the questions of how did I participate in this and how do I fix it?

We all know that life is a cycle.

The only thing we can change is our perception. And that choice belongs to you of how to view your life. That's what the Wheel of Fortune actually gives us the opportunity to do, to view our life a bit differently. In addition, the Wheel of Fortune also represents unexpected encounters.

Unexpected events or sudden and intense twists of fate. Kind of like the Tower Card. If you get the Wheel of Fortune and the Tower Card together, either something really, really, really, really incredibly wonderful is about to happen or your life is about to tank. So be prepared and be, have, that's a nice warning to have. It can feel like life is speeding up, passing you by.

Or you can feel like it's just slowed down and it's creeping along at a snail's pace. The choice again to view how that happens is yours, whether to take that opportunity and turn it into a learning experience for getting out of it now and how not to get into it next time.

The lessons we learn from this cycle can turn us bitter or they can be those unexpected opportunities to change the way we think. Because when we change the way we think, we change our behavior. And those two things can go a very long way towards improving your life and your circumstances dramatically, which is one of the big lessons of the Wheel of Fortune.

The shadow side of the Wheel of Fortune can also be a warning that karma is about to come get you. If you've been mean and nasty and the Wheel of Fortune is taking a downturn, guess what you're going to get back? Precisely what you put in. It can also represent a descent into mental health issues or going into recovery.
