Wheel of Fortune tarot meaning

Love & relationships

If you are in a relationship, Wheel of Fortune in an upright position normally indicates a positive change so you could be taking the next step in your relationship or starting a new phase with your partner or even some sort of joint project. At the same time, the change the Wheel of Fortune Tarot card brings can be difficult. If you have been finding that you are no longer content in a relationship, this card can signal an upheaval. That could be you and your partner shaking things up and making much needed changes to improve your relationship or it could be a breakup that will leave you free to move onto better things. Whatever happens, it will lead you to where you are supposed to be. If you are single, Wheel of Fortune in your Tarot reading can indicate that the universe is working to bring you the love you deserve but you have to work with the universe! You have good fortune coming in love so now is the time to put yourself out there, get out and meet new people. Make sure you are discerning about exactly what you want in a partner as you have an opportunity to get just that with this card making an appearance in your Tarot spread. The Wheel of Fortune is also a card of destiny so in a love context it can signify soulmates. If you are single you may be meeting yours soon. If you are in a relationship, it may indicate that you and your partner are meant to be! Look to the supporting cards to confirm this.

Money & career

In a career context, again the upright Wheel of Fortune is usually a good omen and an indicator of big changes coming. If you’ve always wanted to start your own business or you’ve been considering a career change now is a good time to make the change. The universe is conspiring to help you reach your dreams so now is the moment to go for whatever you’ve been hoping for in your career. If you are happy and stable in your career, Wheel of Fortune can still be an indicator of changes coming. Even if these changes are challenging for you, they will ultimately lead to bigger and better things so embrace the change and try to go with the flow as much as possible. Financially, Wheel of Fortune also indicates change, if you have been consistently comfortable money wise, it cautions you to be prepared for the unexpected and make sure you put something by for a time when you may need it. If you’ve been experiencing financial difficulties the Wheel of Fortune Tarot card upright is an indicator that things are going to improve for you as you will have good financial luck.

Health

Again, change is the theme of Wheel of Fortune in a health reading. So if you’ve been battling health issues the wheel may start to turn in your favour. Likewise you may experience some health issues that force you to make a necessary adjustment in your life. For instance, if you’ve been pushing yourself too far mentally, physically or emotionally, you may find a bout of illness forces you to slow down and take things easy. This may simply be the universe’s way of telling you that you need to take better care of yourself. So heed the warning and make positive adjustments that are kind to your body and health.

You may notice a lot of synchronicity happening at this time, signs and symbols are all around you.

Love & relationships

In a love context, if you are in a relationship the Wheel of Fortune Tarot reversed can represent stagnancy or the sparkle going out of the relationship. That doesn’t mean that you should automatically make a knee-jerk decision to end the relationship as all relationships have their ups and downs. You may just be moving from one phase of a relationship to another and this could be a little slump in between. Try and assess the situation and find what works for you. Either way this time of upheaval shall pass. Previous mistakes may come back and cause issues. If you are single and feel you have been unlucky in relationships, you need to look at your own choices and behaviour. Have you thrown away opportunities for love? If so, learn from your mistakes and you will get another chance at happiness. We choose the lessons we are meant to learn in this life and you can change your luck by learning from your past and applying these karmic lessons to your future. Whether you are single or in a relationship, the Wheel of Fortune Tarot card in a reversed position is a sign that you may experience setbacks or delays. Try to go with the flow, the only way is up.

Money & career

In a career context, the Wheel of Fortune reversed signifies a career becoming stagnant or a period of disruption and uncertainty in your career. Again, this Major Arcana card in reverse can show unwelcome changes coming. You must assess the decisions you’ve made about your career and honesty ask yourself if they have been the right choices to help you achieve what you want to get out of life. Have you seized the opportunities that were available to you? If not, don’t beat yourself up over it. Know that your current setbacks are only temporary. Use this time to learn from past mistakes and position yourself to seize your moment when the Wheel swings upwards again. Financially, don’t gamble or take financial risks when the Wheel of Fortune is in a reversed position. If you are feeling the pinch financially, this trump card can signify that you have neglected to put money aside or build yourself a financial safety net. Your current hardship will not last forever, when your finances improve, carry the lessons from this time forward with you.

Health

In a health context, Wheel of Fortune reversed can indicate that you may be finding upheaval or disruption in another area of your life is having a knock on effect on your health. Try to remain positive and avoid letting pessimism take over. While change can be stressful, especially unwelcome change, remember that even if you can’t control the situation, you can control how you let it affect you. Don’t try to stop events from happening but make positive steps to take care of yourself and your body even through the tough times and your health will benefit.
