Your Chosen Card – The Wheel of Fortune Reversed Golden Deck

Here are some snippets from a few of my favorite books
Complete Book of Tarot: In my late teens, I started reading Freud and Jung and became fascinated with dream symbols and psychological archetypes. My study of the celestial science resonated with what these two great psychologists had to say. In my own experience, Jungs writings made sense regarding the contents of the collective unconscious. The same images that populated mythology, religion, and world literature cropped up in astrology and tarot. The symbolism shared by psychology, psychoanalysis, and astrology held my attention throughout my studies.
Complete Book of Tarot: The Crownthe initial spark of creation. Kether is associated with the primum mobile, and according to some modern astrologers, the planet Pluto. The tarot cards related to the number one are the Magician (I), the Wheel of Fortune (X, 1 + 0 = 1), the Sun (XIX, 1 + 9 = 10 1 + 0 = 1), and the four Aces, representing the pure potential and initial spark of the four elements.
Tarot Triumphs: The Wheel will never stop turning. Hope and ambition flourish on the way up; disappointment may follow on the way down. The Wheel of Fortune can be a rapid path to success, or a treadmill, or an unexpected turn of luck for good or ill. Chance affects everyone. Acceptance of change and taking opportunities as they are presented are potential benefits.
