10-The Wheel of Fortune – Upright Golden Deck

Your Chosen Card – The Wheel of Fortune Upright Golden Deck

When upright, the Wheel of The Wheel of Fortune reminds us that our good fortune is often the result of twists of fate rather than our own doing. Now is a time to enjoy your good luck because it can change just as rapidly tomorrow. If things are going well now, be sure to make the best of it and put something aside for a rainy day. For the time being, destiny is smiling upon you. Seize the moment because an opportunity that presents itself today may not remain available tomorrow. Contemplate the lyrics of the Pete Seeger song ‘Turn, Turn, Turn,’ which sets the biblical words to music: ‘To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven’ (Ecclesiastes 3:1, KJV).

Keywords Upright: Good luck, destiny, opportunities for advancement, an upward trend, seizing the moment, remaining open to opportunity, natural cycles, a turn for the better, seizing the moment, twists of fate, Lady Luck, the slings and arrows of fortune, time will tell, the acceptance of one’s fate.
