Your Chosen Card – The Wheel of Fortune Upright Mage Deck
When upright, 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 ones fate.
Key X: The Wheel of Fortune (Dame Fortune)
Myths/Archetypes: Lady Luck. Dame Fortune. The three Norns. The Fates of Greek mythology. The Soothsayer. The fickle finger of fate.
Astrology: Jupiter, the greater benefic. (Jupiter rules Sagittarius and Pisces)
Numerology: 1 (Magician) = 1 + 0 (Wheel of Fortune) = 1 + 9 (The Sun)
Rider Waite: Destiny, fortune, success, elevation, luck, felicity; (R) increase, abundance, superfluity.

Book Details
Development for Beginners: It is unclear whether or not hypnacogic imagery can actually be classified as psychic, however. That classification is still highly debatable. Although, you may call many different things by many different names, so does it really matter what you call it as long as it gives you the desired results? To paraphrase Shakespeare, a premonitory vision by any other name would still remain as clairvoyant.
Elements of the Psychic World: A practice of divination using bowls of brass – a metal thought to protect against evil spirits – which were filled with water or ink and used as focal points i n scrying or capturing glimpses of the future in scenes and images appearing in the bowl. The diviner would stare at the liquid without blinking until a trancelike state was entered and visions experienced. Said to have been the practice by which Nostradamus came about his knowledge of the future.
