Divinatory Esoteric And Occult Tarot X The Wheel Of Fortune

Divinatory Esoteric And Occult Tarot X The Wheel Of Fortune Image
The eleventh card in the Trump suit of the Tarot is the Wheel of Fortune. This card is a complex image which combines several of the fundamental symbols of Qabalah and magick. At the center of the card is a wheel with eight spokes to mark the elements Earth, Air, Water and Fire as well as the name Tetragrammaton, indicating that they are interchangeable and interconnected in the eternal turning of the wheel. Around the rim of the wheel are written TARO and ROTA to symbolize the connection of the entire Tarot to this same unending revolution of the wheel of the heavens which this Trump card represents on an esoteric and occult level. Riding the rim of the wheel are three creatures, a sphinx on the top to indicate the dominance of order, a serpent descending to show that the dominance was won by knowledge and a typhoon or demon ascending to indicate the transience of the status quo.

At the corners of the card are the four kerubic emblems to indicate that the influence of the Wheel of Fortune and Tetragrammaton that it represents is on the material level and subject to the changeable laws of the elements. As this card is attributed to Jupiter it represents the fixed laws that govern material existence as well as their earthly counterparts.

Traditionally interpreted as a change of luck, if good the to bad and if bad then to good. The connection to Jupiter also indicates luck or good fortune as well as the influence of governing powers for which reason it may also indicate the influence of karma in the situation.
