10 - The Wheel of Fortune

Card Ten

This card shows a large circle with symbols, angelic beings and sphinx atop the circle, with many other symbols. This card has much to do with luck and karma, but there is a stabilising force with this influence too.

This card represents progress, the end of one cycle, changes and new things. It is also associated with the roulette wheel.

This card symbolises our materialistic desires as well as our spiritual side.
