What Does Wheel of Fortune Mean in the Dali Tarot?
The Wheel of Fortune is a reminder that nothing stays still. What rises falls, what falls rises again, and it rarely depends on us alone. In the Dali Tarot it is the card of changing cycles, strokes of luck and turns you need to know how to use.
What the Wheel of Fortune Looks Like in Dalí’s Deck
At the center is a wheel of concentric circles, in dark blue and white, that recalls a target or an eye. Around it spreads a large orange patch with wavy edges drawn in black, and small hand-drawn figures and scrolls appear around that.
The card carries the number X and the Hebrew letter Yod (י). Dalí’s wheel is above all a center: still circles surrounded by restless shapes. It is a simple picture of the card, in which everything turns except the axis.
Keywords
- Change of cycle
- Luck and opportunity
- Fate and chance
- Unexpected turns
- Reversed: a bad run, resistance to change, feeling out of control
Wheel of Fortune Upright
Upright, the Wheel announces a favorable turn: an opportunity, a lucky streak, a stuck matter that finally moves. It reminds you that cycles pass and that it pays to act while the wind is behind you. You do not control everything, but you do control how you respond.
Wheel of Fortune Reversed
Reversed, the turn goes against you or is slow to come. It can point to a bad run, setbacks, or the feeling of repeating the same pattern. It also speaks of resisting a change that cannot be avoided. The useful thing is to let go of what is not up to you and wait for the next turn.
Wheel of Fortune in Love
In love it brings chance meetings, reunions and new phases in a relationship. Reversed, it describes ups and downs, or a relationship caught in the same circle.
Wheel of Fortune in Work and Money
At work it announces change: an offer, a transfer, a stroke of luck. With money, it reminds you that good runs do not last forever, so make use of them and put something aside. Reversed, do not risk what you cannot afford to lose.
Wheel of Fortune in a Three-Card Reading
- Past or background: a stroke of luck, or a change you did not choose, altered your course and brought you here.
- Present or central energy: the wheel is turning. Stay flexible and alert to the opportunity.
- Near future or guidance: a change of cycle is approaching. Get ready to move with it instead of resisting.
