If at the middle or the end it can mean a block that must be overcome. Another card should be drawn to indicate what animus is needed to turn the wheel and overcome some obstacle in order to begin the next cycle.

From “The Way of Tarot-The Spiritual Teacher in the Cards” by Alejandro Jodorowsky and Marianne Costa “The Wheel of Fortune invites reflection upon the inevitable alternations of ascents and falls, of prosperity and austerity, of joy and sorrow. It orients us toward change, whether positive or negative, and acceptance of the constant transformation of reality.” |
