10 The Wheel of Fortune
As I look at the Wheel I see the sword, cup, shield, and arrow round the edge of the card representing the 4 suits of the tarot, there is a wheel in the centre overlaying a photo of a rocky shoreline in the right hand corner there are red/yellow flames with smoke rising from them into the card.
Deck created by Anna Franklin and Published by Llewellyn Deck available to buy from both websites.
I like the look of the card and the wheel being so perfectly rounded and shiny looking it feels new and fresh.
I walk into the card.
I ask the suits as a whole what they represent, they tell me that they are each of the aspects of life - the spiritual (arrow/wand), the emotional (cup), the physical(Shield/disk) and the mental(sword). Each of us here protectors of the wheel of life and as the wheel turns so do each of us and we have a new place or view point on the world - we represent the balanced turning of cycles, positive to negative as well as each area being focused on in turn as you develop through your personal journey in your life.
I am drawn to the sword and I see the sword come up from the side of the card and strike the wheel - setting it into motion into a new place. It turns and things change. I feel it is how we create our lives - the mental thoughts we have and create about ourselves and the things we want in our lives touching the wheel and setting about creating them as we want them. The spirit fire in the corner being the spirit that guides all creation its smoke gently touches the wheel ensuring our creations are for the highest good and our every thought doesn't create immediately. It sits close to the cup of love and emotions and I feel that the spirit allows this side of ourselves to affect our creations - that with greatest emotional affect can be brought into being most easily. 'Be careful of what you desire' I hear. And also get the feel of being careful what you hate too as it also draws it close to you.
I ask the wheel if it has anything to say it says "I just turn as directed I am not attached to when where or how I merely follow the orders of the creator. I have no disbelief in what can be created so I will show the creation of all is possible. "
I go to the fire and stand within it and ask of it to show me its messages. "I am the fire of all creation I burn to transform energy from one state to another as is the way. I can be asked to create anything that is wanted and I can bring this about though I need the clarity of the cup to be brought before me before I will do your biding. I serve the highest potential of all though sometimes this potential is only seen by allowing free will and choice so even seemingly negative things can be created for the learning of the highest path. "
"What of the rugged shore line here ?" I ask and find myself flying around it. "It is the expression of the soft and the hard meeting together and the affect of one on the other. Hard rock beaten away by the soft rocking in and out of the water - each affecting the other as the water is held back or guided by rock formations so too is the rock broken down by the water. Each finds their place and their response to the other. "
"So in a reading what can you all mean?" I ask - "We are the symbol of wholeness and of creation of everything being part of the whole. There is no end, only changes. We are the spirit of creation in everything and would tell you to create what you want in your life - your thoughts wishes and desires are honoured by spirit. Know that you will create more easily when there is high emotion yet no attachment to the outcome - each persons wishes affects another's like the sea affecting the rocks - each has their own experience and uniqueness yet the outcome is changed by each other and this is the order of things. Allow room for 'luck' in your life. We represent the force of luck in both good and bad terms, something that happens as a sum of all other things going on in yourself and those affecting you. Miracles can happen with this card nothing is impossible. "
"When reversed it can indicate a feeling of helplessness, not feeling like you can have any control over anything that happens in your life or the situation. - Take back your power know you have a influence too even if your exact result do not come about your existence and wants and desires affect the whole. Also reversed can mean a change in your luck - in your circumstances can be brought about by you - but you have to be active - the 'luck' won't happen on its own solely. "
"In all the changes in life you can see spirit working - sometimes this card shows us its time to look at the spirit force behind everything that is happening - the miraculous that goes on daily. Become aware of your part in the miracle. "
"Thank you" I say and feel it is time to leave, this card's elements seem to be very interconnected - in a way that the other cards haven't, somehow I felt I had to talk to all of them together rather than individually, I feel there is a message here, in that this card is about group manifestation and collective desires helping things change. As well as remembering our individual affect. Each part wanted to be seen as part of the whole even with its uniqueness. Perhaps this message is the most important from this card.

The readings I offer on the phone, internet, in person or by post are detailed and last between 1/2 hour to an hour, also I record them onto CD or MP3 so you can listen to them time and time again – often people find that the things I have said take on new meanings as time passes and that the information that comes through really helps as situations unfold. Information is gained both from the tarot cards as well as psychically the two forms of guidance merging together to give insight to any situation you are concerned about, or you general future.

I offer readings Face to Face, On Skype video phone, and usual telephone, as well as distance readings without you needing to be present or available when I do the reading for your focus directly onto CD or MP3.
