TAROT CARDS: THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE What goes around comes around.’’ DESCRIPTION The Wheel of Fortune illustrates the big picture of the cosmos. In the middle, we see the ever-turning wheel of karma representing rebirth, transformation and change. Karma is the law of cause and effect. As every soul moves through the cycle of birth and death, their sum total of actions define their place in the universe. Around the circle, a jackal headed figure is shown rising on the right side, while a snake descends on the left. In mythological context this snake can be linked to Typhon, a serpentine creature that tried to overthrow Zeus. Here, it symbolizes the descent of consciousness into material realm. (The serpent deceives eve into eating fruit from forbidden tree.) The figure on the right is Hermanubis – a god who combined aspects of Hermes and Anubis- who is an explorer of truth and wisdom. He is in the opposite side of the serpent and symbolizes the ascension of consciousness into upper realms. Sphinx is seen sitting atop the wheel, guarding the mysteries to spiritual transcendence. And lastly, in the heavens we see the four fixed zodiac signs around the card, Taurus, Scorpio, Leo and Aquarius. The Wheel of Fortune often points to fated circumstances and people. It is also seen as the card of good luck and fortune. ​ Number 10 represents both completion and beginning.

Ensure you have a solid plan in case a financial emergency arises. ​ Health: The Wheel of Fortune reversed asks you to find better, healthier ways to deal with tough times. Remove yourself from situations and habits that drains your energy. Don’t resist making healthy changes.

TAROT CARDS: FIVE OF CUPS In the end, everything will be okay. If it's not okay, it's not yet the end." Fernando Sabino DESCRIPTION Far away from home, beside a river, a man in a long black cape is staring at the three cups that have been knocked over. His back is turned away from the other two that is still standing. Cups represents his emotions and here in this card; instead of looking at the positives in his life, he focuses on the painful ordeals of the past. Here we are with another card of self-imposed rut. The Five of Cups represents old wounds that are still stealing from the happy moments of the future and pushing down the hurt and disappointment rather than processing it in a healthy way. The Five of Cups represents being emotionally devastated by a loss, regret or break up. There’s no denying the hurt it caused, but there is always a choice to move forward. One way to release yourself from this mindset is to stop asking 'what if's' or thinking 'if only's'. When the Five of Cups shows up, you need to put things into perspective. Zoom out on the present struggle and focus in on the big picture. From this point of view, you will see that you are never as hopeless or powerless as you think. ​ Number 5 represents adaptable thinking, freedom and openness to the new. Five of Cups Keywords ​ Disappointment Dwelling in the past Negative mindset Loss UPRIGHT REVERSED ​ Letting go Need to move on Hesitance to make a change ​ Upright Five of Cups Guidance: Grief is a natural response to loss. Even if you choose to repress your emotions, eventually you must face them in order to heal. This is the moment the Five of Cups is talking about. Help yourself to move on by embracing change, forgive the ways that you were wronged, and always treat yourself with love, compassion, and understanding. Allow yourself to see each day as a new opportunity to create something better. ​ Love: The Five of Cups heralds a heartbreak in the past. Perhaps you still hold resentment and anger. Perhaps you think you can never find happiness again. Or perhaps you wish you could turn back time and make different choices. These are some of the feelings you need to explore when the Five of Cups appears. Whether it is a break-up, divorce or getting over an ex, it is not the end of things. Let go of the old, embrace the new. ​ Work/Finances: The Five of Cups is surely an unwelcome card to get in the context of work and finances, signifying disappointment, loss and regret. However, you should not let it consume you to the point of denying the opportunities and success the future holds. Every success story is written on the point of turning mistakes and failures into valuable lessons. ​ Health: Regardless of what you are going through, The Five of Cups invites you to escape the prison of negative mindset. You will allow more healing to happen by simply changing your perspective. If you feel like no one can truly understand what you are going through, remember that it is this negativity talking. Surround yourself with positive people who love and support you. If you haven’t experienced improvement in your health or desired results yet, you may be putting too much of your focus on negative thoughts. ​ Spirituality: The Five of Cups points to a time when you are overwhelmed by negative emotions: anger, guilt, sadness or loneliness. Life is an ever-changing and evolving journey. Every beginning has an end. Sometimes an unexpected end pushes us out of our comfort zone when we are not ready. But no matter how much you resist; you can’t keep living in yesterday. This card tells you that forgiveness is vital when it comes to finding closure. Guidance: Life has thrown you a curveball. Understandably you felt hurt, shocked and disappointed. But that’s what life does. It changes, sometimes for the good and sometimes bad. You need to remember that change itself is not bad- but resisting to it is. Only by releasing yourself from the old and allowing yourself to heal you can find the freedom to flow in life. ​ Love: Reversal of the Five of Cups often means that the ghosts of the past are still haunting you. If you find that your heart no longer feels complete, it is because you are still tied to the past for some reason. Figure out what you don’t want to let go, why you don’t allow yourself to forgive and love again. It is up to you to move on and be happy again, not anyone else. Now is the time to break the self-imposed boundaries of isolation. ​ Work/Finances: The Five of Cups reversed suggests hesitance to learn, adapt and change. Perhaps you want to get back what you lost, reach the success of your dreams or have a better job. In any case, the solution is always you. You are the one that will take you from here to there, where you want to be. So, don’t run away from the problems, face them fearlessly. Accept the responsibilities and the uncertainty that comes with embracing the future. Don’t dwell on the past financial losses or mistakes, learn from them. ​ Health: The reversed meaning of the card is same as the upright; only this time you prolong the negative thinking even further. The situation you are in calls for implementing healthy changes and behaviours. Don’t get frustrated when your recovery takes time. Instead, honour your healing process by staying positive and patient throughout. ​ Spirituality: When life forces you out of your comfort zone, it can be challenging to understand the greater reason behind it. If you divert your attention from the negative emotions and look deep within, you will see a resilient, adaptable, strong soul. And from that moment on, you are ready to turn your greatest pain into your greatest strength. Reversed Five of Cups See the previous card: four of cups see the next card: six of cups Back to Top

TAROT CARDS: THE FOOL The boy reached through the Soul of the World and saw that it was part of the Soul of God. And he saw that the Soul of God was his own soul. And that he, a boy, could perform miracles.” Paul Coelho DESCRIPTION Have you ever started something that you knew deep inside you it was going to work out? You didn’t know how you knew, and it didn’t matter. You had all trust in yourself and in the universe. So does the Fool. He is joyfully walking on a hill, absolutely faithful of his steps, so much so that he is not even aware of the cliff ahead. With a heart full of confidence and no fears, this young fellow represents every new beginning in our lives that started with a childish sense of enthusiasm. And the fool’s journey begins. Being the first card in the tarot deck, Number 0 relates to the eternal source and wholeness. This card alone is not an indication of the journey’s outcome. Here, the infinite potential about to be unfolded is emphasized. In a more metaphysical point of view, the Fool may be seen as the creative power, the spirit that is taking motion, looking for his experience. With the great energy it carries, I suggest meditating on the Fool at times when you are lacking confidence and trust. Simply be in the moment and gaze at the symbols and colors. Let your subconscious bring out what the card means to you. The Fool Keywords ​ Faith in the universe New beginnings Leap of faith UPRIGHT REVERSED ​ Naivety Recklessness Lack of faith ​ The Fool Upright Guidance: Whatever it is that you wish to experience in your life, trust the universe and go for it. The Fool encourages you to let go of what is preventing you to step up and take a leap of faith. It often indicates new beginnings and exciting adventures. Having the first card of the Major Arcana in your reading always reminds you to that you have what it takes to make your dreams come true. ​ Love: “Falling” in love is definitely the key phrase here! If you are single, a carefree and playful love adventure is ahead. Although it doesn’t necessarily represent a serious commitment, the Fool also brings joy and romance elements to existing relationships. It can also mean a joyful friendship turning into love. The underlying theme here is infinite possibilities, so open your heart fully and let the universe bring you the love you desire. ​ Work/Finances: It is very likely with the Fool in your reading that you are taking on a new path, such as starting a new career, project or business. You may also be at the start of your career without much previous experience. New beginnings are always scary at first, but don’t let anything discourage you from following your goals. Work opportunities, new source of income or travel are also other indications. ​ Health: The youthful Fool has so much life energy and optimism. Therefore, now it is time for you to release your worries and embrace a positive mindset when it comes to your overall wellbeing. Since the number 0 represent wholeness, this card can indicate an upswing in your health condition. ​ Spirituality: The Fool’s journey through tarot is a path of enlightenment. As a soul, you are realizing your deeper connection to the universe, and through this inner journey you are achieving a sense of wholeness. As the ocean has many waves, universe has many expressions of souls, but our essence is always the same- Oneness. Guidance: When the Fool is reversed, he acts with a certain naivety about the situation and fails to see the cliff ahead. His unawareness of his steps moving forward might lead him to a dangerous fall. Therefore, this card suggests a careful and planned action, or a need for reality checking. Alternatively, you may be too hesitant and unconfident where bolder action is necessary. ​ Love: You may need to work on finding the right balance of personal freedom and commitment to your relationship. The Fool reversed has a carefree attitude towards love, he doesn’t want to be held back by anyone. You may even call him a commitment phobic! If you are single, perhaps you are not ready for a serious relationship yet. However, you may be closing off your heart because of fear or lack of confidence. ​ Work/Finances: The Fool reversed warns you that your ground may be shaky due to lack of confidence or reckless decisions. Financially, this is not a good time to take big risks. Follow your ideas, but always have a plan. It is best if you focus on your long-term stability when it comes to your career. ​ Health: Do you have a hectic daily life and you tend to neglect self-care? If the answer is yes, this reversal reminds you the importance of tuning into your body’s signals. Self-awareness is necessary in order to prevent issues from arising in the future. ​ Spirituality: When it comes to spiritual and material life, patience is the highest wisdom. There is a strong desire in you to start a new path, but you must understand that every path has its puddle. Instead of focusing on the obstacles, have faith in yourself and have fun in your journey.

Just like her husband, the King of Swords, the right hand holds a sharp sword facing upward. Queen’s attention is focused on the direction of her left hand, or, in the future. Upon a closer look, you can see that she has a slight frown in her face. This is because the Queen of Swords is a resilient and wise woman who endured a lot of emotional pain. Yet, she follows her inner light in the darkest of sorrows, despite the melancholy that gripped her soul. The Queen of Swords represents an individual or a situation with characteristic qualities of the card. As the most intellectual queen of all, her life is a quest for truth and knowledge.
