Wheel of Fortune

67. The Lord of the Forces of Life. / כ / Jupiter(“Book T”)

“Tabulated Rules”

Good fortune and happiness (within bounds), but sometimes also a species of intoxication with success, if the cards near it bear this out.

《PKT》

Destiny, fortune, success, elevation, luck, felicity.

(Reverse) Increase, abundance, superfluity.

“A Manual of Cartomancy”

I. World of Human Prudence
Mutation, circumstances ; revolution of things, vicissitude ; time and its variable development ; all that is understood by the external side of fortune.
II. World of Conformity
The sword and the crown ; another symbol of equilibrium, in this case over the mutations of fortune ; the angel of true life, the spirit of religion ruling over the flux of circumstance.
III. World of Attainment
Divine rapture ; triumph over the circle of necessity ; in this world, the wheel has ceased to revolve.

“The Quest of the Golden Stairs”

The Haunted Well—Omens and portents: “There is a Wheel of Fortune in Faerie which only Kindness turns” (Quest, 18).

“Steps to the Crown”

Birth takes place into bondage and death into emancipation.

“The Tarot Trumps”

In the Etz Chayim, or the Tree of Life, the Wheel is placed on the Pillar of Mercy, where it forms the principal column linking Netzach to Chesed, Victory to Mercy. It is the revolution of experience and progress, the steps of the Zodiac, the revolving staircase, held in place by the counterchanging influence of Light and Darkness, Time and Eternity — presided over by the Plutonian cynocephalus below, and the Sphinx of Egypt above, the eternal Riddle which can only be solved when we attain liberation. The basic colours of this Trump are blue, violet, deep purple, and blue irradiated by yellow. But the zodiacal spokes of the wheel should be in the colours of the spectrum, while the Ape is in those of Malkuth, and the Sphinx in the primary colours and black.

《PKT》

In this symbol I have again followed the reconstruction of Éliphas Lévi, who has furnished several variants. It is legitimate—as I have intimated—to use Egyptian symbolism when this serves our purpose, provided that no theory of origin is implied therein. I have, however, presented Typhon in his serpent form. The symbolism is, of course, not exclusively Egyptian, as the four Living Creatures of Ezekiel occupy the angles of the card, and the wheel itself follows other indications of Lévi in respect of Ezekiel's vision, as illustrative of the particular Tarot Key. With the French occultist (Éliphas Lévi), and in the design itself, the symbolic picture stands for the perpetual motion of a fluidic universe and for the flux of human life. The Sphinx is the equilibrium therein. The transliteration of Taro (= Tarot) as Rota (= Wheel) is inscribed on the wheel, counterchanged with the letters of the Divine Name—to shew that Providence is implied through all (of Tarot cards). But this (wheel) is the Divine intention within, and the similar intention without is exemplified by the four Living Creatures. Sometimes the sphinx is represented couchant on a pedestal above (the wheel), which defrauds the symbolism by stultifying the essential idea of stability amidst movement.

Behind the general notion expressed in the symbol there lies the denial of chance and (the escape from) the fatality which is implied therein. It may be added that, from the days of Lévi onward, the occult explanations of this card are—even for occultism itself—of a singularly fatuous kind. It has been said to mean principle, fecundity, virile honour, ruling authority, etc. The findings of common fortune-telling are better than this on their own plane.
