 | The card in the center represents the attitude you assume. Wheel of Fortune: The intrusion of chance into affairs. Unlikely coincidence. "What goes up, must come down." The intercession of good fortune in life. A sudden opportunity that must be exploited deftly and promptly; according to Machiavelli, in The Prince, Fortune is "bald behind", that is, once she runs past, it will be too late to grab her, and so she must be seized as she approaches, "by the forelock". |
 | The card to the right represents the thoughts and feelings that underly your attitudes. Two of Cups (Love), when reversed: Separation. Dissolution. Unhappy love. |
 | The card at the top represents how your attitude is evolving and will evolve in the future. Eight of Coins (Prudence), when reversed: Vanity. Dishonesty. |
 | The card to the left represents how others perceive your attitude. King of Swords, when reversed: Abuse of power. Tyranny. Cruelty. The empty striving for control. A failed attempt at mastery. |
 | The card at the bottom represents what you cannot confront or are hiding from yourself. Knight of Staves: A traveler. A journey. The call of far away places. The arrival or return of a pilgrim or wanderer. A person of far-ranging interests and restless curiosity who is desirous of change and transformation. Inventive and artistic, but sometimes absent-minded person. Having one's "head in the clouds." |
