Readings
Two Cards
If you are trying to make a very important decision in your life and you don’t know which path to follow, if you are really doubtful about the consequences the crossroads tarot spread will help you to find your way.
Wheel of Fortune
Upright
Good luck, karma, life cycles, destiny, a turning point
The Wheel of Fortune hints you that life is in a state of constant transition. If you’re going through a difficult time remember that it always could get better from here. Good fortune will make its return on time. This cycle shows why it is so important to appreciate the joyful moments in your life while they are within reach – because in a glance they could be lost.
The Wheel of Fortune is also recognized as the wheel of ‘karma’ and hints you that ‘what goes around comes around.’ So, if you want peace, make sure you’re sending out that positive energy to the Universe.
The Wheel of Fortune card invites you to be confident and believe that the Universe will take care of your situation in the best way possible. The magic of luck is behind you, and miracles are happening every moment.
If you are someone who likes to have control over every aspect of life, then the Wheel of Fortune may suggest that factors outside your power are affecting your situation. No matter which way the Wheel turns, it is impossible to change it. You need to go with the flow!
Finally, the Wheel of Fortune can notify a critical turning point in your life. Opportunities you could never imagine could be available to you, and you could have the chance to make an important change in your life suddenly. The more you sync with your intuition and allow the Universe to lead you, the better the results will be.
Reversed
Bad luck, resistance to change, breaking cycles
When the Reversed Wheel of Fortune appears, your luck may take a turn for the most unfortunate. You may experience unexpected negative forces, leaving you in a difficult situation.
If you feel change is forced upon you, the reversed Wheel of Fortune can also show your resistance. This card hints that change has become a source of stress for you, and you may be trying to stop events from running their own course. Accept that change is unavoidable and you will have a much-developed experience when you can go with the flow.
The reversed Wheel of Fortune also might mean that you are breaking a negative cycle that has been present in your life. Perhaps you have realized how your actions were running in circles and are now ready to break free. For some, this may flow naturally following a time of soul-searching and self-discovery. For others, hitting rock bottom is needed before you are ready to see what is no longer serving you (especially if the Devil or Tower card is in your reading).
Knight Of Swords
Upright
Ambitious, action-oriented, driven to succeed, fast-thinking
The Knight of Swords is on a mission, as with other Knights in the Tarot deck – he has set his mind on something and nothing is holding him. Being a Swords card, this Knight actively uses the energy of his mind to achieve his goals.
When the Knight of Swords shows up in a Tarot reading, it is a hint that you are very motivated and ambitious. The difficulties and restrictions on the path don’t frighten you because you know where you need to go. Move forward with pure determination to get things to happen.
The Knight of Swords implies that you take action fast without planning. You succeed on high levels of enthusiasm that drive you and stimulate you to manifest your dreams.
The Knight of Swords reminds you to be confident in getting what you want. He doesn’t wait for something to happen. He is always doing the first movement and actively chasing his goals.
The bad side of the quick-acting Knight of Swords is that sometimes you act too fast and haven’t fully analyzed your decisions through. You may be careless of potential difficulties and problems or the results of your actions. You may be likely to rush things to get a job done. Or, you may track a specific purpose, thinking it is what you want, but later understand that it’s a dead-end. A little planning and arrangement can go a long distance.
The Knight of Swords also signifies your need to know life from an intellectual viewpoint. You have advanced communication abilities and can quickly form solid thoughts and ideas. You love to join with others who have related skills so that you can generate a new perspective by sharing ideas.
Reversed
Restless, unfocused, impulsive, burn-out
The reversed Knight of Swords can show up in a Tarot reading when you are bursting with energy and impulse but cannot efficiently direct and deliver it. You are getting restless and anxious because you want to make progress, but something is keeping you back. Maybe the timing isn’t right, you don’t have enough supplies, or you’re depending on someone else. You need to discover a different plan to channel this energy.
Furthermore, the reversed Knight of Swords implies that you are making reckless and spontaneous decisions. You don’t have mental discipline, and you are continually changing your mind. You need to use a singular focus; choose a plan and then work on it until it is finished.
The reversed Knight of Swords can also recommend that you should relax down; otherwise, you can be very exhausted and burned out. You want to be included in everything, but you are not accomplishing anything. Take some time off so that you can ground yourself, assemble your thoughts and focus on only your highest priorities.
