Arcanum 10 (The Wheel of Fortune) in the Matrix of Destiny: Meaning, Plus, Minus, Positions

Arcanum 10 (The Wheel of Fortune): the Archetype and the Essence

The archetype of arcanum 10 is the Person of cycles and change. The Tenth arcanum is cycles, change and luck. The Wheel of Fortune teaches you to catch the wave, to change in good time and to accept that life moves in ups and downs. This is the arcanum of fate, chances and turning points. For a person with a "ten" it is important to act on the upswing and not to despair on the downswing. This is not a "good" or a "bad" arcanum: every energy has a resourceful and a distorted side, and the task is to turn arcanum 10 towards the plus.
