Fortune



The (Wheel of) Fortune Arcana represents destiny, change, and luck. This is usually given to characters who have a direct response with destiny, either by following it or attempting to control it. Personas of this Arcana specialize in Wind magic.

Tarot Card Analysis
Right off the bat, one can tell the Wheel of Fortune is about fate and rotation. The tarot card is neither good, or bad. It is simply thematic to the world. Unlike other tarots that at least allow understanding, the Fortune card cannot be understood, nor harnessed.

In the card, the arrow is the head of a sphinx. Much like the one in Chariot's card. At the top is Anubis, representing intelligence and judgement, while at the bottom is Typhon, representing evil. Wherever the arrow is pointing, the Sphinx says it will be so. Such changes in fate cannot be prevented, though they can be seen coming. These changes are not good or bad, though depending on the user's perspective, it can be warped in such a way.

Reversed Meaning
Unlike the rest of the tarots, the Fortune Arcana doesn't heavily change in it's meaning. Instead, the consequences of fate can often be muddled. Commonly, good luck can come with bad results, or bad luck can come with good results.
