Tarot Cards of Important Change
THE CHARIOT
The Chariot represents change through focus and determination. It employs harnessed thought and action to successfully achieve objectives. When we focus on achievement with pointed determination, our will-power commands the reigns of change so that we can move in whatever direction we need to succeed. The Chariot reflects the mechanical and metaphorical means of commanding new directions. This translates into the idea of change with new directions that lead to successful outcomes.
WHEEL OF FORTUNE
The Wheel of Fortune represents change through unexplainable chance. It’s a card of fate and destiny but where circumstances usually take a turn for the better. There are times where taking a gamble pays off. Life is filled with unpredictable twists and turns that are filled with infinite potential. Random change for better can happen, so be open to it. The Wheel of Fortune also signifies karma and the ultimate change, where we liberate ourselves from the spinning wheel of existence through self realisation.
DEATH
Death represents inevitable change. We can try to fool ourselves that change doesn’t need to happen but Death forces us to make change whether we like it or not. Inevitable change often requires us to step outside of our comfort zone and so it’s easier to pretend that it doesn’t need to happen. Death represents transformative personal and circumstantial change, it’s a fundamental ending linked to a new beginning. Like a snake shedding its skin, old ways of living become outdated and must make way for new growth and new beginnings.
THE TOWER
The Tower mirrors situations based on shaky ground. Its process is one of upheaval leading to the release of intolerable pressure. When a situation becomes unsupported by flaws and a lack of truthful understanding, catalytic upheaval will produces necessary change. The Tower is inspirational and violent, when the lightening of realisation strikes its lack of integrity is revealed. Then we have no choice but to address our situation with a robust foundation of integrity.
JUDGEMENT
Judgement is a push or a call from within that beckons transformational change. This need for change stems from a recognition to rise up to a more meaningful existence. Through Judgement, we endeavour to understand the truth of who we really are. We can’t fool ourselves with Judgement, deep evolutionary change will only happen if we’re completely honest with ourselves. Judgement often signifies an important crossroads in life that requires us to rise up and make important changes within ourselves.
