X - Fortune

One of the most positive cards in the deck, Fortune speaks to us of a change in fortunes, a rebalancing of destiny. It is generally good fortune, as people who are not troubled by something do not usually seek the guidance of the cards.

It tells us of unexpected gain, events, or people - something that has the power to change your life and help you discover your role and purpose. It reminds us to be flexible and alert, for we must see the opportunities and be able to adjust course to meet them. The biggest changes come out of the blue, and we can begin to see the larger picture and the interconnectedness of all things.

Ill versed it can speak of a turning point, and of failure to prepare. We must continue to grow and evolve and to do that takes effort. If you don’t put the effort in you will be disappointed, and will view it as bad luck or bad fate. It takes work to make the unconscious conscious, and you create your own luck by being prepared to seize any opportunities as they arise.
