The Wheel
Change, luck turning, or a cycle beginning.
Positive meaning
A wheel is fortune moving. Something stuck begins to turn — often in your favor. A full clear wheel promises a cycle of luck opening up over the coming weeks.
Warning or shadow meaning
A broken wheel warns of a plan that will not gain momentum in its current form. Rebuild the axle before pushing again.
Position in the cup
Near the rim: change arriving fast. At the bottom: a long turning of the tide.
