X — The Wheel of Fortune/ Migration
X — Wheel of Fortune/ Migration
The destiny of the ocean's creatures are wrapped up in their seasonal migrations in much the same way that our fortunes and successes are shaped by the visible and invisible patterns we create in our daily lives. In the Rider-Waite deck the Wheel of Fortune has more to do with happenstance, gambling, disarray than any patterns one could predict. In Migration, the idea is a little different. It is true that a gray whale, migrating from Alaska to Baja California, might be subjected to various unforeseen dangers (whalers, sharks, illness) but still there is a larger idiosyncratic pattern that is driving the whale to migrate in the first place.
What an outside observer calls luck the whale, responding to the call to migrate, would say that there are greater spiritual forces at work here and that, when followed, these forces will guide the whale to the birthing lagoons in Baja. The same thing can be said of our lives; everything has its own life patterns, regardless of whether you travel a million miles to see it out or simply open and close in your daily tide pool. When you allow these forces of abundance to work with you versus against you things become ingenuously simple to accomplish.
Ask yourself, should Migration wander into your reading, what are some of the daily patterns you have created that act upon your life, and in relationship, connect to your question? Should the card be reversed in your reading, then we are dealing with some of the more darker patterns of your life; see which of these you are fighting with? Are there "issues" that seem to haunt you? (addictions?obsessions?) Once you see your own patterns and the forces in your life then you can act accordingly to follow them and harvest the increase they bring.
