I both The Rider Deck and Tarot of Marseilles, The Wheel of Fortune X (10) is the first Major Arcana that does not offer a human figure, personality or Archetype as its focal point. The Rider Deck offers the suggestion of human qualities or characteristics, in the four cardinal signs posted in the four corners of the Card. The 4 symbols represent the Astrological Cardinal signs: Aquarius, Scorpio, Taurus and Leo. As The Wheel turns in space, the qualities symbolised by the 4 Sun signs, as does Lucy in The Peanuts Tarot, represents the importance of continued learning to the development of a well-grounded nature; one able to deal with the sudden uncertainties of reality. Like the Rider Deck, The Marseilles' The Wheel X is characterised by mysterious creatures perhaps showing unusual influences and unpredictable events. The unexpected and unfamiliar can cross our path at any time of life. As The Wheel X speaks mostly of destiny and of things that might remain mostly out of our control, the large golden disk in The Rider Deck symbolises abundance and opportunity. These elements often bring some of our most significant life lessons. Life events can appear as coincidences. However, in hindsight, events might be understood as sequences or synchronicities and part of a greater scheme. Perhaps as chapters in The Hero's Journey. The Wheel X represents the certainty that life is never still and that change is the only constant.
