Wheel of Fortune
The Wizard's Wheel represents the great mystery of life that we cannot control or fully understand. It symbolizes the inevitable changes, fate, and the duality of fortune and misfortune. Like the magical wheel hanging between oak and holly, our life experiences form the complex tapestry of our existence, where every gift comes with a price and meaning lies in embracing the full diversity of our journey.

The Magical Wheel in the Forest
In the midst of the forest, one can see a magical wheel crafted by the Wizard himself, hanging between an oak and a holly tree. It bears charms symbolizing life and death, healing and poison, mystery and wisdom, time and timelessness. Each detail of this magical instrument affects its power, just as our life experiences compose our lives.
The Activation Spell
To set the wheel in motion, one must speak these words: 'Yarrow, skullcap, foxglove, burdock, vervain.' The spell is sealed by magpies—one for sorrow, two for joy—as well as an egg, bone, claw, skull, and magpie feather.
The Wizard's Purpose
Why was this wheel created—to perplex and confuse? Who knows? Wizards do not explain their actions.
The Great Mystery
The Wizard's Wheel is a great enigma, something we cannot control or understand. If there is any meaning in our lives, it is clearly contained in the fullness and diversity of this complex path. Practically all gifts must be paid for. Sometimes during the spell only one magpie appears, while another arrives at the right time, changing sorrow to joy.
Brief Meaning
The inevitability of change. Great mystery. Fate and fortune. Good luck and bad luck.
Upon Closer Look
Plants possessing healing, magical, and poisonous properties form the central star: yarrow (magical protection), skullcap (sleep and trance states), burdock (fairy medicine), foxglove (heals the heart but can also be poison), and vervain (antidote to poison). Seven magpies are present in the image, including in the form of an egg, feather, skull, or bird.
