## Resource

This week on ⁠ The Tarot Diagnosis ⁠ , I explore 2026 as a Wheel of Fortune year , with The Magician as its companion archetype - an invitation to step into the new year embracing change, adaptability, resilience, and meaningful participation. I keep returning to the idea of finding the center of the spinning wheel : not perfect stillness like we’re often led to believe we should be finding, but nervous-system regulation that allows us to observe, reassess, and respond with intention rather than react. I also unpack key symbols from the Wheel of Fortune that feel especially relevant for the year ahead. Clouds represent the liminal space between the known and unknown, reminding us that not seeing the full picture is often just the nature of change. The snake speaks to shedding skin and renewal, framing downward cycles as preparation rather than punishment. And at the heart of it all is the center of the Wheel , which I liken to the eye of a hurricane - a place of presence and regulation where we learn to stay with discomfort without being consumed by it. As always, we will go on both a psychological and esoteric journey as we talk about stepping into the year of the Wheel of Fortune.
