Day 142: Reading the Cards II: The Wrath of Card

So today’s card is the Wheel of Fortune. Maybe I should buy a vowel?

Here’s a meaning, as continue teaching myself with the web:

The Wheel of Fortune is a very auspicious card. When pulled in a reading it generally indicates a happy, unexpected event is in the works. However, take a look at the card, and you see an unfortunate fellow falling off the side. As is the nature of fate, sometimes surprises aren’t so happy. It is important to note here that what is “good” or “bad” is all in our interpretation. When what may appear as an unsavory event showing up unexpectedly in our lives we must try our best to recognize some potential good from the situation. We may not see any benefit in the tragedy – but down the line (when the Wheel turns again) circumstances from that tragedy may lead to amazing and positive influences.

Okay, this seems fitting since I’m doing career readings a day at a time. There’s a great deal of change happening right now in my program, and it could– and indeed might– end up being really good for me. It could be bad for others. It could, of course, also go bad for me. That’s the academy for you. But yes, I can see how this works.

And it only took me one day to get a card that wasn’t an actual wrestler, though with the PPV coming this Sunday, it’s super fitting that I drew the Money in the Bank case. In the kayfabe of wrestling, Money in the Bank is a “virtual” guarantee that a person wins the championship, though it’s often not the way the person would have expected to. Two people have failed in their cash-ins. The only person to cash in for a normal match was Rob Van Dam (well, and Cena, but Cena lost because Cena sucks).
But in the sense of how wrestling is booked, the MitB case is given to someone who is ready for the next step. It’s the booking team’s way of saying “you deserve to be in the spotlight; here’s your attaboy.”

Seems fitting, depending on how the wheel turns over here. I’ll take it.
