Reading it in the past, present and future positions
In a three-card reading, the same card can be understood differently depending on the position where it appears.
In the past position

In the present position
UprightNow is a turning point when things can easily start to move. Events that seem like coincidence appear to be lining up at just the right time.

ReversedAfter a time that seems still, you may be heading toward a moment when the wheel turns again. Gather your strength so you're ready.
