The Wheel Spinner
Fractal Persona of the Causal Chakra
Theme: Repetition, Endless Cycles & Futile Motion
🌌 A Day in the Life of The Wheel Spinner
The Wheel Spinner Oracle Card
I awaken each day and feel as if I’ve lived it before. The faces may change, the places may shift, but the pattern is the same. No matter how far I walk, the road circles back. I am caught in the wheel.
At dawn, I make promises to change, to do things differently, yet by noon I find myself in the same arguments, the same fears, the same choices repeating like echoes. My soul longs for freedom, but my hands clutch the rim of the spinning wheel, unable to let go.
Throughout the day, I sense the cycles replaying—not just mine, but those of my ancestors, of lifetimes long past. The wheel turns relentlessly, dragging me through lessons unlearned, as if destiny were a treadmill I cannot step off.
At night, I fall asleep knowing tomorrow may bring the same. The sorrow of The Wheel Spinner is not only the repetition itself, but the despair that nothing can ever change.
