I would say that this person has some Karma headed their way, it can be virtuous and non virtuous. However changes will affect you depends on where you are on the wheel. If you are at the top then any change could throw you off, but if you are the bottom then a change could start you back up to the top. The appearance of the Wheel of Fortune shows that change is not only likely to happen, it is certain to happen.
Dealing with the past, this person has had a lot of ups and downs, has experienced life. Don't be surprised when learning or hearing their stories, they have many to tell.
