Wheel
- suggests movement, becoming and passing away
- symbolizes cycles of renewal, the cycle of life and cycles that come around in their turn
- represents transitoriness and perpetual change
- symbol of fate and destiny
- suggests the world of manifestation, with the circumference as the boundary and the center as the point that produces radiation and power
- represents Time, Fate and Karma
- “the squeaky wheel gets the grease” means that those who complain the loudest or most persistently get what they want
- “the wheel comes full circle” means that things eventually reach a situation resembling that from which they started
- “the wheel of fortune is forever in motion” means that people’s fortunes are constantly changing
Arc
- represents that which is dynamic, that which moves life along and that which inspires growth
- the coloring of the different segments of the wheel suggests a story arc, which is an extended or continuing storyline whose purpose is to move a character or situation from one state to another, often taking the form of a tragic fall from grace or a reversal of that pattern
