The World Tarot Card Meaning

The World Upright Meaning

The World signifies a completed journey. We have followed the tale through the Major Arcana to the point of completion but that doesn’t mean our journey has ended, it is just a start. Perhaps you’ve completed a project or a relationship has come to an end, something major in your life has been completed and you’re ready to move on. This is just the start, and that’s an exciting possibility. You have been successful in what you set out to do. Reflect upon your journey and all that you have learned, how has it changed you? Celebrate the journey and if you’re not quite finished, the end will come very soon, ensure that you neatly finish the journey by tying together loose ends. In a more literal sense, this card may signify that you are going to travel, going on a literal journey rather than a metaphorical one.
