Wheel

Wheels, Spinning wheel, Wheel of fortune

The wheel is one of humanity's oldest inventions, and dreaming of one is often about motion, progress and the cycles that keep coming around. A wheel turning smoothly suggests things are moving forward with little friction. The old image of the wheel of fortune, lifting some people up while others come down, carries the idea of life's ups and downs. A spinning wheel, the kind used for thread, is more patient: the slow, steady work of making something by hand. Wagon wheels rolling west bring a sense of a long trip and a fresh start.

Dream variations

• Building a wheel from scratchYou may be making something that already exists. Ask around before you put in more effort.
• A wheel spinning in mudPushing harder is only digging you in deeper. Find some traction first: a helper, a clearer plan or firmer ground.
