That may be getting married or having children or just being in a very happy, secure, loving and committed place in your relationship. There are whole worlds opening up to you and your partner, enjoy this time, you have both had to work to get your relationship to this point. If you are single, The World signifies that there are so many options open to you. It suggests that you have worked hard to overcome your personal challenges to reach stage where you are at peace with yourself and your place in the world. This can only mean good things for you romantically, as like attracts like. When you are comfortable with yourself, happy and open to the possibilities this life has to offer you will draw someone amazing into your life. It can also be an indication that you may meet someone new while travelling or someone who travels a lot perhaps as part of their job. It also suggests that you will be popular and in-demand.

Money & Career

In a career context, The World can represent reaching your career goals. If you have gone into business for yourself, it represents reaching a point, after all the stress and uncertainty of the start-up phase when you weren?t sure it would work, where your business is a success and you can finally breathe a sigh of relief! Enjoy the fruits of your hard work, you deserve it and remember to share your success with the people who helped you along the way. If you work for someone else, it can represent finally getting the position you always dreamed of or completing a successful project that will get you the recognition you deserve. The World in a career Tarot reading can also represent travelling in relation to work. In a financial context, The World indicates that money should be coming your way. However, this is not encouragement to gamble or make risky investments, rather it tells you that all the hard work you?ve been doing is going to pay off. Maybe you?ll receive an unexpected but well-deserved bonus or you will land a big contract which will give you financial security or maybe you?ll just reach the point where you feel financially secure after a long period of scrimping and saving. Whatever it is, your finances will be looking good with The World in your Tarot reading.

The World
Reversed Meaning Guide
The World Tarot Card Key Meanings:

Lack of success, stagnation, lack of achievement, disappointment, burden, lack of completion

General Meaning and Interpretation

In a general context, The World Tarot card reversed can indicate that you have not accomplished what you set out to do and things have become stagnant. You may have tried to take shortcuts instead of putting in the hard work necessary to achieve your dreams. You may be throwing all your energy into trying to make something work that is not working for you. The World reversed can signify feeling stuck in a situation. This will be one particular part of your life that is taking up your energy rather than problems in all areas. You may be aware of what is it already as it will be a focus for you and you may feel burdened by it. Remember that there is no point in flogging a dead horse. So if you?ve thrown everything you?ve got a something and it?s still not working for you, The World reversed may be telling you that it?s time to accept the disappointment and cut your losses.

Love & Relationships

In a love Tarot spread, if you are in a relationship, The World reversed can indicate that your relationship has become stagnant. It may be that you and your partner have let things slide and you need to put more effort in to the relationship and having open and honest communication to get it back on track. If, however, you have been putting serious work into your relationship but it doesn?t seem to be getting any better, you may need to consider if this is the right relationship for you. If you are single, you may feel that your love life has fallen flat but ask yourself if you?ve been making enough effort to get out and meet the right people. Prince/Princess charming is not just going to knock on your door and sweep you off your feet. You have to get out and meet people. Don?t be afraid to put yourself out there. The World reversed can also indicate that you are struggling to move on from a relationship that ended without warning. Perhaps a previous partner suddenly cut you off without warning or didn?t give you the time you needed to come to terms with the end of relationship. This can be incredibly difficult to deal with as you have not had an opportunity to get closure. Don?t wish your life away waiting for them to come back. You may never get closure from your previous partner so you must focus on finding another way to make your peace with what has happened. Ask the universe to help you in this and keep yourself open to opportunities for healing. You will get through it in time but it will take a big conscious effort on your part, so put your focus into that.

Money & Career

In a career context, The World reversed can indicate that you have not reached the career goals you have set for yourself. It can also signify that you are falling short of your potential. Ask yourself what is holding you back? Have you putting the effort in? Are you afraid to strive to be all you can be for fear of failure? Are you stuck in a career that does not fulfil you? Remember you are the master of your own destiny. Don?t be afraid to make mistakes, mistakes are how we learn. And don?t be afraid to think outside the box or take an unconventional career path if it?s what you love to do. In a financial Tarot spread, The World Tarot card reversed can indicate that your finances have become stagnant. There are always things you can do to help yourself. Don?t try to take shortcuts or engage in risky investments or get rich quick schemes to boost your bank balance. Hard work, consistency and determination are needed to get you into a comfortable financial position.

Health

In a health context, if you have been suffering from an illness, The World reversed can indicate that you need to rethink your treatments. If you have been trying the same things over and over and they have not been working, The World reversed is telling to try something different. This does not mean ignore your doctor?s advice but maybe try a holistic approach in conjunction with your current treatments that will compliment them and boost your health. However, if you have been failing to complete treatments like a course of medication or complete a fitness plan, The World reversed tells you to stop trying to take shortcuts and finish what you?ve started, if you want to resolve your health issues.

Spirituality

In a spiritual context, The World reversed indicates that you may feel your spirit connection has become stagnant and that you are unable or have lost the will to progress. When this happens sometimes we need to try a different approach. Why not try something you?ve never tried before? Try something new and interesting to reignite your passion. Alternatively, if you have not been putting the work into your spiritual pursuits, it tells you to be honest with yourself. There are no shortcuts to your spiritual path. You have to want to follow the path and put the effort in.
