The last Major Arcana card in tarot is the World. It pictures a naked woman or a hermaphrodite with a staff in each hand. She is surrounded by a green wreath and the heads of four creatures: a lion, an ox, an eagle and a human face. They are claimed to be a symbol of the four evangelists: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. The numerical value of the World is nine and it is predominated by Saturn.
This card stands for accomplishment, fulfillment, and completion of your personal cycle. It might be a successful finish of some project or a chapter in your life. In general, the World is about success. It is also associated with culmination of events a
nd a sense of repleteness. It might mean moving to a new place or even new country.
According to tarot cards interpretations, the World is also about integrating and experiencing wholeness. It stands for bringing all parts together and combining them in order to achieve dynamic balance. The World’s aim is to create synthesis and make people work in unision. It makes you realise that you cannot achieve a lot on your own. Only cooperating with others will bring you closer to success. Complexity in your actions is also important, as you have to take different factors into account to fully exploit your potential and achieve your goal.
These tips will help you to get to the top and accomplish as much as possible. The World is associated with fulfilling your heart’s desires and making your dreams come true.

You will also feel gratitude, count your blessings and just enjoy your accomplishments.
The appearance of the World in tarot cards reading means that the time to get reward for the work you had done has come. However, it is a sing that the present cycle comes to an end and soon another will begin. You have already achieved what you wanted to achieve, fulfilled your dreams and desires and now you enjoy the results of your long spiritual journey. But life goes on and it makes sense only if you strive towards something. Therefore you have to set new aims, pursue new goals and look for new ways to go. Now you can just be happy about your success and celebrate, but this celebration will end eventually.
As far as the material world is concerned, this card could be a sing of a promotion to a higher position or achieving a new level of knowledge. Either way, this joy cannot last forever. According to tarot cards interpretations, after the phase represented by the World comes the one represented by the Fool. This is a cycle of life shown by the Major Arcana. The end of the journey is the beginning of a new one.
If the World appears reversed in reading, it stands for inertia, stagnation and frustration. Sometimes the fear of changes makes you unable to complete your actions and fulfill your dreams and desires. It also means lack of trust and hesitation. Remember that unless you finish the present stage of your life, you won’t be able to start a new one. Don’t be afraid. There are no more obstacles on your way. All the work is already done. You deserve a moment of joy and happiness to enjoy your achievements and gather strength to make a new start. Just be grateful for the gifts you have received and get ready to jump into life again.
