I see a lot of posts circulating about interpreting card reversals, and just wanted to share this helpful mnemonic devised by Benebell Wen.
When a reversal shows up in one of your readings, remember this acronym to think about the possible meanings.
WIND:
Weakened energy of card meaning – are other forces overpowering the card’s energy or preventing it from manifesting?
Inverted (or opposite) meaning of card – this one’s self explanatory.
Negative influence on Seeker – is this energy hindering rather than helping the Seeker? Is there someone in the Seeker’s life who embodies these traits?
Delay before the card’s outcome will materialize – does the Seeker need to take additional steps before the card’s energy will manifest? Or is it simply a matter of “wait and see”?
