lady luck and fortune's wheel

Two plays come to mind. "Romeo and Juliet" who no longer could rely upon their families and were thrown upon the "wheel of fortune" . Believe me it is possible to make a Tarot reading of the play. The mysteries are there. You have the recluse frair, the world, the lovers and their good luck comes only by night The suits of the families are swords and cups etc. The other play is "Timon of Athens" who seems intent on superceding fortune. Her it is a case of Hubrus.
