Sat on these for almost 2 years now, figured I might as well jump the gun and post em finally. The whole problem came because I wanted to do two variations; one without the headpiece and one with to remain spoiler friendly. But Ticker's headpiece was not cooperating with me and I just became incredibly disillusioned with trying to work it out.
Happy Stardays :]

**************’ -Pay the price- ‘**************
(click on image for better quality!!)I really liked shot up close to Fortuna, when we only saw her on screen small, like everyone else. It kind of made us in touch with situation on hand: we can’t say no to paying the price despite how both parties were saddened by that. Oh and relationship with Abramar being strained after that is a nice touch, realistic, even if we promised to him there will be no hatred after that (I choose “found family” trope with him)

“The Ineffable Wheel of Misfortune”.
Tumblr media
Some time ago, I wrote a small meta about this. I truly never go much into that terrain here, but I did write a study on the Goddess Fortuna and thought it most appropriate to share some of the facts about her wheel of Fortune here.
I will not go into much detail about who exactly Fortuna was. Her depictions vary from culture to culture and from age to age (Tyche being the name in Greek, which came before the Roman Fortuna, but many debates have been had about these origins and even comparing the two). But if there is something that remains; one essential aspect: her wheel.
Tumblr media
One very important quote from the Prime extra videos revealing some easter eggs:
"There isn't a single prop or a single bit of costume that hasn't been thought through". And that begs the question, why show this prop so openly in the easter eggs section, but not in the show itself?
As Dylan Thomas wisely said: to begin at the beginning- although just to emphasize something:
Fortuna’s wheel is commonly known as the wheel of Fortune- yet what we have here is a wheel of misfortune. But there are two contradicting factors here, namely “misfortune” and “ineffable” fitting in the same description.
Now fate and ineffability could shake hands sometimes, depending on the belief of the doer. But ineffable and misfortune throws us unto different territory.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now before focusing on the words of the wheel, let’s take a look at the picture keeping the wheel together.
Not only is the bench uniting the two figures (obviously you can see who they are), but the color scheme derives from here too. Cloud and flame, combine into each panel with the flaming sword and the fluffy, goat opposite. Horns and halo are on clear display, but this wheel has no pointer to indicate which fate is chosen. An outside force spins the wheel (Fortuna herself), but where does it land? The only pointer- indicator- is the flaming sword. It comes out of the circle, it is the guidance. It is quite literally cutting through the fabric of Fortune because even though Fortuna spins the fate, the sword guards against any circumstance.
Is this a prediction of Aziraphale taking the center place in guiding and protecting against all odds? Most definitely.
Now, you’ve probably seen the Zodiac signs on the wheel. Those are there because:
Tumblr media
Although this states that the wheel of fortune moves from east to west (counterclockwise), let’s keep in mind that this wheel defies fortune and is actually ineffable misfortune.
For that reason, one takes the liberty to assume that this wheel spins in a clockwise direction (west to east).
One reason I am reading this "clockwise" is because I want to correlate it to Crowley's "it's always too late" and to "metaphorically started ticking", as if the options on the wheel follow time strictly in a way. But the wheel has a mind of it’s own:
Tumblr media
A wheel can rotate indefinitely. So even if there is a stop at a certain spot, it most definitely will change again. It is in this case, an eternal repetition of ups and downs.
Tumblr media
One can fall from the wheel and rise again. Interestingly when reading what’s on the wheel, one starts with the upper left hand side- the best moment at the moment. Coincidentally, ineffably, Aziraphale’s flaming sword is pointing exactly to that point - “blessing for you”.
Spin the wheel and you’ll land on the next part- good news.
Notice how you’ll go through some seemingly good events until you reach those that can be read as their opposites. Even putting it like that, a blessing for you can come back again and not be a blessing at all.
On the image above, the qualities are also opposite their negatives. For example peace-war, patience-impatience, and so on.
On the ineffable wheel of misfortune you could choose to read it as color opposites. So take the yellow "pleasure ahead" and match it with the opposite yellow "going on a journey" and it still makes sense, it could be the good and the bad- or it could be nothing at all.
There are many wheels of fortune out there, eternally rotating by the hands of a force outside our control.
Hopefully you’ll have realized by now that even though the wheel belongs to Fortuna in mythology and literature and art and everywhere else, this wheel belongs to God.
Because God plays an ineffable game of their own devising- much like Fortuna does with the fate of mankind.
Yet, there is room to escape the wheel. To defy ineffability, to build another wheel turned by your own hands and to finally say “it’s not too late”.

Tyche
In Greek mythology, Tyche is the goddess and personification of good luck, chance, and fortune. Tyche's popularity grew after the Classical period when many cities and officials across the Greek world and the Mediterranean adopted her as their patron deity and sacrifices were made at her shrines. Her popularity endured for hundreds of years.
Tyche was represented in many forms of art and was instantly recognisable by her mural crown and the rudder and cornucopia she held. Various writers describe her as 'all-powerful' and 'wise'. Her Roman counterpart is the goddess, Fortuna.
Birth & Family
According to Hesiod (c. 700 BCE) in his Theogony, Tyche was one of the many daughters of the Titans Oceanus and Tethys and a sister to many, including the Oceanids Electra, Ourania, Metis, Styx (goddess of the underworld), and Calypso. As a daughter of Oceanus, Tyche was said to have a connection with the water, which is evident in the rudder she holds in artistic representations of her. Other sources claimed that she was the daughter of Zeus, even though she is mentioned as his cousin in the Theogony.

Omg I can’t believe the eel isn’t real! That genuinely looks like a screenshot from the game well done

Look at my edits, boy. People have been believing in an eel since the early days of the Cotl fandom, atleast here on tumblr. Go call the Valentines phone number the devs put out again and ask them to make Fortuna real, it'd be funny. Or dont, i'm not your boss.
