What does the tide turned mean?
It means that the tide currents have shifted. There are two main tides: high tide and low tide. When the tide is high or rising toward high, currents are driven toward the beach. When it is low or dropping toward low, the currents are driven away from the beach. Some people also use the term to refer to life situations that change. You could say "the tide turned" when someone was seriously ill and became better, or if things were looking bad for someone and changed to a good outlook.
