You are the Fool card. The
Fool fearlessly begins
the journey into the unknown. To do
this, he
does not regard the world he knows as firm
and
fixed. He has a seemingly reckless disregard
for
obstacles. In the Ryder-Waite deck, he is
seen stepping off a
cliff with his gaze on the
sky, and a rainbow is there to
catch him. In
order to explore and expand, one must
disregard
convention and conformity. Those in the
throes
of convention look at the
unconventional,
non-conformist personality and think What
a
fool. They lack the point of view to understand
The
Fool's actions. But The Fool has roots in
tradition as one who
is closest to the spirit
world. In many tribal cultures, those
born with
strange and unusual character traits were
held
in awe. Shamans were people who could
see
visions and go on journeys that we now
label
hallucinations and schizophrenia. Those
with
physical differences had experience
and
knowledge that the average person could
not
understand. The Fool is God. The number of
the
card is zero, which when drawn is a
perfect
circle. This circle represents both
emptiness
and infinity. The Fool is not shackled
by
mountains and valleys or by his physical body.
He
does not accept the appearance of cliff and
air as being
distinct or real. Image from: Mary
