The Wisdom of the Fool
“The fool thinks he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.” – Shakespeare
In the Tarot, the first card of the Major Arcana Cards, which tell the story of the soul's journey through life from Birth to Enlightenment, is the Fool.
The Fool card represents the very beginning of a new journey.
The Wisdom of the Fool invites us all to take a leap of faith, embark on a new path, and step into a new beginning, without fear or attachment to the past.
You don't need to see the entire path before you to embrace the new possibilities aligning for you…
Rather, you can choose to embrace the present moment, and set yourself free!
Free to follow your inner inspirations, to honor your authenticity…
And free to step into the new era emerging before you, with trust and willingness to let Divine Light and Truth shine through all you do.
The Fool card represents the infinite potential ahead, and the innocence and willingness required to step into the new.
The Fool card brings a gentle warning about the pitfalls of impulsiveness, recklessness, and ignorance too.
The Fool reminds us to balance our enthusiasm with awareness, and to cultivate presence and mindfulness as we navigate the unknown.
How can you use the wisdom of the Fool to make this time in your life less stressful and more enjoyable?
How can you have more faith, be more mindful, and have more fun during this period of change?
Spring is a potent time of new beginnings, and the energy of change and newness in amplified with the Eclipse Cycle energies.
So whether you're navigating through huge life changes, or just changing the way you relate to your journey through life…
This is a powerful time to embrace the wisdom of the Fool, who is unafraid to take a leap of faith and embark on a new path.
With love and blessings,
P.S. The Fool Card shown in this post comes from the Rider-Waite Original Tarot
