The Fool
This picture was taken on the shore of the Boulder creek. The young man had just finished creating scultpures with stones in the water. He was the clear picture of the fool for love, creating something beautiful for its own sake and for our pleasure. I found out that it took him two days to create these sculptures, and dispite the wind these stones hadn't moved. The balance was incredible. I felt as though I had come upon a mystical scene, the creation with the creator.
This card is the zero, or first card in the deck, because as I said in the card, he is iconoclastic...he walks the earth to the beat of his own drum. He is represented often as a wanderer by a cliff. He can jump and not be afraid. In other words, he leaps into the unknown fearlessly never losing his sense of humor about life, trials and error, mistakes, and physical impedements.
When I see this card in a reading it is signaling to me that the person has to face his or her fears of change and practice laughter along the way. It is time to be brave. Rehearsing being brave is very useful along the way to leaving the body into the mystery of our being. It is a strong reminder that we are ON A JOURNEY!
This is a picture of our beautiful fools artwork.
