Tarot: The Fools Journey
In a tarot deck, the Fool is the unnumbered card. It is also called the Jester. It is one of the most significant cards in the deck as it is said to represent us. It is said to be the card of beginnings. He represents innocence and spontaneity.
When weaving a tarot story, it is generally called the Fool’s Journey. The way the Major Arcana cards are spread during a tarot reading is the path the Fool takes through the mysteries of life. At the start of the story, the Fool is open and fresh. He is ready to embrace whatever comes his way.
His innocence is bordering on naivety. This is obvious in how the tarot card reading is depicted – usually with the Fool teetering on the edge of the cliff. He is unaware of the possible dangers that could befall him. As the story unfolds and he meets other characters or archetypes found in the tarot deck, the Fool is said to learn more about life. The last deck of the tarot cards is the World, which represents fulfillment.
This storytelling method is a good way to introduce the meaning of the Major Aracana cards to beginners. Each card represents a challenge or an achievement that the querent goes through. It practices the tarot reader’s interpretation and analysis skills for each card in the deck. For the querent, on the other hand, understanding the Fool’s journey in a spread laid out for you may mean having a better grasp of what to expect in the future.
