The Fool's Journey

Our Fool begins his journey through the Major Arcana full of innocence and spontaneity. He is a free spirit ready for adventure. The Magician teaches him about manifestation, and he is inspired to go into action, he feels the power of that resourcefulness. The High Priestess consults the Fool to dive into his subconscious mind and harness the sacred knowledge of the divine feminine by using his intuition. The Empress nurtures the Fool with her natural femininity and beauty. Through her he knows the abundance that is promised along his journey. Yet it is The Emperor who acts as a father figure for our Fool. Counseling him to respect authority and the establishment structures that the Fool encounters on his journey. The Hierophant guides the Fool towards spiritual wisdom gained through religious beliefs and demands the Fool conform to those traditions and institutions.

Along comes The Lovers and they bring an alignment to the Fools values showing him that he has choices. That he is the one who decides his path, guiding him toward harmony and love. While they worked to show him the way The Chariot storms through with determination with a great show of control and willpower. It is the pure action and promised success that draw our fool away from the Lovers now. To achieve this the Fool must understand the influence and persuasion Strength has over others. It is time for some soul-searching as he seeks out The Hermit for some inner guidance. Being alone allows our Fool to be introspective along his journey.

The Wheel of Fortune has brought about good luck for our Fool as he reaches a turning point in his epic journey. Justice reminds our Fool that actions have consequences and reminds him to be fair and truthful along his journey. It is now that the Fool pauses at the insistence of The Hanged Man. He surrendered to a new perspective as Death calls in a transformation for our Fool. An ending of sorts as he adjusts to the many changes that come along the Fools journey.

Temperance guides our Fool to find balance in moderation and patience. He now has purpose as he faces The Devil who forces him to face his shadow self. Along the journey our Fool developed some addictions that are hindering his progress. The Tower brings sudden change, upheaval, and chaos as the Fool is awakened to these revelations.

From the rubble The Star brings a renewal of hope, faith, spirituality, and purpose for our Fool. The Moon guides the Fool down the path away from the illusions of his Shadow Self and away from his fear and anxiety. It guides him to reconnect with his intuition. The Sun shines once again on our Fool as he is filled with vitality, positivity, and warmth as he celebrates his success. It is now that Judgement brings about a rebirth of your inner calling, and absolution of sorts. The World has come to celebrate the completion of the Fools travels and accomplishments
