The Fool, #0:
When learning to interpret tarot cards, from my experience, many begin with the major arcana. These cards, just as the minor arcana, are numbered as well. The Fool is number 0, the beginning. This card generally represents innocence in its purest form. There is neither positive or negative energies, but both. It is often playful, enthusiastic, curious, ignorant. With this ignorance and innocence, there is belief in all possibilities and perfect trust, a sence of fearlessness in others. Many decks hold an image of a young traveler on the edge of a cliff. You cannot really see what lies below so a leap of faith is required to move forward on this path. Note that such leaps or journeys may have a degree of risk and a certainty of change that is undeterminable. Both day and night are often represented in the image of this card showing a balance of positive and negative energies, balance of female and male energies. The image of a dog is often within this card representing a friend who may be pushing you into a decision or taking that leap of faith. Sometimes risk is required and the need to leave something behind to find success in life. A newfound since of freedom can be found within and a since of rebellion. It is a card of the present and possibilities of the future. Run with it! Have fun! It can indecate the need for spontinaity and creativity. Sometimes choices presented are those not of practical minds which can be frownd upon by others so the person involved may have some difficulty accepting help or advice. There is also the strong since of destiny. It is potential and faith. Again, there is so much more than this....it is a beginning.
When working with health questions this card can represent some kind of hunger or poor eating habits.
As mentioned earlier, there are many differing interpretations of tarot and each card. The interpretation is based upon the reader's experiences, learned knowledge, feelings, and what is seen or focused upon within each image. The information above is only a beginning.
If you have questions, please let me know and I will address them to the best of my knowledge.
Until then...may you find what you seek.
