Chapultepec, Mexico 5 februari 2023
Friday january 29 I landed in Mexico city, after a flight of twelve hours. How exciting it was, my first trip alone by plane and then immediately so far away. For me als an AT-er that is quite a step, if I do say so myself. AT means Twins Born Alone. I am of triplets. So now I was allowed to experience again how sensational it is to once again leave ‘something’ behind and take a leap of faith.

The Fool Tarot Card Description
To fully understand the Fool tarot card meaning, we will first take a look at the illustration, its colors, and symbolism. The Fool tarot card depicts an innocent soul, walking joyfully and excited into the world. He is gazing upwards toward the sky and is seemingly unaware that he is about to topple over the cliff into the unknown. He carries nothing with him except a bindle, containing all his worldly possessions. The white rose in his left-hand shows, as white would suggest, purity, freedom. The explosive decal on his clothing represents potentiality. At the feet of the fool is a small white dog. He represents loyalty and protection, that encourages the fool to charge forward and learn the lessons he came to learn. The mountains behind the Fool symbolize the long journey and its challenges yet to come.
The Fool Tarot Card Meaning
The Fool tarot card is the number 0 of the Major Arcana, which stands for the number of unlimited potentials. Therefore it does not have a specific place in the sequence of the tarot cards. Its place is either at the beginning or at the end of a sequence. The Major Arcana is often considered the Fool’s journey through life. As such, he is ever-present and therefore needs no number. When you are feeling butterflies in your stomach because you are so excited about new goals, this can be that you are in the Fools state of mind. To see the Fool tarot card generally indicates that you are on the verge of an unexpected and exciting new adventure. This may require you to take a blind leap of faith. There will be a rewarding experience that will contribute to your growth as a human being. The new adventure could be a literal one and may involve traveling to a new land or territories you’ve never visited before. The change this card can bring will usually be a welcome one. You can also see it as a call to the risk-taking part of your own character. The card inspires you to open up new areas in your life. With that comes a mixture of anticipation, wonder and curiosity.
All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience.”
— Henry Miller
