Why I love The Fool

I’ve been pulling daily Tarot cards for a while now.

Every time the Fool comes up in a reading, I smile, as it is my favourite card of the whole deck.
If any card would represent the life I would like to lead, it’s the Fool.
The meaning of The Fool card is as follows:
Beginnings, innocence, spontaneity, a free spirit
(from biddy Tarot)
And I love that it’s possible to tell a tale of a journey of the Fool through the whole major arcana, as described here.
The Fool is my favourite, because he embodies all the qualities of a life filled with joy. Spontaneous people aren’t drowning in fears and insecurities, they are driven by leaps of joy.

A personal goal for this year is to Be More Fool, to invite its qualities of spontaneity and free-spirited nature into my life.
I hope this will open me up to create what my heart wants to create for Leap to Joy!

The Fool reminds me of the Scottish proverb — Be happy while you’re living, for you’re a long time dead. I like this card, too, because it reminds me to open up to possibilities.
