The Star

This card is often hoped for by those who use Tarot as a divination tool.

When we draw this card we are represented by the young woman; we are free, complete beings with everything we need at our fingertips.

The Fool

Unencumbered by many possessions, The Fool is free to choose his own path. The card may symbolize a new beginning or a feeling of starting over, but with little worry as to the eventual outcome. The Fool card represents someone who has a happy-go-lucky attitude, and likely does not know where he or she is headed, but feels little anxiety over a lack of certainty. The Fool is child-like, and sometimes childish; the latter being a cause for concern represented in some decks by a cliff face where the character depicted is likely to step off of the edge. The card represents optimism, positivity and spontaneity, but can also indicate a major life change. It is also associated with timelessness, an inexpressible spirituality, and a connection with esoteric beauty. (more…)
