Welcome to the first of our articles regarding the major arcana of the mystic tarot.
In this article it is right that we shall discuss the first card in the deck, the card know as The Fool. First in the deck and related to the joker card in a standard deck of cards, however the card is numbered zero. It is quite correct that is should be so, as the fool signifies a new beginning in life, the start of a new journey of sorts and everything begins with zero. Zero plus a number becomes that number, but beware, when the card is reversed means it warns of folly, watch where you step, zero times a number remains zero.
Astrologically, the card is governed by the most eccentric of all the planets Uranus, and the airy element which makes it as free as the wind, and is represented by the Hebrew letter Aleph. Its representation of a new beginning is one of general good feeling about the exciting journey ahead, of wild and sometimes reckless abandon, nothing you do can go wrong, expect the unexpected.
Generally, this can be a good and positive card to receive, and unlike the other cards, the fool represents the querant alone. However despite all the good indications there is still the little warning of caution if the querant is contemplating a new venture such as what seems like a sure business deal, or a new job or relationship, be cautious or you may end up looking the fool.
