Tarot Ring - Sterling silver set with Cubic zirconia

The Fool is numbered Zero (0) – the number of Unlimited potential – and so does not have a specific place in the sequence of the Tarot cards. The Fool can be placed either at the beginning of the Major Arcana or at the end. The Major Arcana is often considered The Fool’s journey through life and as such, he is ever present and therefore needs no number.

On The Fool Tarot card, a young man stands on the edge of a cliff, without a care in the world, as he sets out on a new adventure. He is gazing upwards toward the sky and the Universe, and is seemingly unaware that he is about to skip off a precipice into the unknown. Over his shoulder rests a modest knapsack containing everything he needs – which isn’t much. Let’s say he’s a minimalist. The white rose in his left hand represents his purity and innocence. And at his feet is a small white dog, representing loyalty and protection that encourages him to charge forward and learn the lessons he came to learn. The mountains behind The Fool symbolize the challenges yet to come. They are forever present, but The Fool doesn’t care about them right now; he’s more focused on starting his expedition.

The Fool indicates new beginnings will now be presented – fresh challenges. Let your mistakes be your lessons – “look before you leap”. Your choice will affect your life path and others will effect this choice. Consider all the aspects as well as the consequences to yourself. Once you have made your choice you will see your new goals clearly, a strength of purpose will be revealed and you will overcome any fear that exists. Hard work, honesty and ethics are your keys – use your wisdom and opinions in practical ways and trust that marriage and relationships will provide a firm base or foundation. The Fools esoteric name is LOVE – he represents “good” and teaches the “know-how” of passing from intellectuality, which is moved by the desire for knowledge – to a higher knowledge based on love. “Transformation” – the “ego” is no longer the author of the “act” but its receiver, through the decision to sacrifice the intellect to spirituality so that it grows and develops. The human endeavor is united with the action of grace from above – love aimed at universal salvation through the transformation of mankind and Nature. The soul’s journey begins with the separation and opposition of the spiritual and intellectual elements. This advances to a kind of “peaceful coexistence” which soon becomes cooperation. This cooperation, having proven to be fruitful – becomes a complete fusion of these two elements. Finally logic becomes transformed from “formal” logic into “moral” logic, operating with the “value of values” – LOVE. Your prayer is never in vain or without effect.
