Irreverent #Tarot 8: The Fool

on

Episode 8: Mostly the Fool card. Some quick thoughts with a few different examples and why it seems to permeate life at present. The Fool steps into the abyss: foolish or hopeful? Is the Fool deranged or just using that as a disguise? The Jester v The Vagabond–or are they all just disguises? Almost everybody puts the Fool at the start — with one notable exception.

Tarots appearing: Vandenborre Bacchus, Sola Busca, Visconti-Sforza, Book of Thoth Etteilla (AKA Le Grande Jeu de l’Oracle des Dames 1870, Lo Scarabeo), Carnival at the End of the World (Kahn & Selesnick). Mentioned but not visible: #LeonoraCarrington’s Fool.
