The Fool is the first card of the Tarot and is assigned number “zero”, representing the cycle of beginnings and endings. The Fool depicts a man atop a cliff, ambitiously stepping out into the world. Although he may not be fully aware of the potential dangers of his surroundings, he is optimistic about new adventures and ready to face them head on. This card calls us to release fear and self-doubt and embrace the unknown. Have courage and trust that the ancestors will protect and guide you on your journey.
