The Fool
What can be said about The Fool? Numbered zero in the deck, it stands for new beginnings. The young chimney sweep in this card denotes childlike awe and inspiration. Not bogged down by society and not aware of society's true expectations of him. He stands on the roof, in unsullied clothes, above the toil that others deal with and is prepared to begin his journey of life. The sunrise in the background adds to this new beginning. The original card is often depicted similarly: a young character carrying a rucksack on a stick, standing on the precipice, about to leap down into the world below, accompanied by a white dog as their guiding light. Often showing clean or pure imagery such as the white flower and clean clothes, the card pushes the idea of "new."This was my card for March. I will note it was reversed, however my deck doesn't want to be read as such, luckily. This month already begins a new class of illustration. One week in and it's already proving more intensive than my previous classes. I'm a little lost on what our final project entails, however I hope I can figure it out soon. I might seek help from my Fiancé's sister who has a much more in depth background in drawing. This could mean I am going to get a job. The thought doesn't excite me, if I'm honest. I struggle to sit down and do things without a job. I dread how much more difficult it is when I work a full time job.
I still have yet to contact a potential therapist. Time just got away from me these past couple weeks. I know, it's a simple email. But I gotta mentally prepare for that. What if they respond? It's too much to think about.
