Flashfic Challenge #86: The Fool
This card is from the Druidcraft Tarot deck.
The Fool Tarot card meaning deals with that youthful exuberance we feel when starting out on a new adventure or taking a journey of faith. We feel anticipation, butterflies flutter in our stomach, and our skin prickles with excitement...our journey is underway - we're unstoppable!
However, along with this passion comes impetuousness. The Fool makes no plans, or gives no thought to possible complications along the way. Happy to be doing something different, the Fool blindly sets out where all else may fear to tread.
The dog acts as faithful friend and protector, but the dog can't always prevent The Fool from walking into disaster.
The tools The Fool needs are in the knapsack, but is it enough for the journey? The Fool doesn't plan ahead, but he may be surprised at what he finds to help him on his way.
