The Fool's Journey

Once upon a time, a Fool did stand,

On the edge of a cliff, bag in hand.

With ambition and adventure in his heart,

His quest was about to start.

First, he met the Magician, wise and true,

Who taught him how to make dreams come through.

With tools in hand, he learned to manifest,

His destiny, his future, he could now invest.

Next, the High Priestess, keeper of knowledge,

Showed him the power of intuition and the subconscious.

Logic alone could not explain it all,

He learned to trust his inner call.

In the Empress's garden, he found delight,

Nurturing, creativity, and abundance in sight.

He reveled in the beauty of life's creation,

And embraced nature's endless fascination.

Then came the Emperor, symbol of order and might,

Teaching the Fool the value of discipline and right.

With rules and structure, a stable world could be built,

And the Fool understood the power of his own will.

The Hierophant shared wisdom and tradition,

Guiding the Fool with his divine intuition.

Sometimes, established paths bring enlightenment,

And following them can lead to fulfillment.

At the Lovers, he experienced love's embrace,

Unity and choices, both joy and grace.

He learned the wonder of human connection,

And the pain of separation's reflection.

The Chariot brought triumph and will,

With perseverance and control, he could fulfill.

Steering his life towards the desired direction,

The Fool embraced victory with determination.

Strength taught him power from within,

Resilience and kindness, the true way to win.

Taming his inner beast with courage and care,

The Fool found strength beyond compare.

The Hermit guided him to introspection's door,

Solitude, self-reflection, and seeking wisdom's core.

In silence and stillness, he found his own light,

And discovered the virtue of inner sight.

The Wheel of Fortune turned and spun,

Life's cycles, both bright and dim, begun.

Change was inevitable, both good and bad,

And the Fool learned to adapt and be glad.

Justice showed him fairness and truth,

Consequences for actions, both old and youth.

Equilibrium and balance, the scales must weigh,

And the Fool understood the importance of this way.

Facing the Hanged Man, he learned to surrender,

To let go and find clarity, to suspend and remember.

Sometimes, a different angle was needed to see,

The truth and the path to set him free.

Death brought transformation, an end and a start,

Growth and rebirth, a change in his heart.

Endings were necessary for new beginnings to bloom,

And the Fool embraced this cycle of doom.

With Temperance, he found balance and peace,

Combining opposites, finding harmony's release.

In moderation and measure, he discovered,

The key to a life well-structured.

The Devil confronted his shadow side,

Fears, obsessions, and attachments he couldn't hide.

Breaking free from limitations, he learned,

To embrace his true self, and his soul yearned.

The Tower brought upheaval and strife,

Drastic change to clear the path for a better life.

Though chaos ensued, the Fool understood,

That sometimes, destruction was for his own good.

The Star brought hope and faith anew,

Guidance and light, shining through.

After the storm, there was always a way,

To find renewal and a brighter day.

The Moon revealed fears and anxieties deep,

Illusions and confusion, but also dreams to keep.

Intuition guided him through the night,

And the Fool learned to trust his inner sight.

The Sun rose, bringing joy and success,

Invigorated and full of life's caress.

He basked in the light, feeling its embrace,

And embraced the warmth of life's grace.

At Judgement, he reflected on his past,

Accounting for his actions, peace at last.

Awakening and reborn, he moved on,

Ready for a new chapter, his old self gone.

Finally, he reached the World, complete,

A wise man, with lessons learned and sweet.

The Fool had come full circle, it seemed,

With satisfaction and wisdom, his soul beamed.

And so, the Fool's journey, our journey too,

Continued on, as he prepared to start anew.

Carrying the wisdom of his experiences past,

Into the next cycle of life, he would cast.
