Free Daily Tarotscope -- July 1, 2014 -- the Fool

The Fool

Mercury stations today after the last few weeks being retrograde… meaning you are out of the woods but not quite with communication difficulties.

As can be seen from this version of the Fool it is as if you are wanting to go forward but not quite sure what your next step should be and there is a sense of something holding you back… as if you know your next step may be perilous but you are not quite sure why.

Not that much will stop you once you set your mind to doing something however it is not about setting your mind to doing something that is the problem here it is your mind wandering and becoming lost in what you think you want that may be your downfall.

The Fool is the first card of the major arcana and in this version the moon is new showing a new path for you or a totally different direction you may take. It’s not clear whether you are already on this course or if you are about to launch onto it as the bird doesn’t show if it is “taking off” or “falling down”.

Whichever it may be there is a sense of adventure, high spirits and lack of concerns that anything can go wrong whilst you embrace life to the fullest and throw yourself in to (or out of) your next adventure.

Unlike the bird in this card who has her eye on the moon and not the lighthouse which could be the beacon in the midst of chaos that saves her.

They say that Fools rush in where angels fear to tread, and no where is that more evident than it is with this card. It’s all well and good to have dreams and to put these forward but you also need a solid plan. If you rush into something today without a solid plan you may find yourself being pulled back with a short, sharp shock of reality… or as this image shows you may fall so hard that you come up in tatters.

Allow for Mercury to settle down so that you are not putting yourself in harm’s way of rushing into decisions without thinking them through thoroughly. There are plenty of pie in the sky dreams around you today and this is all well and good but you really need to keep your two feet planted firmly on the ground.
