The Fool represents the spirit descended into matter, creating the universe. It is a symbol of the infinite potential that lies within all of us. The Fool is truly innocent, full of promise and freedom, and the pure joy of feeling at one with the universe. The number 0, shaped like an egg, further reinforces the Fool’s ability to take any and all directions. All possibilities are open to him. He represents the start of something, unbound by the past, and having the freedom to explore a boundless future. He does not consider consequences, and doesn’t plan ahead but rather only reacts to what the world brings him. He follows his instincts, like an animal, in step with the natural world. With this animalistic bravery, he also is filled with optimism and belief in his own abilities, fearless and courageous.
