May 9th, 2013 – Thursday – The Fool

Good morning fools… how are you all doing?  The readership grows!  More and more people come to listen to this wise fool blather daily about what the Tarot Cards mean for them in their life that day… You’ll notice that along with the information imparted to you my kind friends there is also a bit of a discussion on opening and how to live more heart centered.

That’s a big assumption on my part:  That the patterns and flow of energy are cruising you along toward a more and more open loving life.  That the ultimate meaning of these cards are sign posts along the way toward love.   I’m not talking romantic love, or emotional love, or new age love.  I’m talking about oneness.

That’s how I define love.  When you realize we are all one being projected on the movie screen of life.  Ultimately we are using the Tarot cards to ‘dissolve’ our differences and merge more fully from the appearing characters we play into the under lying reality of one.

But I’m assuming here… you might not want that…. You might just to know whether today is going to be shitty or not…

And that’s fine too.

Today we pulled the Fool Card Reversed, and that means there is CHANGE out there, new and wonderful magical change and you are being warned to be careful: You might resist that change out of fear. 

There… for those who like it short, that’s all you need to know.  But for those who like it long… Well there isn't really anything more to say, is there?  For me I asked myself what ‘change’ is it that I’m resisting.  That’s a good question.  As complexly written character on the screen of life in this Matrix, there are a lot of changes coming my way on a daily basis.  Some are changes I want, some are changes I don’t.  So what specifically is this change that is coming that I’m resisting out of fear?

The answer from the cards is that whatever it is… we need to accept it.  This is good change. It probably doesn't look like good change though… or why would we get this card?  That suggests the change might not be what we were initially hoping for.  Seeing as how we got the Queen of Swords yesterday, and that means we were finally starting to really see clearly what was true and wasn't... this upside down Fool makes a lot of sense.  Seeing clearly we have a lot of freedom, even though we suffered some pain by seeing this truth.  Things weren't what we thought they were… were they?

And today clear seeing leads to new journeys, new adventures… new magic. How can it be otherwise?  Once you see clearly, everything else falls into place.  But the only thing that can go wrong is if we resist.  Ah… it feels like it is coming together, doesn't it?  We can feel into that resistant part of our bodies, and that will tell us the change that scares us.

Of course it scares us.  This has been a week of disappointment.  Deep deep disappointment.  This hasn't been a week of joy and happiness.  The things and people we held dear turned out to disappoint us.  And faced it, we accepted with Princess of Wands excitement… and we came to clarity.  This has been a boat load of pain and swirl. 

So what are we going to do?  We are going to jump in the new direction of freedom our disappointment has revealed to us.  And it’s probably going to be a bit scary… hence… the Reverse Fool… hence… our resistance to change.

One hit I’m getting, putting on my psychic hat, is this: do not underestimate your resistance to change.  It could be bigger and deeper and more malicious than you think.  Be vigilant today.  Breathe open.  Let the change happen.  Step into your fear.
