Doing the Tarot Favorites February Challenge!! Find the tumblr post here, and the original IG post here
I couldn’t decide on just one, so I have the Fool of the Void Suit from Tarot of the Silicon Dawn, and The Fool from Robotarot.
The Fool is my trump card. Whenever I doubt myself, he decides to pay a visit and let me know that taking a leap is possible. Whenever I do not recognize harm done to me, he is reversed and lets me know I should not remain naive.
The card with a single butterfly is from the Void Suit of Tarot of the Silicon Dawn. I think this could be read in a variety of ways, depending on the way in which it is oriented during a reading. This direction is the most hopeful to me- it look like it is traveling upward into possibility. But in any other direction, it could mean the very same thing- traveling onward, in space where there is no up or down of gravity, no logic- and more endless possibilities.
The card with the robot is, obviously, from the RoboTarot. They have been hit by a bolt of lightening, and while it is a painful experience, it is one that results in knowledge. For better or worse, there is something learned from it. I love that this communicates one of the ideas of the Fool without the usual cliff imagery- it still represents a risk taken in answer to an opportunity. Whether this risk was worth taking, the card can’t say on its own.
Both decks have multiple Fool cards- a welcome addition for me, each with details that give them a unique reading.
