The journey of The Fool has been retold countless times, given. But why is there no story of the reversed trumps? So, to try and develop my intuiton of the cards (I'm new to Tarot), I'm going to write the story of Reversed journey. The untold but equally important one in which the Magician is revealed as a trickster, the Fool's fear of the future preventing him from hearing the wisdom of The Star, and the day The Sun rises being empty and worthless. I'll start posting the story within a few hours. Hope you enjoy! Artemis

I'm very much looking forward to reading your story. So, don't let my dopey comment dissuade you... (but sometimes these things just have to come out... :| ) The Fool, reversed - he sits at home watching T.V., hence no journey to write about.

Well, the reversed Fool could be a slob couch-potato.... Or maybe he was forced out onto his journey, and he's just a refugee without a home, and he hasn't got any hope, and he's a miserable cynic. *shrug* My two cents.

Maybe that dog did indeed push him over the cliff out onto his journey; he didn't leap... Elle
