Mary El Tarot - The Fool

[Le Fanu]

The first thing I thought when I saw the gorgeous butterfly shoes were a kind of transmuted hermés winged shoes. The wings become the shoe. Fabulous card. Up there with the very best of them. Amazes me that someone can do something so new with this card. The very personification of gay abandon and exhilaration.

So I am just starting have just rec'd my deck ~ and what better place to start than with the fool. I have not jumped ahead and I am sure you all have already noticed that the symbol in the bottom right had corner is repeated on every single card.

"Is that the alchemical symbol for water in the lower right corner?" from Jet Luna

I am not so sure. Looking up triangle inside a circle, I came upon the gay rights Pink Triangle inside a green circle (wikipedia) as a homophobic free area. But it is also mentioned in alchemy. So now I will go read the companion book and see if she explains!
