0 is the first number in the sequence of non-negative integers. To place it anywhere else in the sequence is wacky unless one is using modular arithmetic. Yes, 22 = 0 modulo 22, but although modular arithmetic is used in occultism, it is usually of the mod 9 variety which utilizes the Arabic positional system. Example: 14 = 5, which is true modulo 9 since the remainder upon division of 14 by 9 is 5. The same reduction mod 9 can be done by (successive) subtraction of the number 9.
It were better for the Fool to be numberless if it be placed in position 22. Perhaps Roman numerals have a valid use in Tarot after all, in spite of the objections of the mod 9 numerologists.
