Okay, I feel it right to start with the quote from the pamphlet that was included with the pack.
"I began to stop caring for man and I looked at you with veiled eyes. I scanned your soul, even if I could't see your face."- The irrational side
Well, I find a bit of this quote confusing. The beginning- "I began to stop caring for man..."- makes sense because The fool is a card where someone is leaving, and I know from my experiences as well as from other people I know is that sometimes we want to leave when man alone is not enough for us anymore and we need to journey on to find... whatever.
The fool card is obviously very important in this deck because it is on the back of every card.
The man in this deck though looks as if he has seen the harder side of man. He's been through alot and there is nothing left to help him. He must move on. His face is puzzling. Is he anrgy? Is he sad? Is is stupid and confused? Who knows? But for whatever reason, he is leaving... perhaps not as care free as the fool in other decks.
He is in a way like the philosopher Diogenes- who thought he could learn better from the world by ridding himself of worldly possessions. IN this case, the fool seems to take on the persona more commonly held by the Hermit. Therefore connecting our story elsewhere.
