The Fool
Air · the breath before the first step
Upright
beginning · trust · open road
A start taken before it can be justified. The Fool moves because standing still has become the greater risk, and what looks like naivety is really willingness.
Reversed
recklessness · stalling · no plan
Either the leap is being made blind, with nothing in the pack that the road demands, or it is being endlessly rehearsed and never taken.
Why this astrology
The trumps were attributed one by one to a planet, a sign or an element, which is how The Fool came to carry air · the breath before the first step. Read it as that force arriving in the question.
