The Fool and His Dog

The Fool by Arthur Edward Waite

I thought "The Fool" tarot card would be appropriate for today. According to Aecletic Tarot, "'The Fool' is the card of infinite possibilities. The bag on the staff indicates that he has all he needs to do or be anything he wants, he has only to stop and unpack. He is on his way to a brand new beginning.

But the card carries a little bark of warning as well. While it's wonderful to be enthralled with all around you, excited by all life has to offer, you still need to watch your step, lest you fall and end up looking the fool."

Enjoy your Leap Day, but heed your dog.
