The Fool, a young person, who's gender is hard to tell, is approaching the edge of a cliff as if to take flight. The sleeves on his shirt seem to appear as wings. He has a staff in his hand with a bag tied to it. The staff is representative of guidance, wisdom, direction. The bag carry's his belonging and often is referred to as the baggage of the past. The mountains behind him are symbolic of challenges and triumphs - he's in the after glow of yesterday and is looking forward to the new challenges ahead. What is unknown is what lies ahead of the fool. Is it a drop off into the abyss or is there a safe landing spot below. We don't know and many times life is that way - we don't know what lies ahead and sometimes we just have to "go for it!" and take flight, for better or for worse.
