The Fool - Tumblr Posts
The Marvel Cinematic Universe Major Arcana • Part 01
Spider-Man / Peter Parker
Suspended between spiritual and earthly existence, the beautiful Fool is the newly born soul embarking on a bright adventure. Free, clear-hearted, unformed, and open to discover, he needs the counsel of others and would be wise to listen when it is offered. With limitless possibilities before him, he is anxious with seeking and excited for what life is ready to teach. With an open heart, he is led by the inner voice of his true Self.
Iron Man / Tony Stark
As the first guide on the journey to enlightenment, the Magician reveals the raw symbols of the tools from which anything can be created. He advises that all new creations, if they are to succeed, require more than just skill: they require faith in the unknowable. The Magician urges you to speak aloud what it is that you want—to will it into existence, releasing it from the world of mere hopes and thoughts.
The Ancient One
The High Priestess will receive you if your desire is true and you are willing to explore your spirit, free of the need for answers or religion. True wisdom comes from quiet, solitary reflection and trusting your own personal experience of life. The High Priestess is veiled wisdom. She is the space between extremes where ideas and thoughts are uncovered, where they emerge and expand. Those who are brave enough to listen in her stillness will gain the strength and conviction they seek for future actions.
Queen Ramonda
As the ultimate mother, she will nurture you through the unique moments of each particular stage of growth—through the cycles of life, death, rebirth, creation, and destruction. Relax into the safe glow of her embrace, and begin what is there to begin.
Black Panther / T'Challa
A symbol of authority, the Emperor stands powerfully on his earthly foundation and uses his intelligence to create order and structure of his surroundings. Grand achievements are not built overnight; they require a mature coordination of foresight, planning, and bold fearlessness. The Emperor declares that now is the time for exerting control over the situation, defining limits, and showing confidence in one's abilities.
Nick Fury
The Hierophant protects the traditions and offers guidance and practical advice to the community. Though they are not his own, they have all been entrusted to him and he shares them freely with anyone who asks. He is the illuminating link between our most cherished beliefs and the actual living of those beliefs in our daily lives. The Hierophant asks you to honestly assess how well your convictions translate into words and actions. He can be a stubborn teacher, but his counsel is worth considering. It will undoubtedly guide you toward inner harmony.
My preferred tarot desk is the vertigo one that DC comics put out back in the 90s.
X me.
Milli watched. Saw the turquoise-haired woman fleetingly, hat pulled low. Saw her disappearing into darkened corners, speaking with unquiet souls. Sending others out to do her work.
Milli listened. People said things when they were around her that gave clues. Cia was a lord now. Had power and authority. Ran operations in Lion’s Arch with even more force behind her than before.
Milli pondered. Had Cia changed so much? Was that why Jack had put her in charge of the Fleas? Or had she never changed? Was this always who she was, and Milli had been blind to it? Or, worse, had Milli changed and never even noticed.
The thought kept her up nights.
Le fol means The fool on old french.
I've been working on a collage set of Tarot cards this week and I love them.

Based on my placements, I'm more connected with the Fool, the Magician, the Empress, the Emperor, the Hermit, the Temperance, the Sun, the Moon and the World 😂 But my birth cards are the Lovers/Devil (6/15 in sum), and in general I feel like the Empress and the Sun (my venus in 10th and my Leo sun/dominance ☀️)

TWST Tarot Card No. 0 - The Fool
The Fool often symbolises new beginnings, opportunities and potential, but also recklessness and holding yourself back.
I will strive to make this a monthly series, one card of the Major Arcana Tarot Card Deck per month.
To start the year fresh with the very first one, represented by the prefect of the game (here: my Yume OC Yuko, as the game doesn't give you "one" specific prefect)!!
PLEASE NOTE that I am in no way an expert on tarot cards. The characters assigned to each card are based on my personal research on the respective meanings of the card and the corresponding character that I deemed fit. As such, some cards and characters may be interpreted differently.

Are you struggling to pitch your favorite 16-book fantasy series that completely took over your life and changed your brain chemistry? ME TOO! So I made a parody vintage ad to spam friends and family with.
