The Fool Tarot Meditation

Finding a comfortable place to sit or lie down.

You could soften your gaze or close your eyes.

And start to find just the gentle fluctuations of your breath.

Notice your inhale and your exhale.

Maybe see which one is longer.

Maybe notice the pause between your breath,

Between the inhale and exhale.

Gently place one hand or attention on your abdomen and one hand or your attention on your chest.

And as you inhale,

Feel everything expand forward and to the side,

As though your hands were moving away from each other,

Although they're staying on your body.

And then as you exhale,

Feel everything pull back in towards the center.

Inhale,

Feel everything expand in all directions.

And exhale,

Feel everything pull back in towards the center.

This is a meditation on the tarot card,

The Fool.

The Fool is the person who is going on a new journey.

This is you.

You're beginning a new cycle.

Maybe there's some excitement about what you might learn.

Maybe there's some fear of the unknown.

Maybe those things feel the same.

You have made a choice to expand your awareness beyond what you know in this moment.

So return to your breath.

The affirmation for this card is,

I feel ready to begin a new cycle of learning and growing.

I feel ready to begin a new cycle of learning and growing.

This is a reminder to use your breath as a tool as you learn and grow.

And enjoy the beginning of your new journey.
