Writing Prompt #137 “The Fool”
Luis Roya
Though it has been done before and maybe even done to death I myself have not done a tarot themed prompt. If you guys are receptive to the concept then we will go through the entire deck alternating with the collage prompt of course. You do not need to mention tarot cards at all in your entries, find a theme, a hook within the meaning of the card itself. You can even create a series if you like.
The first card up in The Fool for a thorough description of the meaning click here
Some themes that immediately come to my mind that you might want consider are
New Beginnings
Life Changes
Impulsive Decisions
Look before you leap (advice from friends)
Taking Risks
Follow the Tao
Wisdom from children
Going against the grain

Oh! Sounds very interesting! How long is this prompt open; 24-hours?
really indefinitely as I will always read, each Sunday I put up a new one so people often take it to mean they’ve got a week
Excellent. Quite a busy time of the year right now, so I hope to get to this one soon. Thanks!
I look forward to it XD
I love the idea. The first sonnet I ever wrote way back in my college days was about reading tarot cards in a cemetery (which my friend and I did after I did a fantasy photo shoot for another project).
I am so happy to hear that XD
Thanks for the great prompt 🙂

I have written a full post about The Fool several years ago. I love to share that post here at mlmm … go to the linking widget of this mlmm post and visit it if you like to read it. Awesome post by the way.
Thank you so much and I have just now went to your blog and read your post, absolutely brilliant Kristjaan. I learned a lot in the way of interpreting the card and the haiku are gorgeous!
