As we step into February, my card for the energy of the month is The Fool. In tarot, The Fool is the very first card—a symbol of new beginnings, fresh starts, and limitless potential. Often seen as the main character of the tarot deck, The Fool embarks on an adventure where each card in the Major Arcana represents a chapter in their journey. It’s a powerful reminder to face the unknown with a sense of curiosity and an open heart.

The Fool, like anyone starting a new adventure, approaches the journey with wonder and anticipation. While fear may linger at the edges, The Fool doesn’t give it power.

By stepping forward boldly, The Fool is able to walk without fear.

In January, the Knight of Wands ignited a fiery surge of drive and passion—a bold call to act with courage and embrace change. It set the tone for forward momentum, lighting the first spark of the year. As February begins, The Fool takes over, shifting the focus from action to exploration. Now, it’s about trusting that the steps I’ve taken will lead me somewhere meaningful, even if the destination isn’t yet clear.

With The Fool as my guide, February feels like an open invitation to embrace life with childlike wonder. This month, I’m choosing to lean into the unknown—not with fear, but with trust. Maybe that means exploring a new creative project, saying yes to an invitation that feels a little out of my comfort zone, or giving myself permission to dream boldly—without needing all the answers upfront.

In my life, The Fool reminds me that every step is an act of creation, transforming energy, feelings, and vision into something meaningful. It’s a call to embrace the process—whether it’s trying something new, taking creative risks, or simply being present in the unfolding journey of becoming who I’m meant to be.

The Fool also carries a message of trusting the unknown, reminding us that we don’t always need a detailed map to move forward. Some of the greatest opportunities arise when we take a leap of faith, allowing the universe to guide us. This card encourages openness to synchronicities and unexpected opportunities, knowing they often lead to growth and expansion.

At its core, The Fool represents the ecstatic adventure of discovering and embracing the essence of who we truly are: whole, healthy, and unburdened by fear. It calls us to give birth to new ways of being, rooted in courage, wonder, and anticipation. The Fool’s energy reminds me that life is meant to be explored with a sense of playfulness, joy, and mindfulness.

This is a card of radical authenticity, urging me to step into my truth and live boldly as myself, without hesitation or doubt.

With The Fool as my guide, February becomes a month of exploration, renewal, and the joy of embracing life’s limitless possibilities. So often, I find myself feeling as though I need permission to deviate from my path—from expectations, routines, and responsibilities I’ve held onto tightly.

The Fool is here to remind me that I already have that permission.

It’s an invitation to start anew with trust, excitement, and freedom—to embrace the next chapter of life with less fear, more self-belief, and an unwavering sense of wonder.

My goal for February is to let The Fool’s energy guide me toward bold choices and new experiences.

This could mean saying yes to an opportunity I’d usually hesitate to take or allowing myself to daydream about possibilities without overthinking the “how.”

Above all, this month is about rediscovering the simple, profound joy of being—bold, curious, and unapologetically myself.

Always,
