SHOW NOTES — Bonus Episode: The Fool’s Journey (Backstory)
Welcome to a special bonus drop of This Ain’t Fortune Telling. Today I’m giving you the backstory that every tarot learner needs to know before we begin card-by-card next week.
This is the Fool’s Journey — the true narrative the Major Arcana is telling.
This is how tarot mirrors a human life.
From innocence — to initiation — to power — to ego — to collapse — to death — to rebirth — and finally: integration.
We walk through the Fool’s key milestones, the teachers he meets, the tests he fails, the illusions he falls for, and the awakenings that reshape him.
By the end of this episode, you’ll have the actual map that makes the whole thing make sense.
So next week, when we begin with Card Zero — The Fool — you’ll already know the shape of the road he’s stepping onto.
Today: no predictions, no spreads — just context. And context is queen.
