The Path of the Fool

in occult •  6 years ago 
You are a fool if you think these things are instantaneous. Your mind has been conditioned to easy achievement and you expect everything right here and now!
The best things in life take time. Nobody mentioned where this was easy. You will get exactly what you put your mind to.

Just Focus

But don't stagnate and give up. Seek help; Journal; Learn; Flow: Grow; Breathe

The Path of the Fool in the Crowley Thoth Tarot represents a journey of self illumination using a 22 based system or more accurately a journey of the 22 character Hebrew alphabet. Each card is a picture, a picture is a thousand words and these words represent a possible moment, a chance to change something, an awareness to something unconscious that can become illuminated

The Fool is both that last and first card, it is the ending of a cycle and the beginning of a new cycle. The fool comes to the table of a new beginning, it is where it is and it knows what it knows but this adventure is new and it will take the fool to many unexpected situations each unique to its perception and experience. This is the path of life, each day is a new day and we come across many opportunities to change our direction. It ends having accomplished the achievements of the previous cycle and takes that knowledge with them on their next journey through the 22 card trumps of life

The 22 in numerology represents the master builder, it has dual traits of positivity and negativity. It can build anything it dreams if it sets its mind to it. It doesn't yet know what to do or how to do it but with awareness it can use what it is available to it to make it so.

Maynard James Keenan sings in lyrics from Puscifer's Momma Sed

Listen up son of mine, momma got something to tell you all about growing pains.
life will pound away, where the light don't shine son. take it like a man.

life can be tough if you let it; it will show you what you need to do to heal yourself and it will keep coming up in different circumstance until you do and it may even come again to really make sure you have learned and applied your lessons. it is a process of illumination; adding a light to the darkness, the areas of ourselves we have neglected, a chance to change

To facilitate any kind of positive change in our lives we need to be present to know where our next choices may take us. Our current experience of the ever changing reality may be of pain but everything has an effect to a cause; it ends as the onus of the self to positively influence any outcome of the current paradigm.

So remember

change has come, keep your dignity, take the high road take it like a man
