The Fool and the World are the ultimate dyad of the Tarot. They in a way, represent the most fundamental level of the entire system. In its essence, the Tarot speaks of encounters of consciousness - the fool - with eternity - the world. That is all it is. Of course there are many varieties of encounter - as the other trumps will attest - but this is at the core of each and every one. The world and the fool are the tacit companions of every card, every reading, every situation imaginable and unimaginable. This is it. This is the secret of the Tarot. Everything else is theatre.
