Description
The Fall card depicts a dramatic scene where the Jester (Fool) has replaced the king, not in the traditional throne but perched on the armrest, symbolizing the downfall of the ego. The Jester's grin and the mirror he holds up to the stunned deposed king emphasize the humiliation and self-reflection imposed by this reversal of fortune. A small bird ascending on the right symbolizes the hope for transformation and freedom, suggesting that even in loss, there is potential for rebirth and growth.
