My most recent tattoo is of the Fool from the Tarot.  I am not really into the Tarot, but as i was researching the Fool for the band I became infatuated with its meaning and how I felt it described me and my approach to life. 

Here is a brief section from Wikipedia that explains it best. 

The Fool is the spirit in search of experience. He represents the mystical cleverness bereft of reason within us, the childlike ability to tune into the inner workings of the world. The sun shining behind him represents the divine nature of the Fool’s wisdom and exuberance, holy madness or ‘crazy wisdom’. On his back are all the possessions he might need. In his hand there is a flower, showing his appreciation of beauty. He is frequently accompanied by a dog, sometimes seen as his animal desires, sometimes as the call of the “real world”, nipping at his heels and distracting him. He is seemingly unconcerned that he is standing on a precipice, apparently about to step off.  The Fool is both the beginning and the end, neither and otherwise, betwixt and between, liminal.
The number 0 is a perfect significator for the Fool, as it can become anything when he reaches his destination.

Another interpretation is that of taking action where the circumstances are unknown, confronting one’s fears, taking risks, and so on.  The Fool is often shown walking off a cliff. This raises the question, is the fool making a mistake or is he taking a leap of faith?
