Upright meaning
A vulnerable, natural state without cunning or prejudice — often in the image of a child. A call to renew your spirit, to meet things with an open, guileless mind — like the "uncarved block" of Taoism. A return to reasonless joy and purity. Depending on the spread, it can also be a warning. Akin to The Fool in Tarot.
Reversed meaning
In reversed position
Innocence has been taken from you — inner-child work is needed. Speak to yourself as to a child: would you tell a little one that all that happened is their fault, that they are not good enough, or unworthy of love? Be gentle with yourself; give your inner child back its hope, its laughter, and its smile.
