The Foolfor Leo
"You already know the answer. You're just scared."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A youth on the start of a journey stands precariously on a cliff, but remains free of anxieties. Holding a rose, a small pack, and guided by a dog. They are unperturbed (and perhaps excited) by the cliff they stand on or the trials they will soon face.
Look closer.
Take a leap of faith to start something new and exciting. The past guides us through our inner voice and tells us to find a balance between the known and unknown. Remember, anxiety and excitement can feel the same in the body. Remain open to new experiences and trust in your own wild heart
Something is blocking you from your new adventure: perhaps fear of the unknown, lack of trust in your own intuition, or a true sense of needing more information before moving forward.
The fool card in earlier version of the deck was called 'the jester', evoking the idea of a court jester who can speak truth to a powerful king or someone who follows their own path. From the card imagery we can see that this card also references the Greek trickster god Hermes (notice the gold boots, the wand and the running position).

The Fool for Leo
The Creator
Leo is a Fire fixed sign ruled by Sun, whose natural subject is creativity, romance, play, being seen doing the thing. Uranus works on a longer clock than Sun-ruled Leo is used to. Whatever this is, it will not resolve on Leo's preferred timeline. Leo is fixed: it holds on, and this is a card about beginning, so the resistance shows up before anything has even been asked. Upright, nothing has started yet, and that is the actual content of the card rather than a delay in it.
