There are no two more different cards in a deck than The Fool, the first card of the tarot, and The World, the last card.
The fool is seemingly reckless, hasty, travels in unfamiliar territories and is ready to jump off a cliff.
Some would say he is a fool.
On the other hand, the "world" hovers protected and safe within a tight and perfect circle, and does not move.
She is smart and experienced.
She has seen it all.
However, the fool is not a fool.
He simply puts aside the knowledge he has gained and agrees to experiment, devoting himself to the adventure - and "Miss World", well, needs to shake all the boundaries that surround her.
To free herself from the restrictions and definitions - and break forward into a new experience.
The tension between the world and the fool, between the last card in the pack and the first - is one of the most powerful energy points in the tarot cards.
why?
Because it's one thing to jump into the unknown just like that straight from the beginning without previous attempts, memories and disappointments - and another thing entirely to gather courage and jump from a safe and familiar point after we've already gained experience and knowledge.
But this is what we are tasked with doing over and over again!
And especially when a new year begins and a new circle has to open.
Also, every time a divorced person gives a chance to new love, even though he already has children, even though the house he worked hard to build - is destroyed, he is actually ready to break the limits of the world card and come with all the knowledge he gained in the old relationship - to the new relationship, in the spirit of the fool - With renewed innocence and a willingness to trust.
Every time a woman is ready to crack a brand new career, despite 30 years of experience in another profession, she is ready to open the borders of her "world" and let the foolish spirit break out of her with new things to learn and a willingness to start from scratch.
However, she is not really starting from scratch.
It is at two points at the same time - in totality and in the beginning together.
The energy between the two cards is the energy of our rebirth - and of the new year that excites us.
This is the place where we keep who we are, all that we have acquired, but surrender to a new beginning and all that it implies and find ourselves in a dual and magical place: knowing and not knowing, a perfect place of imperfection.

Dipping a candle in honey
In the new year we usually eat an apple with honey, but there is a magical magic shop in New York, enchantments, where - regardless of Rosh Hashanah, you
dip a candle in honey.
Why?
Because it's part of their candle rituals.
In this store, everyone chooses a goal they want to achieve or bring to their life: love, health, protection from negative energy, economic growth and more.
In the store, they draw symbols and decorations for him on the candle that are connected to his purpose - they engrave on the candle with a carving device.
They place stunning and glittering oils on it and at the end they place the candle ready to be lit with a little honey at the bottom, so that the summoning will be sweet!
In addition, a person is allowed to take some honey himself - to connect with the magic.

So do you like it too?
My student often does this to herself.
You are invited to think in the spirit of the world about three things that you completed this year - and three new things that you want to strengthen this year in the spirit of the fool - and engrave on them symbols or even just the first letter that represents those elements: Z for relationship, A for love, Sat for improving health, etc. You can breathe deeply
and
concentrate both on the things we are grateful for and on the new things we want to summon. You can take your time and think about each thing separately.
Then you can put a drop of honey at the bottom of the candle. My student also adds essential oil and glitter - but this is definitely permission. Before Lighting it is possible to wish ourselves a happy new year and taste some honey ourselves to connect with the ceremony. Let the candle burn until the end or until we feel we have had enough.
We wish you and all of us a lovely year - a year of real magic.
