From the Badgers Forest Tarot, the Fool; from the Gemstone Oracle, Labradorite:
I do believe women have different ways of taking risks, of ruminating a bit more before they jump to conclusions. ―Christine Lagarde
I'm not sure that gender has anything to do with slowing our roll before taking a risk. I'm inclined to think it is more the hard knocks we all experience. This little squirrel needs to figure out if there are more nuts available that won't be as dangerous to gather - there thoughtful risks and idiotic ones. While carefree and trusting, the Fool often must learn that ignorance is not bliss. The flash of Labradorite warns that we need to seek information about a situation before diving in. Dr. Arthur L. Costa and Dr. Bena Kallick, co-founders of the Institute for Habits of Mind, explain that while flexible people are compelled to go beyond established limits, they are not impulsive: "Their risks are educated. They draw on past knowledge, are thoughtful about consequences and have a well-trained sense of what is appropriate. They know that all risks are not worth taking!"
