the story:

In a lot of ways The Fool, as The Aspirant, is a baby - still in utero, even, incubating and awaiting the perfect moment for emerging into this world. The Aspirant is on their quest for self-knowledge, and by the time they reach Key 22: The Initiate, they have acquired a great deal of experience and moved into a certain level of mastery. Key 0 appears to open into a complex path when we consider the potential and possibilities, but this signature, by virtue of its 0 vibration and other elements, is one that affords us an emptiness within which to learn, grow, and create. The Aspirant is the key for those who are both student and teacher, who keep trust and wonder alive, able to make graceful contact with the simple wisdom of each moment. This key is formulated with herbs that stimulate intuition while simultaneously awakening artistic abilities — these sorts of medicines are perfect for the journey of The Aspirant, otherwise known as The Fool, for they provide clear vision and the skill needed to manifest it. There are several imbalances indicated as necessitating a dose of this medicine: unclear/foglike perception and perspective, coldness, hyperactivity, restlessness, and distrust, for instance. Schizandra is one the main guiding accomplices in this formula — being considered the ‘five flavors berry’ and working within the body to target the main energetic meridians, this one enables a recalibration of the entire energetic system, promoting the ‘reset’ reminiscent of the space one finds themselves in with this key. Schizandra is particularly suited as a tonic known for aiding one in adapting to stressful situations and ever-changing circumstances that one encounters within this journey. Reishi mushroom is another which is revered for their qualities of support and rejuvenation. Monks and those of the priest collective have regarded this one to be ideal for elevating the spiritual essence and activating mental focus and discipline. Because The Aspirant has quite a journey ahead of them, herbs like Reishi and Schizandra can bring relief from fatigue, all the while providing a wide array of healing benefits. Moringa is added to further the power of endurance and resilience that this tincture carries within it. Moringa is loaded with nutrients — from Vitamin A, C, E to Potassium, Magnesium, and other keys minerals. Moringa is one that brings nourishment into the body, making them a vital accomplice in any voyage of development, spiritual, emotional, mental, and/or physical. This plant is a great source of antioxidants, helping to fight free radicals caused by oxidative stress. The combination of Reishi, Schizandra, and Moringa is promising in its protective powers, and thus give us a solid combination of the type of reinforcement that The Fool needs on their journey. To bring in the receptivity and mental balance needed by this key to ensure a result contrary to folly and failure, Oatstraw and Maypop are included for their capacity to nourish the nervous system while also bringing calm to cognitive processes, allowing us to make clearer connections and direct and true conclusions. These allies, in combination, offer us a thorough concoction to take as we aspire to be more fully in tune with ourselves and further share of the wealth contained within. Key 0 is a tool for harmonizing and realizing.
