Leans yes. Yes-or-no readings are a rough guide; the cards' story matters more than the verdict.
If a card is reversed
Reversed, the The Fool reads as: hesitation or recklessness. You may be holding back from a new start, or rushing in without looking where you step. Reversed, the The Magician reads as: scattered energy or untapped talent. Check whether your gifts are being used, or whether someone's words are smoother than their deeds. A reversal softens, delays or turns the pair's message inward.
