When You Stand Up to the Sun Deanna Amodeo

...the Fool always smiles, because The Fool always knows; life is but an adventure...




The Fool tarot card represents the beginning of one's journey, someone who is willing and open to new experiences and new lessons in life. When You Stand Up to the Sun is a memoir of cultural, emotional and spiritual growth, in which Deanna Amodeo embarks on an inner and outer journey that takes us around the world with her, where she meets four men who each represent a different element-Air, Water, Earth, and Fire.




When You Stand Up to the Sun is a lush, magical telling of Amodeo's journey and the lessons that she learned about life, relationships, and spirituality.
