Jupiter Caelus
Some visual notes:
"Grapes represent fertility, sweetness, and the basis of ecstasy. This ecstasy is shown by the stem of the grapes developing into rainbow-hued spirals" - Book of Thoth
I've noticed the stem of the grapes which connects around the Fool's neck bears a convincing resemblance to a crook. Some goads I have seen look almost the same as the crook if the extended point is removed. Although it could also be said the extension is actually the spiral, which meets up with this stem on the oppsite side of the neck.
In any event, this would link up with with the letter Lamed: Ox Goad.
If the grapes have such a hold over a part where the body can most easily be led, I wonder if there's a connection between the selected mnemonics of The Fool: "Truth, laughter, lust: Wine's Holy Fool", and Adjustment: "Wild is the dance; its balance is exact". The connecting word here being Wild; an inevitable by-product of indulging in Wine. But Wine is the noble drink, this isn't degenerate teens on a drunken rampage, it's of the the higher realms of the Mind; the closest the Mind can attain to the Æther. A Wild stimulation where you can "Know Naught!", which I have found while sipping away at a glass of red can lead you to knowing quite a lot!
Further, the Gold of the Air is filled with tiny white Thetas Θ. Another reference to Adjustment, who holds the sword which is also the Ace of Swords; written upon is Θέλημα.
