Artists Personal Symbol

Joker

The Joker is in the process of doing a handstand, he can turn anything upside-down.

Card Description

On a lusciously green leaf, we see a bug in the sun. His big antennas could be the horns of the springtime zodiac signs.

Card Interpretation

Taken alone, this Joker means new beginnings, growth potential, energy, renewal after periods of sleep or hibernation, but, on the other hand, the bug being a rather unpleasant bug, he can also bug (puns intended) - meaning plans might take a surprising turn. Follow the flow rather than being stubborn! He can give an energy boost to other cards, but he also can alter the meanings / directions of the surrounding cards. He'll support the cards directly above him and push on the cards to his right in the spread; but he might block those under him or to his left...
