The Joker of Clubs Card

The Suit of Clubs is associated with primal energy, spirituality, inspiration, determination, strength, intuition, creativity, ambition and expansion, original thought and the seeds through which life springs forth. Clubs deal with the spiritual level of consciousness and mirror what is important to you at the core of your being. Clubs are also indicative of all things that you do during the day to keep you busy, be it working at the office, home or the great outdoors. Clubs have to do with movement, action and initiatives and the launching of new ideas. They may be indicative of a never-ending ‘Ideas List’ or ‘To Do List’, whereby the client has many projects on the go to keep them busy. The negative aspects of the Suit of Clubs include illusion, egotistical behavior, impulsiveness, a lack of direction or purpose, or feeling meaningless.

Timing: When looking for time sensitive answers, Clubs generally means very fast – a matter of hours to days.

As people, Jokers often represent young, energetic people who are at the very beginning of their personal journey. They are still developing a sense of self but they approach new challenges with fervent energy and excitement. Jokers look forward to the opportunity of learning and practicing new skills. On a physical level, Jokers can represent young children through to young adults. However, Jokers can also represent those who are young at heart or who are discovering a new aspect of themselves. As events, Jokers are often seen as messengers and come to you with a new opportunity or an invitation. Jokers encourage you to go for it and give you the green light for a new project or initiative. Jokers symbolize a new stage in life.

With The Joker of Clubs reversed, it tends to emphasize the more negative character traits of the upright version. He tends to show up when your mind is filled with one great idea after another and are unable to progress beyond the beginning planning stages.

As painful as it is, it is a good way of telling you that you should venture into other meaningful projects and avoid wasting time.
