The Clown is equal to the Fool in other decks. He is Heyokah, the Coyote, the Trickster. The Clown/Coyote does so many silly things. He has painted his face so that he is wearing a smile and his tears are not falling from his eyes but over his head. He is backwards in so much that he is doing. Is he really jumping off that cliff or only teasing?
These are his lessons. What are we doing that is backwards? Do we have our priorities straight or perhaps they are to straight and the Clown is here to make us laugh at ourselves. Do we need to take some time to have fun because we are taking ourselves to seriously?
The Clown is free to do any silly thing he wants. But so are we! We are the ones who make the choices for ourselves. Clown says take a chance, have some fun,put your clothes on backwards and dance.
If you do reversals, which I don't, Clown could be saying you are to to free. You aren't aware of what is going on around you. The dog howling in the background of this card could be doing so over your putting your foot into it, yet again. Because clown does just that. He will step off the cliff, climb back up and step off again just to make sure that was really what happened to him the first time. One has to double check these things you know!
