Birth Cards: Jokers There is not much to know about the Joker. We have given basically no information for those born on December 31st. That date is the birthday card of the Joker. We know little about the card. There are no Life Path Cards or Yearly Spreads to give us any clue. The Joker is capable of being any card that he or she wants to be. Jokers were Court Jesters in past times. They took the throne on Fool’s Day every year and impersonated the King. The Joker’s day is December 31st when we celebrate the New Year. That was a time for putting away the serious part of life. The Joker made fun of everyone in order to lighten him or her up a little. He was excellent at impersonation. This ability to take on a role is critical to the Joker’s personality. Because we do not know which card they are, we cannot make any definite statements pertaining to them. Perhaps a Joker can be thought of as a ‘Jack of all Jacks.’ That means they are creative as well as perhaps immature but independent. The Joker is part of the theater. Of course dishonesty is also possible. They probably want to be free and independent. Spirituality is part of Jokers in the Tarot deck. There is the Fool Card with the number 0. Beyond this the Joker is a mystery. The Joker is the master of disguise in the deck. It is the entertainer who reminds us that life is just a stage. It is the zero, without which there would be no meaningful number system at all. But, most of all, the Joker is a mystery. .

All Manufacturing Rights Reserved. 2 For Becky One Final Time 3 IMPROVED INVISIBLE DECK How To Make It Yourself Devin Knight The rough-and-smooth principle has been around since the early 1920s. The Invisible Deck was invented by Joe Berg in 1936 and was first released as the Ultra-Mental Deck. My deck is an improvement because it deals with two issues. First, with this deck you can show the backs. I am not the first to think of doing this; Joe Berg, Aldini, Jochen Zmeck, Alan Shaxon, Cody Fisher, and Lawrence Turner have all developed methods. Second, a lot of magicians have trouble handling the Invisible Deck. They have trouble separating the cards, or have trouble with too many reversed cards showing up in the spread. The cards are either too snug or too loose. My deck deals with these problems and makes doing the Invisible Deck almost foolproof. Although others have thought of ways to show the backs, I think I am the first to solve the issues of easily separating the cards and not having unwanted reversed cards show. How The Deck Is Made: This deck is not made like the standard Invisible Deck because the full backs of the cards are not roughed. Only the lower halves of the backs of odd-value cards are roughed.

Card Parlour Dartstm
CARD PARLOUR DARTS TM by Charles M. Hanes Combine the skill of darts with the strategy of poker! GENERAL Card Parlour Darts TM is designed and played on a regulation dart board. Traditional dart games and Card Parlour Darts TM can be played with this board. General rules of darts apply to Card Parlour Darts TM . Game rules are exciting and new for both the experienced dart player and the recreational family players at home. Player scoring and strategy are the unique aspects of this dart board game. Players may play with darts only, or introduce playing with poker cards as way of building poker hands. Using a standard deck of poker cards and dealing players two cards each to start the game is a highly desired way to play the game. Children under the age of 12 should not play without adult supervision. UNIQUE BOARD LAYOUT FOR CARD PARLOUR DARTS TM Center circle “J” is the joker. Joker is considered a wild card. It may be wild for all cards or good only for aces, straights, and flushes as in regular poker. Players decide before the start of the game how the joker will be used as a wild card. Joker can be used only once per player turn. The “F” area equals “Fold.” If players hit this area, their turn is over and no points are awarded. This area can also be used as one free throw if hit; or, in some games, will not count or be a penalty. DARTS AND FLIGHTS Steel-tip darts are used on our high-quality, East African sisal tournament dart board.
