The Impervious Clown



(or, on the Knight of Wands from Stevee Postman's Cosmic Ta'rot)


"She creates with a fiery uninhibited magic.  

She comes on strong because she has a burning desire to express the vitality she so deeply feels.  Creativity races through her like poetry, music & love course through our blood.  

Thrilling & contagious energy engulfs her in madcapped charm.  

She invites us to co-create w/ her.

Sexuality is her highest expression & a potent metaphor for the creative urge.  
She is the fiery passion sparking new ideas & new relationships.  
Like sexuality, she fuses two into one; many influences into many forms.  


The Knight spits fire, showing us she has brought the dragon of fear and desire back inside where she can use their power to mold and shape, rather than destroy, the world around her.
By working with her fears and desires she has liberated herself.
She designs herself in accord with internal impulses borrowed freely from those around her.
She has overcome the need to conform to others and prefers constructing her own fantasies.  
She is willing to take others' limitations into consideration for she needs people to be her witness
and aims to inspire them.  But, she knows that some people can't or won't be liberated 
no matter what she does, 
so she moves on.


The balance between the totally free and the socially responsible keeps her vital with other people
without offending her muse."  


I am the Impervious Clown.


"Do you feel the links between creativity and sexuality?
One flows from the other and both begin in the core of the body.
Build them both and express them extravagantly.


N-o-w is the time to start a new art project or love affair.
Draw a protective fire circle around yourself and go wild within it!
Then, go outside and express you newfound power in a way that at least some people
can understand.


Don't confuse inner freedom with external responsibilities.
Both are essential to the creative process.
Dazzle the world with your passion and, in so doing,
help others achieve liberation."
