the carnivalthis page is dedicated to the carnival and it's word. the whole story behind the joker's cards and each of their meanings. This story of course came fron one of Violent J's dreams. This whole thing came to him in his sleep. As we all know, there are in fact 6 joker's cards. and before i get started i will address something. yes there was, talk of a 7th joker's card, and that started an uproar in our family. all that i've heard is that there was a rumor here and there over this whole issue and as far as im concerend nothing was released officially about it. anyway back to the carnival. i've noticed when someone comes up new and fresh to the family, some of us don't even bother to get to know these new homies. we just assume "juggahoe" and move on. and on a random note i dont like that. i don't like that word or what it stands for. "fake" is one f word i will not use. if you know about the carnival and its message and you truely belive it in your heart then you're a lo or lette in my book. so, anyway, as we finally get to the whole point of this page....
so moving on. like i said there are 6 joker's cards. Carnival of Carnage, The Ringmaster, The Riddlebox, The Great Milenko, The Amazing Jekel Brothers, and The Wraith. Now each of these cards have their own meaning. Each of them has their own meaning of which to look at our own lives.
the first being The Carnival of Carnage. This carnival is where it all takes place. Where all the evil is and where it is in ourselves.
the second being The Ringmaster. Now like The Carnival of Carnage, he too represents evil. Now before you get in a huff, thie joker's card is your own evil. All the evil things you've ever done in your lives, any sinful deed you've comitted, he represents all of it.
the third being The Riddlebox. The Riddlebox is the being you see after you die. You see many actually, but you see him right after you die. He is, in simple terms, a "jack-in- the-box" of sorts. When you approach him you must turn the crank. What will appears next is your final destination. If an image of heaven and God appears, you will be lifted to Shangri-la by a being to be named later in this story. But if an image of hell and Satan appears, you will be yanked down to the fires and eternal damnation by the same being.
the fourth being The Great Milenko. The Great Milenko is a necromancer. He uses magic without magic. By that I mean he uses illusions. Have you ever had an urge to take something that wasn't yours? Or have you ever been jealous of something and wanted it all to yourself? That's the Great Milenko using his magic on you. If you've ever acted upon athese urges or feelings and have actually stolen or acted, you've given the next card their job.
the fifth being The Amazing Jekel Brothers. Jake the Just and Jack the Sinister. As you can tell by their names, Jake is the "good" of lif and Jack is the "bad" of life. These two are always seen juggaling fire balls. Those are your sins. To pass onto Shangri-la, they must complete their juggaling act. If they fail then your soul goes to hell's pit. Jake Jekel wants you to go to Shangri-la. Jack Jekel wants him to fail, so as they juggle your sins, he will throw curves and tricks to Jake to make him drop your sins and force your soul to hell's pit.
the sixth and final joker's card would be The Wraith. The Wraith in basic terms would be death itself. When your destination is known he comes to guide you along the way. He will either gently guide you up to the welcoming gates of Shangri-la, or he will take you and drag you down to hell's pit.
So there it is. The basis of our juggalo family. The carnival is what started this whole thing. That's what I believe and what all the people who call themselve juggalos believe.
