Major Arcana - The Magician

So the Fool's Journey has begun and the first character he meets is the Magician. The Magician embodies the positive, active, side of the physical world. He's the masculine power of creative impulse and he represents our conscious awareness. By meeting the Magician you could say the Fool materialises into the physical world. The Magician represents the force that allows us to make a difference in the world through concentrating our individual will and power. He's the conscious beginning of our spiritual journey and his number is 1.

The Magician will support you when you discover a deep and powerful urge to know yourself and make use of your own natural powers. Whatever it is you want to accomplish, meditate on the Magician and the tools of your trade and he'll actively share in your adventure. He might come to you in a dream as a teacher, sage, wizard or shaman.

The Magician embodies the quest for self-realisation and stands for initiative and action. He indicates organisation, decision-making and managerial qualities. If you see him in a reading it's time to take control of a situation, maybe forcefully, definitely positively. He's the authority who acts for the common good.

Seek yourself with a belief in magic and the Magician shall appear to sharpen your will and focus your intent!
