The Magician is in direct line with the Fool, juggling with the possibilities of life.
The Magician raises his magic wand to bring the creative life force into reality.
The Magician is well aware of the psychic power that the Fool so carelessly carries over his shoulder.

The Magician symbolises consciousness, action and creativity. He is the manifestation of thought, creating something real out of life’s possibilities.
He uses the physical world to practice magic, and creates it in the sense of giving life direction and content.

The posture of the Magician is like a lightening rod, pulling down the spiritual force, letting the energy run down into the ground. Into reality.
This is symbolising the descent of spirit.

Tuning into the creative force and becoming a channel for this energy, this inspiration. In Spirit. Our bodies are not designed to contain this life force, but to let it flow through. This is when we function best, as vessels for creative and active living.

The Magician reminds us not to try to hold on and grasp the moment of magic in our lives, but to understand that the only way to hold this vital force is to pass it on. The feelings of power, that essentially is life, withers away if we try to maintain it.
