With such a trump card in your hands, you can start the game! The time for waiting and inactivity has clearly passed, it’s time, it’s time! New opportunities are emerging to solve old problems and achieve set goals, and events are expected to develop soon. The Magician is a very energetically saturated and positive card, and it calls for equally energetic and creative action on the part of the questioner (“I wanted it myself, I did it myself”). The magician says - you have power. Right now, you are given the ability to control the course of events and control your environment. Strain your will and mind - and you will be able to subjugate the elements in the game, people, resources, and the driving forces of the action. Don't you want this? Carpe diem! This is a rare opportunity to transform the situation, move to a qualitatively different level of existence, surpass oneself, master new areas of life, reach new heights (material, intellectual, romantic, creative, spiritual - whatever). The Magician, as the first card of the first seven, always means the beginning of some new period of life, when nothing has been decided yet and no mistakes have been made.

The magician says that the entire process about which the question is asked takes place under the direct control of the questioner, he is the main character, and therefore he decides in which direction the situation should be turned.
As a rule, the Magician's card suggests that the present time is a period of relative security and success, when it is quite possible to create favorable conditions for yourself and generally take something under your control. The card makes it clear that there is every opportunity to transform and improve your life. According to the Magician, changes usually come from the questioner himself, although it also happens that life is transformed by some external factor (surrounding cards can give a hint of this).

The magician reports an excellent opportunity to turn his plans into reality. It foretells success and heralds a physically tangible beginning of action. It can indicate the beginning of an enterprise no worse than the Jester, a sudden insight, enlightenment. If the energy of the Jester is chaotic, then the energy of the Magician is a very purposeful and orderly impulse. What will happen next with this impulse and what it will lead to will be shown by the surrounding cards.

The main thing that the Magician does is make changes to cause the desired results to appear. He can do this as an artist, a commander or a doctor. In addition, the Magician asserts himself and transforms the world to suit himself, and invites the questioner to do the same. As a rule, a person is well aware of where that area of ​​life is in which it is time for him to be active and take the initiative into his own hands. Perhaps he resisted this for a long time and he does not want to take the bull by the horns. But it is precisely the Magician who says: for implementation there are all the necessary resources - a plan, material prerequisites, time, people, skills, personal qualities, mature karma... whatever you want to call it. Everything is available, everything works for you, you can do it. All you have to do is add initiative and enterprise, and you're done! The Magician has one purely esoteric feature - his actions “resonate” very far. They always cause consequences. Sometimes it looks like pure magic - you did a little thing, made a very small change, but the processes began unimaginably and the consequences fell like a cornucopia (it’s not a fact that they were exactly the ones the person was counting on). Well, this is exactly how magicians worked (and still work), making changes in the magic circle and causing other changes far beyond its borders. So the Magician is a kind of warning that now actions (including at the level of intentions, desires and imagination) will have increased effectiveness. Life is full of miracles. And last but not least, we must learn to control our thoughts, because now it is consciousness that determines existence.

There are many Arcana in the Tarot, which mainly emphasize the power of the unconscious. The magician emphasizes the power of consciousness. The magician is characterized by originality and creativity, intelligence, quick wit, an active life position, an independent spirit, willpower, self-confidence, the ability to control one’s own actions and influence other people, and the determination to see things through to the end. The magician knows no fear.

The forest is waist-deep to him, and the sea is knee-deep - this is his distinctive feature. He doesn’t know what it is to shake, avoid and put off, which is why his biography risks becoming a bestseller during his lifetime. Intelligence, skills - everything is with him. He is capable of catching fire with an idea himself and attracting others with him. And what seems unattainable to ordinary people, Magu sees only as another “peak” on his path. The magician is a master of communication; what he knows is how to communicate. Unlike the tough and uncompromising Emperor, the Magician is more flexible and cunning (and, as a rule, does not fully reveal his strategy to anyone). He can influence other people not only in an imperative way and his dominance is not so straightforward, and therefore may be less noticeable, but he can easily try to take power into his own hands. His actions are not random, chaotic or illogical - he KNOWS what he is doing. But he doesn’t always fully understand what he’s doing...

Some authors clearly interpret the Magician negatively, as a fraudster who should not be trusted (a similar negative distortion occurs in the case of the Priestess). Apparently, this is the result of some personal observations, and it cannot be considered the only correct one. The magician is capable of greatly influencing reality in pursuit of his goals, this is all we know about him. These goals may well be honest and noble, and the methods of influence may be sensitive and ethical. Although, of course, this is not always the case, and sometimes such an ability can completely corrupt a person.

If the Fool, without realizing himself, is identified with the Creator, then the Magician card presupposes a clear vision of himself, and an extraordinary vision. This is the first Tarot card by number: any path begins with self-awareness and self-determination. The magician loses the absolute free will of the Jester, but adds knowledge to his will, making him a master of his craft. He is full of creative male power. It can be associated with the Sun and Mercury. Mercury in its high hypostasis is a symbol of Will, Knowledge and the Word-Logos, creating worlds. In ancient times, Hermes (Mercury) was considered the patron saint of soothsayers and secret sciences; he served as the messenger of the gods, conveying their will to mortal people, but the same Hermes is the deity of cunning, and the businesslike ancient Greeks turned to him when they started any commercial business, especially not very legal. The winged messenger can report the receipt of some important information - this is another meaning of the card. The mediating, borderline role of Hermes the Magician is noted by Banzhaf and Akron (referring to another author): “In borderline situations and systems that have reached their limits, the Hermes-Mercury archetype appears everywhere: he knows how to fog, disorient... him liberating laughter shakes the system. In times of social cataclysms, revolutions and uprisings, a great many tricksters and cunning people always appear.”

It’s not for nothing that the magician is the first card of the deck. She points out at the very beginning of the journey that everything created is nothing more than a dream, the existence of magically created divine elements, and life is a continuous game of chance. The apparent miracles of nature are simply the works of a cosmic magician. In fact, the Magician is like God. The lemniscate above his head represents access to higher knowledge and the Hermetic principle “as above, so below.” In his raised hand is not a sword at all, but a staff. Wands are the personification of will and thought that controls the elements (the spirituality of the cup or cross, the pentacle of the earth or the freemason’s square, and the energy of the sword). The image on the Arcana suggests that the Magician is the ruler of the four elements of the world and the tributary of the four principles of magic: to know (cups), dare (swords), desire (wands) and remain silent (pentacles). The magician personifies the power of consciousness and confidence in one's abilities (partly rooted in ignorance), power over the forces that move this world. For him, there was contact with previously inaccessible wisdom, and as a result, an increase in realization power.

Although the card indicates a high potential of consciousness, this does not mean that the potential of other, subconscious forces at this time can be neglected. On the contrary: the readiness for action, for success, which the Magician points to, is based precisely on the harmony between consciousness and subconsciousness. It is only through the self-confidence that arises from this harmony that we can truly move mountains. The Magician's right hand is raised and absorbs power from above. The right hand is controlled by the rational left hemisphere of the brain. The wand in the right hand of the Magician attracts creative energy from heaven, consciously focuses it (in this sense it is a “magic wand”). Although it can be assumed that the Magician’s acquisition of inspiration and creative vision occurs outside of logic. But through the left hand directed at objects, controlled by the irrational right hemisphere, its influence descends on manifestations in the world. It is also often recommended to draw cards with your left hand, so that the process is carried out not so much logically as intuitively. The Magician's body is an energy channel for the embodiment of ideas, a kind of tool. Through him, that which wishes to be created rushes into the world. This magical gesture, which allows consciousness to project itself into the world, symbolizes the principle: “as above, so below.”

A magician is a young free demiurge, his thought is material, the universe in his mind becomes the reality of the universe, what he thinks will come true... the question is what. This is individualistic creative self-expression, not yet fully curbed by responsibility. The stage in spiritual development at which the formation of personality occurs through creative abilities, autocratic subordination of all aspects of life while mastering the key, there is great potential to manage oneself and the world. But in reality, the Magician is still naive and arrogant. The world seems to him like a playground, he cheerfully demiurges, but with the childish approach of Alexander the Great - to reach the end of the world, why go there... The magician does not yet know that his power over the world will end with a map where there will be only the World, and his there won't be one. The Magician embodies the childish arrogance and power of the Atlanteans, who used their energetic and gnostic abilities left and right until the planet went crazy. So there is always a specific risk here. Any Major Arcana, at any stage of development, has its own risk. For the Magician, this is the risk of “doing a lot of business, but you won’t be able to sort it out.”

Speaking about the youthful arrogance of the Magician, the LHC - the Large Hadron Collider - comes to mind. Bidstrup-style picture: a cloud floating above a collider, two elohim sitting with their legs dangling and looking down with curiosity. One says to the other:

- Listen, what did they build?
- Yes, they want to understand how ALL THIS is done! Looking for...
- A-ah!...what are they looking for?
- Yes, some kind of Higgs boson...
- Oh well...

The Magician really rules over the inner and outer world, and therefore already at this stage there is a temptation to believe that the goal has been achieved (although in fact this is just a “playroom”, the first step on the path of growth, the formation of abilities through objective activity, and the Magician is Student). This is the God complex at the childhood stage of spiritual development. A powerful, arrogant personality with a sense of limitless ability to influence reality. Iron willpower, courage and a sense of omnipotence are a rather adolescent set of self-affirmation at the stage when for the first time it is possible to demonstrate independence. But if suddenly too much happens, life will force you to learn much quieter, more precise and careful behavior (“think first and understand” - but this is for the next Arcanum, the Priestess).

Magic can also mean initiation - a rite of passage for the uninitiated. This is an extremely important threshold in the life of every person.

The magician speaks of making a profit through enterprise and the use of his abilities. Nothing will fall from the sky for nothing, but knowledge and skills will be appreciated and will help you earn money. This is a classic indicator of business and entrepreneurial activity. The magician helps you proactively deal with money issues and take control of your finances. He also says that a person understands how the world works, where money comes from and what needs to be done to achieve results.
In any case, the Magician says that now there is an opportunity to transform the situation in the direction you desire.

The Magician is an ambiguous card in love.
On the one hand, he has gained fame as a sign of powerful, bright, confident male sexuality. One is the archetype of a masculine number, and the Magician’s wand is a phallic symbol. The partner described by the Magician is a bright personality, sexy, courageous, self-confident, possessing all the fullness of physical and spiritual abilities. Not so rare - a subtle dictator and manipulator, regardless of gender. The magician knows how to charm and charm. He knows how to take the first step or attract without taking this step, but motivating another to take it.

With not particularly favorable surrounding cards (the crown here, of course, is the Devil), the Magician emphasizes issues of power, control and confrontation between the parties (“in that duel of self-will, who had only the ball in whose hand?”). When the Magician's motto is “I want!” falls on the motto “But I don’t want to!”, viscous power relations are formed (“you will be mine!”), serious games, confrontations, a struggle of wills, sometimes “until victory”, after which the universe cannot be restored. The magician is a very enterprising and strong-willed comrade, and in essence rushes like a tank, eliminating all obstacles on the way (although outwardly this may not look so straightforward, but very veiled, especially for female Mages). He is characterized by exceptional self-motivation (namely “self” - the other side may not motivate and even kick back in every possible way), and he does not calm down until he achieves his goal. Sometimes it is indicated that he is used to getting everything at once, and patience is not his strong side, but one can argue with this. The magician focuses on the task with all his will, “with all his thoughts, with all his understanding” (this is why the magician is an excellent card for medical type training, during which a person is ready to go through everything and subordinate himself to the goal). In general, his “professional advice” is to devote body and soul to the business. And in this case, the “business” becomes the conquest of another person. Therefore, as the great Bulgakov would say, be trustworthy. If this is truly his goal, he will find means.

At the same time, the Magician is a great individualist. A unit is a unit. His individuality is so strong that he does not feel any special need for additions. He is selfish, smart, not particularly sentimental and endowed with a strong will to act - for example, to end a relationship that does not suit him, or to start a relationship that he now needs. He is not always inclined to pay attention to the moods and feelings of other people (or rather, he takes them into account insofar as it is in his interests).

As in everything else, the Magician says that it is in our power to transform the situation in the desired direction - to find the other half, divorce the first... in short, to create an ordinary miracle. The advice that a Magician can give in love is to solve problems! Forge with your own hands a new, unprecedented happiness, learn and teach, build relationships the way you want, create day after day your masterpiece, a garden in the place of the desert.

In fact, according to direct symbolism, the Magician personifies vitality and clearly says that a person is in excellent shape.
For some reason, traditional interpretations are very negative, perhaps due to the close association with the healer, and since the healer came, it means something happened - trouble, misfortune, suffering, grief, frustration, illness, illness, weakness, melancholy, pain, doctor , healer.
In modern interpretations, it is believed that the Magician foretells a favorable outcome if the question concerns health problems (the doctor will be able to provide the necessary help, and it must be taken into account that physical and mental health are closely related).
The inverted Magician generally strongly emphasizes mental imbalance (perhaps because in the natural state the mind and will are at their best - here they are blocked or a painful manifestation develops).
The Jester faces severe stress, the danger of losing his mind, perhaps because both cards symbolize the descent of information from above into the weak human mind.
With the Seven of Swords in ancient interpretations, you won’t get sick, this is for the better.

A reversed card can indicate two different things: a blocked flow of energy or a misuse of energy. In the first case, it is weakness of will and skills, impotence, and lack of self-confidence. It can signal indecision and uncertainty, a dismissive and unfounded attitude towards both oneself (as a person) and one’s abilities. Nevertheless, there are authors who assure that the Magician card is always positive - a person simply underestimates his control over the situation, the volume, so to speak, of the exercise of power. Inverted, the Magician can mean that the moment of choice has already been missed, that events have begun to unfold according to their own laws, so now all that remains is to wait for the result.
In the second case, the inverted Magician indicates the use of skills for destructive purposes, abuse of power and authority, and selfishness. As the wonderful author Mary Greer writes, “The Reversed Magician reminds me of a teenager who, having committed an offense, shouts “It’s not me!” I wasn’t here at all.”

Cunning, unprincipled and deceitful, playing on the weaknesses of others (for example, a fraudster, a blackmailer, a recruiter). In addition, this is a case where someone may have outwitted himself - the goal was achieved and it turned out that it was not at all what was needed. Sometimes it may indicate that the goal is good, but the means were chosen poorly (for example, an office romance in a given company is not the best way to build a career). Other cards in the layout will say more about this.
Sometimes the possibility is pointed out that someone is undertaking magical operations against the querent.

Cards that enhance the effect of the Magician in the layout include Judgment (foreshadowing final success and the most positive changes in life), Eight of Pentacles (development of skill), Eight of Wands (element of insight, comprehension of secrets), Two of Wands (gaining power). Surely, an enhancing resonant effect can be expected from other cards, for example, the Emperor, Strength, Sun, Six of Wands, Three of Pentacles.

A Star or Moon next to the Magician speaks of the benefits of developing intuitive abilities and the need to listen to your inner voice. It makes sense to act on instinct, even if from the outside it contradicts common sense.

Cards of opposite energy are the expectant introverted Priestess, the inactive, tied hand and foot Hanged Man, the Four of Swords who took a time out, and the Eight of Swords languishing from powerlessness and embarrassment.

The combination of the Magician and the Devil (“fear your desires”) and the Magician and the Tower (here comes the score) is eloquent.

This is Hermes Trismegistus, the Alchemist. He has comprehended everything, alpha and omega, and the symbol of infinity floats above his head, the fusion of consciousness and subconscious, the main Hermetic principle (as above, so below...).

Daedalus (brilliant ancient inventor)

In most books on tarot, the authors agree that the god Mercury corresponds to the Magician; he was the patron of soothsayers, secret sciences, and conveyed the will of the gods to people. But he was also the patron saint of cunning people, swindlers and rogues. They prayed to him when they started something not entirely honest and legal, or a commercial business.

The magician embodies the active solar principle, the Yang principle. The card depicts him as a man who receives power from above and applies it on earth. The connection between what is above and what is below (This is the principle of Hermes the Thrice Great, the essence of which in brief is that the microcosm inside each person contains all the elements of the Macrocosm. And therefore, studying oneself will lead to understanding the essence of the whole World! Also this symbolism is indicated by its rod and lemniscate (the reclining figure eight is a symbol of infinity, the fusion of the conscious and unconscious Lemniscate personifies the exchange of energy between the worlds).

The Magician's Belt is the Ouroboros serpent - an alchemical symbol of the infinity of the world and knowledge.

The quadrangular table in front of the Magician is a symbol of matter. This is our earthly reality, we will see a similar symbol in other Major Arcana, such as in the Pope card and in the Devil card. There are 4 objects on the table in front of the Magician: a rod, a cup, a sword and pentacles. They symbolize the 4 cardinal directions, 4 seasons and 4 elements: fire (personification of will, impulse), earth (personification of matter), air (personification of mind) and water (personification of soul). According to Carl Jung, there are 4 psychological functions: sensation, intuition, thinking and feeling. This is our internal resource, which must be fully mastered. It is not the objects themselves that are important, but the ability to dominate them. That's why on some decks the Mage juggles objects.

As Crowley writes, “Mercury symbolizes action in all its forms and phases... It represents the endless and continuous act of creation. “And the Magician speaks of self-knowledge, awareness and further development of this potential in order to put it at his service. The whole card is unambiguous, unlike the ambiguous Jester, it is like the embodiment of the fact that before us is a free-willed person who has enough strength and capabilities to realize everything he has planned. All 4 elements collected together are a symbol of the integrity of Creation, because... According to ancient ideas, everything in this world consists of 4 elements. Everything in the Magician's chart tells us about the task with which he was born, through which integrity can be achieved.

The main meaning of the card is that self-confidence and will, guided by reason, can lead a person to his goals. After all, if you have the will to rule over yourself, then all the elements of this world will submit. The Magician's self-confidence is supported only by the ability to control his passions. Once you weaken your will, you can easily turn from a Magician into a Magician who can only juggle objects and think how long he can do it. But you shouldn’t get stuck on the Magician stage; this is just the first stage, at which, alas, many prefer to stay and refuse spiritual growth and self-improvement in exchange for power.

The meaning of the Magician in the Tarot is peace of mind, the unity of the spiritual and physical, a lively mind and tranquility. The card also has other names - Juggler, Magician or Wizard. The planet with which the 1st Arcana is associated is Mercury. Experts are confident that the position of the card from an astrological point of view reveals the spirit of initiative and courage, energy and courage.

Mage card - meaning

  1. Card color is red.
  2. The symbol of the lasso is iron.
  3. Stone - ruby.
  4. The animal is a rooster, as bright and eccentric as the Magician.
  5. The plant is tobacco, which intoxicates the mind and plunges into the abyss of secrets and mysteries.

1 Arcana Tarot meaning: a magician is a strong will and determination or, conversely, a defeat of physical or mental health. However, experts come to the conclusion that a person who has received this lasso can dominate circumstances that were previously beyond his control. You just need to make a strong-willed decision and even the disease will recede. The magician will mean that all goals will be conquered.

Value in upright position

If the fortuneteller gets 1 Arcana in an upright position, then the meaning can be interpreted as follows - you are a very brave and strong-willed person who strives for spiritual development and self-improvement with all his might and means. Pay special attention to the spirit and body, because perfection must be in everything, and the body is a temple.

Your personality is so bright and original that you always stand out from the crowd. You have talents and abilities, but you need to use them wisely, because nature endowed you with them for a reason. If a person does not follow this advice, the consequences can be very serious, since he can easily turn into a tyrant and manipulator, using his abilities for selfish reasons and to the detriment of others.

The Magician card is a good symbol of future changes, because control over life will be in your hands and this will allow you to correct what does not suit you or upsets you. You need to constantly practice, improve and develop your will so as not to lose your abilities. If a person gives up, then previously occupied positions will slip out of his hands. If you really want to achieve heights both in your personal relationships and in your work relationships, then try your best.

Life gave us a second chance to start everything from scratch, without looking back. Past mistakes are a reminder of what not to do, otherwise all your work will go down the drain and you will have to start all over again. The Magician is a card that symbolizes security and possibilities, limited only by your desires. The card marks a period of new achievements (for example, the birth of a child, the development of a new project, a change of workplace, or the implementation of the most daring ideas and plans that were waiting in the wings).

The Tarot Magician has purely masculine energy. It is for this reason that this lasso appears extremely rarely in women’s scenarios. An exception may be cases when a representative of the fair sex is a born leader with a steely grip and a lively mind. This woman acts like a real man, and the card brings her tremendous success.

Reversed Magician Tarot

Just like in the upright position, a Magician inverted in the Tarot can be interpreted in different ways. Arkan warns the fortuneteller that unexpected difficulties and problems have arisen on his life's path, which will cause a lot of trouble in the future. Perhaps he lacks the energy impulse to resolve matters, and this leads to emptiness and further apathy. Or the situation is radically opposite - excess energy pushes a person to thoughtful actions.

Strong uncertainty gnaws from the inside, life passes by and this causes a feeling of deep hopelessness and depression, things don’t go well, and things just fall out of hand. To get out of this abyss, you need to engage in self-education and self-improvement of both spirit and body. Also, the first lasso has the following meaning: soon a person will face a difficult choice on which his whole life will depend. He is not yet ready for such sharp turns of fate and it is for this reason that problems will surround him from all sides.

The inverted magician serves as a message , hinting at that that the person already had one great opportunity to change everything, but he missed it. Fate will not give you a second chance and you just have to wait for the situation to be resolved naturally and without your intervention. A person with such a card is a narcissist, an egoist and a maximalist who thinks only about himself.

The wizard, reversed in the layouts, is a harbinger of fundamental changes that are beyond the control of human will and reason.

In a relationship

In the scenario of love and relationships this lasso gives a positive answer to all endeavors. All possible difficulties will pass by and the path will be open; you should not pay close attention to various misunderstandings and nuances. Never use people to achieve your own benefit. The results will be short-term and will not bring proper pleasure, and the results of your actions will come back to haunt you later.

In love, the Magician is a manifestation of initiative and, depending on the stage of the relationship, it will be different. Initiative can be expressed in the desire to conquer, push to start a new relationship, seduce, etc. But it is worth noting that the main desire to achieve favor should come from the stronger sex. Girls should strive Do your best to preserve and direct the connection that has arisen in the right direction.

If a girl gets a card in a reading, then this can be interpreted as a situation in which she is surrounded by many fans and needs to make the right choice. In this case, love and relationships will be strong and reliable, and harmony and mutual understanding will reign for a long time.

Magician in working relationship readings

The magician at work says that the fortuneteller is well aware and understands his potential, and uses initiative to realize it. If the initiative is directed in the right direction, then success will be guaranteed , financial situation will improve and the long-awaited prospect of promotion will open.

  • Complex projects and other difficulties that previously formed on your career path will be resolved in the best possible way. If the fortuneteller is a leader, then in order to improve the atmosphere in the team, he needs to encourage his subordinates, give them an additional bonus or vacation. Not only he, but the entire organization will benefit.
  • Any problems under the sign of 1 Arcana will evaporate. Difficult and exhausting negotiations will bring the desired results. The deals you dreamed about will come true, and your workforce will become your second family and will support you in everything.

Arcana Magician and consciousness

The gift of persuasion will be revealed in the fortuneteller, and even the most intelligent and brilliant people will envy him in his intelligence. Whatever a person undertakes, everything will burn in his hands, things will move at the speed of a rocket and it will be he who will manage it. The magician helps to broaden one's horizons and suggests development prospects in the near future. The prospect will be completely open to the eye and minor details will not be able to move the fortuneteller from the intended path.

For people with deep spiritual energy, the Magician Tarot card is the personification of responsibility for their own decisions and conscious control of their destiny, acceptance and understanding of life goals.

Tarot Magician and health

In terms of health, this lasso serves as a kind of warning that the cards give. Be sure to monitor how you feel and note what causes concern. Analysis and check of your well-being and health does not consist in the universally recognized running around to doctors and various procedures.

The Wizard and Relations with the Outside World

What does the Magician's card promise for those who are wondering about relations with the outside world in general? The magician is preparing an interesting gift for them - a meeting with strong and wise people who know and understand exactly what to expect from life. Without a shadow of a doubt, you can become part of them, but only if your interests coincide. If not, then they will easily push you away from your own path of life. These people will help you in everything and will become your blue bird of luck, any obstacles will be overcome under their pressure and this will only benefit you.

The experience and wisdom of such people pushes them on the path of learning something new and unknown. Ideally, you are destined to become their successor or student. A union of this kind will turn not only your life upside down, but also the lives of your loved ones. Under no circumstances should you conflict with the powers that be, otherwise life will completely go downhill. You definitely can’t cope with them, you shouldn’t even try.

The meaning of the Tarot Magician in relationships with friends

The lasso in relationships with friends and associates has the most positive meaning; new pleasant acquaintances will not keep you waiting, you just have to open up to others. The influence of new people in your environment will be simply colossal and your inner impulse will help you overcome the most inaccessible peaks that you were previously afraid to think about. Friends will become a lever for moving along the right path.

Such people will not just become a rescue anchor, but a real high-speed boat that will help you get around all the pitfalls and reefs with amazing maneuverability. Friends will lay bones for you and it doesn’t matter to them what goals you pursue. But keep in mind that they can also use you to achieve their own selfish goals. Be careful and attentive, do not suspect everyone, otherwise your friendship may crack.

Mage and enemies

People who are interested in their enemies during fortune telling need to remain vigilant, since a serious and extremely dangerous struggle awaits them in the near future. At worst, it could escalate into a full-scale war. with secrets and intrigue. Your enemy has great strength and a cunning mind. Open confrontation will not lead to anything good, because under its pressure you will simply be trampled into the sand, and in the most humiliating and painful way.

Do not despair, because those who are forewarned are forearmed. Even strong people have their weak and unprotected places, which with due care and caution you can find.

Don't aim for a head-on collision. Only with the help of ingenuity and deceptive maneuvers can you win this difficult battle. The Wizard's resourcefulness will be your trump card, but you need to use it on time and wisely.

The meaning of the Arcana Tarot Magus in the Waite deck has undergone significant changes compared to the Tarot of Marseilles. From a fairground swindler and charlatan who traded in deceiving simpletons, he turned into a handsome and noble master of the elements. There are many small and interesting details on the map. Let's start with the fact that the Magician's hat has transformed into a lemniscate. The Magician's colorful clothes were replaced by a slightly pretentious red and white suit. The same theatrical in its essence, but intended to play a completely different role.

On the Tarot card, the Magician is belted with a snake. Perhaps this is an allusion to Ouroboros. There are some signs painted on the end of the table. Many guesses have been made as to what exactly is depicted there. But it's quite difficult to see. According to Marcus Katz and Tali Goodwin, it depicts symbols of three of the four elements. Finally, wild wildflowers under the feet of the Magician from the Marseille Tarot give way to lilies and roses, as a possible indication that natural forces have been tamed and transformed.

Basic meaning

As in other Major Arcana, in the description of the Magician, Waite practically does not pay attention to divinatory meanings, but mainly reveals which idea corresponds to this or that detail of the card design. Modern ideas about meanings are as follows: youth, energy, creativity. It can indicate both creativity as a process and a person with a creative nature. The Magician's creativity is rarely focused on any real, specific result. He is least concerned about extracting benefit from his creativity. He is fascinated by the process itself. The newer, the more original what he turned his attention to, the greater the chance that he will become interested in it. This applies to everything, to ideas, to relationships, and to gadgets.

Creativity requires energy, and the Magician has it in full. Energy is associated with youth. And often we are really talking about a young man. But the card can simply indicate an energetic person, regardless of his actual age.

Meaning in relationships

Open-hole card

This is a very open card, but its openness is very specific. Its activity is similar to Brownian motion, where each molecule collides with tens and hundreds of other molecules, randomly changing its trajectory.

Relationship intensity

The high intensity of relationships in the meaning of the Magician Tarot card for the future lasts as long as the effect of novelty remains. When this effect ends, the relationship ends.

Relationship scenario: love, family, relatives, work

Some cards are very easy to describe as the human condition and difficult to describe as the result of joint efforts. The meaning of the card The Magician in love is just such an individual card. If we talk about relationships, then this is, first of all, competition and play. The goal is not so much to win as to push, wrestle, and move. At the same time, this is not a team game. Rather, it is “all against all.”

It's very similar to puppy play. There is constant competition. On the one hand, the puppies are together, and on the other hand, everyone is for himself.

What attracts a partner is their willingness to play a game or offer their own game. The magician does not know how to value loyalty, reliability and everything else.

He cannot stand stagnation and routine. A constant change of impressions is important to him. He will prefer to change his partner, but not give up his games.
Now, let's look at the Magician card in combination with other Tarot cards...

In combination with the Major Arcana


  • Magician in combination with the card: An energetic undertaking turns into a powerful, stable structure.
  • Mage combined with card: Starting energy is not enough to complete the process.
  • Magician in combination with the card: The matter will drag on for a long time.

Psychological condition

“And he’s in a hurry to live, and he’s in a hurry to feel.” In general, there are many examples of the Magician in literature.

For example, the wonderful poems of David Burliuk:

"Everyone is young, young, young,
There's a damn hunger in my stomach.
Everything we meet along the way
Maybe it can be used as food for us.”

The magician is greedy. But greedy in a good way. He is in a hurry to try everything, to experience everything. Not to enjoy, but to live life to the fullest. He is afraid of being late, of not being in time, of not seeing. He is attracted to everything new, unknown. He's willing to take risks. He perceives life itself as an exciting game with high stakes. He is passionate, he does not understand how he can live in peace. He does not bind himself to relationships and obligations, because tomorrow there will be something new, different, even more attractive and curious than what is now.

He is very inquisitive and curious. But his interest in new objects is short-term and shallow. Superficial acquaintance completely satisfies him; the illusion of knowledge is often enough for the Magician. Enthusiasm is very characteristic of him. But usually enthusiasm does not last long, and the intended goal is rarely achieved.

Business and finance, Arcana Magician in professional activities

The financial situation changes almost every minute. Now a millionaire, two hours later - bankrupt, two hours later - a millionaire again. Money for a Magician is not a goal, but a means. He does not know how to enjoy his wealth, but he is often very good at earning money. He has powerful intuition and a well-developed creative streak. This combination allows him to place error-free bets and hit the jackpot. He knows how to notice what others don't see. Create, invent, create new structures and objects. However, he rarely manages to bring the process to a result, because he gets carried away with something new and loses interest in the old.

Stability, controllability, controllability

The map is unstable, only partially controlled. The Magician has some control over the situation itself, but at the same time he has poor control over it himself.

Ways to Increase Income (Key to Increasing Income)

Everything is new - employees, methods, field of activity, absolutely unlimited approach. The main thing is to do something that you have never done before. Ideas on the verge of creative madness. Crochet in general (as a new skill) and knit new products (trees, car bumper decorations). At first (and even at second) glance, a useless creative is just what the Magician needs.

The meaning of the Magician Tarot card in matters of work is interesting. A way to raise money for a business is a kick start. Announcement on the Internet about plans, ideas, a new non-standard product and fundraising via SMS. Audacity second happiness.

General state of finances and trends of changes

Money, as a rule, is not a goal, but a means. If the Magician puts money above all else, then he may lose the sense of “drive”. The state of finances is as chaotic as the Magician’s activity itself: now there is no money, in an hour - a million, in two hours again there is zero in the account. The card does not talk about receiving money or increasing income; it only emphasizes that through active actions, physical or mental, it is possible to maintain the desired state, “movement.” And as a result, the income and expenditure of funds are in a very wide range.

Positive and negative impact of the card on income

The property - arrogance - can be interpreted in two ways. Among the negative consequences is a very likely collision with the law; he can go against the rules just because, “weakly” or out of interest. Adrenaline junkie. But on the other hand, there is no fear of closed doors, there are no unnecessary questions - can I, do I have the right? And often unrealistic projects, announced without a shadow of a doubt, are given the green light.

How the Magician will use this opportunity is an open question. On one side of the scale is a creative breakthrough, a successful experiment, a brilliant invention with a guaranteed percentage of sales. On the other - wasted money from a family or sponsor for a crazy stillborn project.

In combination with the suit of Swords


  • In combination with: Ideal time for active actions.
  • In combination with: Ill-considered actions will lead to a broken heart.
  • In combination with: It's time to take an unconventional approach.
