The magician is my favorite card- repped by my favorite little guys.

the magician (though he's also known as the juggler) is the patron saint of artists- as one must manifest that art in order to create it. Tools available- the for suits of the tarot-- Yet using his own hands to signal to the heavens and the earth ("As above, so below") He represents skill, diplomacy, self confidence and willpower- and also pain, loss, illusions and disaster. The infinity symbol hovers above his head like a halo and a snake squeezes around his waist.

His sister card is the high priestess- a card that embodies inner knowledge that contrasts yet complements the magician's outer action.

However, the relationship with the fool is facinating and is what captures my interest in the card. The Fool is zero, it's nothingness. Simultaniously existing as the concept of null and the concept of infinity- and in relation to the fool's journey, he is The fool's creative thought, the first step needed... a metaphorical "big bang".

While in general, the magician seems to relate to all elements: there is a reason why the latest are related to the wind/energy element & why Morgana's secondary persona is Mercurius as he's often related to sky gods ("As above, so below" again).

there's a lot to say about the magician and honestly, there's more to say about the concepts of animus and anima and existing as both Mercurious and Adam and Phillospher's stone and such. but the magicican is such an amazing card
