Main Theme: The Magician is an immensely self-confident card and is denoted by the numeral I. The first thing that jumps out is the fact that all four minor arcana suits(swords, wands, pentacles, and cups) are present in front of the Magician and he presides over all. This alludes to the main theme of this card which is a mastery of all aspects of life. This card believes in a person’s individualistic ability to bring forth the things and experiences that they desire. Emphasis is placed on believing in one’s own abilities in order to manifest our hopes and dreams because we are powerful. This card can also be seen as a very me me me only card because it prioritizes your individualistic needs first. While that can be a positive trait for some, it can also be an indicator of a selfish person.
Why I like this card: Personally, I love love love all the symbols present in the imagery of the card. The lemniscate, especially, has always drawn me in. There’s just that thrill that comes with acquiring knowledge and mastering different skills. This card is also so empowering??? because it basically is an invitation to remove self-doubt and self-sabotage from your life and gives you a means to do it as well: by continuing to learn and develop skills until your foundations are so solid that there are no cracks present from which self-doubt can seep in.
Some Interesting Information: Interestingly, the numeral 1 or I is associated with unity which is much in league with the Magician’s(also known by the names Juggler or Magus) ability to combine and unify multiple aspects in life.
