The Magician

The Magician stands with wand held pointed toward Heaven, the symbol for infinity above his head. A serpent devouring iteslf encircles his waist, an ancient symbol for death, renewal and the cyclic nature of time and eternity - creation and destruction. Before him are the four symbols of the Minor Arcana, the Wand, Cup, Sword, and Pentacle, which are the basic elements to create whatever he desires.

The Magician represents a focused, goal-oriented individual who harnesses the power of creativity, especially through willpower and determination. He reminds us that we already have everything we need to create the life we want for ourselves. We can accomplish anything if we stay focused on what we want.
