The Magician from The Art Nouveau Tarot |
Norma Cowie writes, "Acknowledge that there is a force and power to be utilized in your life." That’s the first step. The Magician doesn’t wait for permission. He raises his wand, aligns intention with action, and draws power from above and below. His tools lie before him, his life, as Cowie puts it, and he knows it’s up to him to use them.
The white lilies and red roses, the serpent belt, and the lemniscate above his head all symbolize the same truth: mastery is possible when desire and discipline meet. But first, you must believe that change is within reach. Begin immediately.
Spiritual growth is not passive. "If you aspire to achieve your desires or goals," Cowie reminds us, "then it is up to you to go after them." The Magician shows that the laws of the universe are real and accessible—but only to those willing to engage with them.
When I pulled this card while asking for strength and determination, I understood: I already have what I need. "The Magician holds no great secrets." He simply invites us to begin.
Let this card ask you:
- What power already flows through you?
- What tools have you been ignoring?
- What life are you ready to create?
Quotes from Norma Cowie, Exploring the Patterns of the Tarot
I recently had a remarkable reading by Hannah. Her reading of The Magician card once again reveals her depth of understanding. Coincidentally, her understanding of the Magian came at a time when her interpretation was of great value personally. Hannah’s readings are not a one size fits all, but are highly individualized.
