The Magician represents the purest form of manifestation. He is the source of all creation. He links the conscious and the subconscious, the will and the soul, and the mind and the heart, the Above and Below.

The Magician tarot card is connected to the planet Mercury – the planet of communication, knowledge, and magic, and Mercury is connected to the element of Air. Air is the element of spirit and is represented by the eagle. The eagle is the symbol of the messenger of the heavens, and Hermes was the messenger of the gods. Air is both the element of spirit and intellect.

You can see the world with new eyes and communicate with the subconscious mind. You can manifest your dreams. You make things happen when the Magician appears in a reading. You attract more of what you want by being more of who you are. Your life attracts more like you.
