The Magician Tarot Card Meaning Description
So let’s break down the magician card tarot meaning symbolism.
The Magician stands before a table on which are laid the four Minor Arcana cards, meaning Air, Fire, Water and Earth. The Magician is about to draw power from above in order to materialize his desires as he places one hand over each of these items – representing that all aspects matter equally no matter what their magnitude or complexity. Over his head there hangs an almost-symmetrical figure 8: The cosmic lemniscate – symbolizing balance and unity between himself with everything around him. The figure 8 is a symbol of eternal life and dominion, indicating the harmonious interaction of the conscious and subconscious, idea and feeling, desire and emotion.
Above the Magician’s waist, we see the well-known symbol of eternity—a serpent devouring its
tail. About his head is a rose vine with red roses, representing desire. In front of him are more red
roses intertwined with the white lilies of abstract thought. His inner garment is the white of purity; his
outer robe, the red of desire, activity, and passion.
The hand holding the magic wand is the ego-consciousness reaching up for power, while the other
hand points to earth, as if the Magician wills earth’s forces to be subservient to him. Or, it might be
said that with one hand he reaches up to take the hand of the Infinite for accomplishment in the higher
realms, while he reaches down with the other to encourage the evolution of the lower kingdoms—thus
uniting Spirit and matter in eternity.
The Magician represents your will in union with the Divine, achieving the knowledge and power
to bring desired things into manifestation through conscious self-awareness.
