Beginning
in January 2008
a serious
approach to meditating with the Tarot was offered to all who visit
this site. We began with the Fool and are now working our way through
the Major Arcana.
 The
Magician.
I
represent your conscious mind and by concentration (or meditation)
and single-minded attention to detail to a specific idea or goal I
will deliver whatever you focus upon via the subconscious mind. I can
(and so can you) draw upon the forces from 'above' or from 'within'
to bring into reality whatever you ask. If you've depended on others
in the past you'll come to realise that you can no longer do so,
you're on your own, it's time to stand on your own two feet.
It's
time for you to take the reins and determine your future course, do
you know where you want to go, what you want to do or who you want to
become? Do you? Take a look at my table for upon it are all the
elements (tools) you need but you can only have one for the moment,
make your decision: The Wand representing FIRE will give you mental
dominion over others. The Pentacle representing EARTH will give you
wealth and material comfort. The Sword representing AIR will give you
power over your enemies and the Cup, representing WATER will satisfy
your passions. Which one do you want? Concentrate.
Wherever
you see me on the tarot wheel I ask you to concentrate on this
sector/chapter of your life and bring about a fresh start. Sure, you
may have to stand alone, appear aloof in the eyes of others, you may
have to 'separate' yourself from family, friends and loved ones to
bring about whatever it is you desire, so be it. It's time to set
long-term goals and take the necessary steps to attain them and when
you look back upon this time you'll realise this period was the
foundation of a new chapter to your life (my position on the wheel
will tell you where I'm active, stirring the 'pot' so to speak).
It's
time to promote your skills and talents, to believe in yourself and
not take no for an answer, be decisive, act with confidence,
initiate, and set the wheels in motion for whatever it is you want,
just remember the word CONCENTRATE.
Take
another look at the actual card for the wand in the Magicians right
hand points to the sky above representing drawing or attracting the
'energy' from the unseen forces above and allowing it to flow through
him, notice his left hand pointing towards to ground below
representing the manifestation of this creative energy made real.
Like a lightening conductor (which earths the 'energy') ideas and
inspirations don't come from us but through us. Are you ready? On a
mundane level the Magician represents new beginnings, decisions,
independence and a fresh start. Again, let me remind you, the
Magician is a channel, a conductor, and a conduit for 'something'
about to become real.
Wherever
you see me there'll be excitement felt within every pore as you
sense something being stirred within you.
