The Magician holds an understanding of the world through hard work and dedication. Through the mastering of skills and passions, he sees through the terror of an empty life. The mastering of a skill so untouchable it appears as magic to he who is unknowledgable.

The Magician energy teaches the child to follow through with hobbies and passions. The idea of aiming one’s goals and aspirations to be higher than the bare minimum. There comes a sense of a higher self when one truly feels accomplished.

There becomes a pushing and pulling of trying to learn through frustration and understanding of a difficult job. There must be patience and attraction to pursue further, and the Magician teaches this.

The one who follows The Magician and learns to take aspects from this energy, learns selfless confidence, a deeper understanding of the world, and what oneself can achieve. Through endless nights and sheer percevierence, one can learn to experience a more fulfilling life, for both themselves and those around.
