MAJOR ARCANA, TAROT

The Magician

The Magician is powerfully charismatic as he stands before us representing masculine energy and creation. He has the symbol of infinity above him and placed on the table before him lie the symbols of the Elementary Dignitaries; The Airy Sword, The Wand of Fire, The Chalice of Love and Emotions, and The Pentacle of Work and Wealth. The Magician has the powerful ability to create that which he wants. When The Magician appears he is frequently there to remind you of your personal power. He lets you know that you have to start creating whatever it is that you want in your life - love, money, career, adventure, solutions. Harness your willpower, you too can create as he does. The Magician, if appearing as another person or situation, may be a warning to be careful, not to be fooled. Keep your wits about you, because you are either talking a magician or a trickster. Avoid making decisions quickly, do not be spontaneous, and do your homework, particularly if you fear you are dealing with a snake oil salesman. In terms of career, The Magician encourages you to believe in yourself and reminds you of your fits with words and power to influence others. Interpretations - Magnetic personality, charming, convincing, ego - Trickster, charlatan - His words are magic - Originality, creation, creativity - Self-confidence -

The Devil, The Lovers, and The World

What mood or feelings rise up in you? Which card seems to be the most significant one or the one that draws your attention the most? Do the cards please, displease, confuse, energize or depress you? Take notice of your feelings and realize that your feelings are going to help guide you as you interpret the spread. As I mentioned, interpreting a spread generally depends upon the question asked. However, at a very top level, I see these cards as indicating the need to choose a new path. The path ahead is shown as being based upon temptation (devil), opportunity (lovers) and the world - a decision to move forward… the temptation indicated by The Devil seems likely to be a troubled one as opposed to a good or positive one - the overwhelming desire for something that is hard to resist usually points towards addictions, infidelity, self-destructive or capricious, impulsive behavior….

Temperance XIV | Alchemy – Meaning & Interpretations

Who holds the secrets of the elemental powers? The Angel of Temperance; The Alchemist. The Alchemist is a magician, one who manifests his or her will. The Alchemist is an occultist, one who seeks the truth. The Alchemist is the high priestess, one who brings opposing worlds together. The Alchemist is an earthbound angel – embodying and harmonizing of all that surrounds. Always with a mind that can embrace opposing thoughts or concepts at the same time. The ability to hold diametrically opposed thoughts or concepts is represented frequently by the angels grounding – one foot stands on earth and the other foot that stands in water. No wonder so many people struggle to grasp at the true meaning of our Angel of Temperance. The one who makes opposites of equals and equals of opposites. The one who can mix fire and water. The Angel of Temperance appears in some tarot decks to be androgynous and does embody many character traits more traditionally perceived as masculine. However, Temperance is female. Our Alchemist must be a woman. She stands grounded in the feminine elements of earth and water – pentacles and cups. Standing focused on the work of creation and harmonization. One of the most obvious examples of which is procreation which blends together the male and the female inside the female body to bring about new
