I feel The Magician encourages us to think outside of the box and to realise that we have many avenues and opportunities open to us.He represents the ‘I’ in all of us and our ability to handle whatever comes our way. When he turns up in a reading, he symbolises a situation in which a client needs to believe in themselves and their ability to influence an outcome.Similarly this month, I feel he is encouraging us to imagine ourselves as lightning rods; that we are powerful initiators and effectors in our own right. He reminds us not to underestimate our talents and abilities.
The Magician energy can materialise as a dynamic, magnetic person or an unexpected opportunity; one that challenges us to trust ourselves and be confident. This month he could herald a beginning or an experience in which a new sense of self can emerge; one which re-affirms that magical possibilities are abundant within the universe and within ourselves.
The Magician is a message that we can be agents of action in our own lives. We have enormous capacity to determine our lives and make things happen both in a positive and negative way. If you don’t like the way a relationship is heading or feeling unfulfilled in a job, he is the part of us that will say’I can change this or manifest something different for myself’;’I am capable, what can I do about it?’ He represents the pro-active stance we take in life; the’what can I do’ as opposed to the’what I can’t do’. With an’I CAN’ attitude we may be surprised at what and who we can conjure up in our lives.
When I imagine a Magician I see someone who makes the most of what is around and within them, seemingly managing to create something out of nothing. There is no limitation in their mind. They are aware of what they want to do, gather what they need to accomplish it and channel it purposefully. The Magician is a sign that if we can trust ourselves and strive to be as clear and motivated in our own lives, we can shape our reality and bring about a positive change.
To help you contact your inner Magician, try this short meditation:
Sit or stand with your eyes closed, whatever is comfortable and take three slow breaths in and out to centre yourself, bringing your awareness to your breath. Feel your feet connecting firmly with the ground. Once you are relaxed, take one breath in, feeling yourself filling up with confidence and on the out breath say:’I’ in such a way that you feel the strength of the words in your bones. On the second breath in, feel that confidence increasing and perhaps you can see or feel a light coming into your body. On the second breath out, emphatically say’I can’ with the emphasis on’I’. On the third breath in, feel or visualise your confidence wanting to spill outwards. On the out breath say’I CAN’ with the emphasis on’CAN’. Repeat this as many times or in different ways as you need. When you’ve finished open your eyes and notice how you feel.
This month see if you can allow yourself to breathe in the miraculous and believe in your own capabilities. The Magic is potential which lives within and all around you! Notice what happens when you seize it and channel it with confidence!
