"The true self is the meaning of the True Will: know thyself through Thy Way. Calculate well the formula of Thy Way. Create freely, absorb joyously, divide intently, consolidate completely.
Wake Thou omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent in and for Eternity" (Aleister Crowley)
Correspondence:-
Colour: Purple
Herb: Ginseng
Astrology: Mercury (the God depicted on this card)
Rune: Fehu; this is the first rune. Indicates possesions, income won or earned. Wealth which must be calculated wisely to be of any relevance (be it social or monetary). Karmic wealth invested wisely.
Hebrew: Beth the symbol of habitations and receptacles of anything which "contains". It is viril and paternal, a glyph of active and interior action
Let us now analyse the card. For those who have the deck containing the 3 Magus cards we refer to that card depicting Mercury in gold colour upon 2 large wings and Thoth behind on lower right hand corner in the form of a baboon.
The card represents will, wisdom and communication on all levels. You may note he is juggling all the different tools of communication. The Magus is a genius at utilising his skill with these objects.
The Magus is on the border of the dark and the light. Completely aware of his abilities to use his power of communication and magick. He has no conscience and is apt to superiority and power, often tempted to misuse his talents. However in this card you will note The Magus wears a smile which is an indication of his positive purpose. The baboon in the lower right hand corner is the other image of Thoth. Thoth was associated with the Moon (in Ancient Egypt baboons only ever came out at night and with the Dawn they would howl at the Sun). Thoth of course is the God of scribe, written words and communication.
Take a look at the objects The Magus juggles:
- Coins;matter, finance
- Fire;inspiration, renewal
- Wand;religion, spirituality
- Arrow;aim, focus
- Scroll;the written word
- Winged Egg;ESP, intuitiveness
- Snake in Cup;sexuality, relationships
- Sword;logic, intellect
Again the Caduceus appears on this card (above The Magus' head) indicating health and well being within the process of thought. The Eye of Horus is indicative of perception and protection. Note also the blue/yellow beam of energy which runs through his centre from above his head through his feet. The Magus is receiving Universal inspiration. The Magus cannot react without remaining within the true service of the Univeral Law which empowers him.
