    The figure

    The Tarot Card, The Magician, presents the illustration of a young man standing behind a table on which some objects are arranged. In the right hand, he holds a ball, and in the left, he holds up a wand. The shape of his hat invokes the "8", the shape of the mathematical symbol for "infinity," establishing a relationship with the indivisible and eternal spirit, Fire. In conjunction with the elements arranged on the table, The Magician's Hat Symbiology suggests the potentiality of the four primordial elements or psychic functions.

    The Symbiology

    This archetype, with a playful and elusive spirit, is related to illusion and chance. It symbolizes the bridge between the inner "me" and the material world and the way in which unconscious desires insinuate themselves into consciousness, making things happen. This Charter also represents the ability to choose and confidently use skills and competencies to achieve objectives and purposes. However, it also warns of the need to know how to recognize that, despite the knowledge already acquired, it still represents a learning phase. This Charter also presents an element of insecurity since new beginnings can involve initial difficulties and obstacles to be overcome. But, The Magician's abilities make the probability of being successful high. When it is intended to start a new project or activity, this Letter's presence certifies the plans' potential and challenges the person to carry them out. Should the person face any opposition, the insightful and lively nature of El Mago ensures that nothing and no one has the ability or strength to resist him. Skillful and educated, cunning, intelligent, and mastering the art of negotiation, the figure of El Mago can be recognized in the stereotype of the lawyer, the businessman, the politician, or the actor. It represents all the people who sell illusions, both in the positive and negative sense of the term. The Magician represents the beginning of the journey that will lead the person to self-knowledge. It shows the number 1, which means beginning, origin, and initiative in Numerology. The Kabbalah corresponds to path number 12 of the Tree of Life: the crown of understanding.

    Reading, Symbiology, and Interpretation of the Major Arcana of the Tarot of Marseille

    The Tarot is used as a tool for self-discovery and self-knowledge. In this sense, more than guessing the future, it serves to read and interpret all the elements of our life: it describes the current moment, clarifies the motives, desires, and intentions, and points out the path and the energies that are present in our life. The possible readings for each Tarot Card are of virtually infinite variety. There is no single interpretation for each Card, for each Card arrangement, or for each reading method. The Tarot is based on intuition. Each person who reads the message of a Letter, or of a set of Letters, intuitively reveals the meaning of the message of the Letter and how it is associated with their own reality and life circumstances. The word "arcanum" has its origin in Latin and means "secret." In the Tarot, the Major Arcana are seen as universal, symbolic, and figurative figures: they are considered symbolic of great themes, moments, or people. They are considered archetypes; that is, they represent the most diverse feelings, moral positions, and human behaviors. When they arise in a reading, they indicate an important event or decision, be it practical, spiritual, or emotional. They also establish correspondence with the signs and planets of Astrology.
