The Magician

Quantum Tarot Magician

Traditionally, the Magician, the card #2 in the Major Arcana, was associated with the ancient god Hermes / Mercury, messenger of the gods. Later, Medieval alchemists traced their craft to Hermes Trismegistus, or thrice-blessed Hermes.

The LWB of the Quantum Tarot associates this cared with Electromagnetic Force, represented by the rainbow colors, and describes the figure in the card as seeming to be “playing with energy… bringing consciousness and understanding to illuminate mystery.” The parallels to alchemy are all too apparent to anyone who knows even a little about the subject. The LWB goes on to say:

He represents the light of conscious thought and the ability to manifest an intangible idea or vision in the material world… Whenever we engage in a creative act that makes something out of nothing, we inhabit the magician archetype.

Sounds like the perfect card for a writer, doesn’t it? I’m hoping to tap into some Magician energy as I start my new project, the final story in my Alliance series.
