In that vibrant deck of cards, the Tarot of the Trance, we see the magician as more flowing, elegant, angular, slightly stilted in the effort to achieve balance, to achieve result.

In a tarot card reading the presence of this particular version of the magician suggests intensity and verve, the aim and effort to ground and channel experience in reality.

The right hand and arm of the magician almost merge into the colorful athame; this is a card of the elixir of life, a movement towards structure.

Tarot card readings reveal the inter-relatedness of experience, the link between event and the meaning attached to that event, that experience.

Sometimes that appears in surprising ways.

The Magician in the Robin Wood Tarot deck is full of concentration and a sense of purpose. He is robed in white with a red, flowing cloak. The tools of his skills are laid out before him on s table; his sword and wooden staff lie across each other; their shape resembles the Rune gyfu.

The magician stands with his back to a tower-like structure which forms a semi-circle in the background.

These shapes mimic the macro and the micro cosmos.

We are part of the one and the other, linked yet separate too.

Where in your life do you feel most divided? What would have you feel whole amidst the separation of one part of your life from another?.....

In the Marseilles Tarot card deck, the brim of the Magician's hat is coloured bright red.

The colour suggests focus, activity, energy, the power of Mars. The Magician appearing in a tarot card reading tells us of action, of someone about to act, to create, in their life.

This is a directed energy, focused.

What is it that you might want to bring focus to in your life, that you want to exercise conscious will about?....

The presence of the Magician card in a tarot card reading indicates a person of skill, accomplishment, technique, even mastery.

This is a person - or a quality of character - that can get things done.

Let's face it, though, magicians are also masters of illusion.

What you see is not always what you get.

Or what you see is not so much what you really see but what you think you see or what you hope to see. And we all have tales to tell of how we've been deceived by others in whom we have invested trust and confidence.

So just who is the magician in a tarot reading?

The Tarot card known as the Magician is card number one in the major Arcana. It introduces us to how we set about defining who we are as individuals in the world.

The Magician appearing in a tarot card reading indicates skill, presence, communication, mercurial abilities in general.

The gifts hidden in the small bag carried by the Fool now appear as the tools of trade of the Magician.

What do you want to create in your life?....

The Fool card in the Druid Craft tarot deck exhibits vitality and adventure. He has all he needs - in the bag he carries and in the stick (wand) casually placed across his shoulder. We can't help but be enthused by this image.

Tarot card readings call us to be bold, to step forward into the questions on our mind, into what may be worrying us, in what lies under the surface of our daily lives.

Let the Fool lead you on your path.

Where will you be led? Where do you really want to go in life?..

The Fool card reminds us: we are whole and complete. How we experience our lives, however, is that we come from that we are separate, distinct, always in the process of becoming. We know what we are not.

Tarot card readings call us into a different space.

By asking a question, we start defining a new space in our lives simply by asking that question. Think of it as an entrance into that circle of wholeness defined by zero of the Fool card.

Similarly, the shuffling of the cards in a Tarot reading mimics the mixing of the elements in creation.

So simply asking a question in itself becomes an act of creation...

What questions do you want to ask, questions that will open up what's happening in your life?....

creation. [Read More!]

How often does the truth slip out in a joke?

The Fool as the clown or jester in the tarot has an ancient lineage.

In the royal courts of old the jester had a very important role to play. Part jester, part soothsayer, the Fool could test the boundaries of acceptance, could invert the truth, could be bardic in his lampooning of authority and daily life.

Laughter, we all know, is a great medicine....

The Fool card appears in a tarot reading : what do we make of it?

The Fool has many guises, but don't be fooled by them!

Where the Fool appears in a Tarot reading will affect the interpretation we give to the card. So too, the type of deck.

The Fool in the beautifully illustrated Vision Quest Tarot appears as the Clown. She is complete, free, spontaneous and unbridled.

He'll laugh at you, laugh with you, laugh behind your back. Whatever, you can't help but notice him. He has you sit up and listen.

So the Fool can be a warning: take heed!

The Fool also says: there's plenty for all, there's always a way...
