The Psychology of The Magician

The Magician is the most mysterious and fascinating of all archetypes. He is a person who has gained access to esoteric or occult (hidden) knowledge, bringing the spiritual to the material. Thus, he is an initiate of secret and hidden knowledge of all kinds. As the Emerald Tablet teaches us, “As above, so below, and as below, so above, to accomplish the marvels of the One work.” The Magician is often the mentor or guide to his people, and even to the king. Psychologically, the Magician is the archetype of transformation, transforming old realities into new ones. He is the archetype of self-realisation par excellence. The Magician aids us in our lifelong task of attaining a higher level of consciousness, and of recognising that higher power which is greater than ourselves. ⭐ Support this work on Patreon: 📺 Support this work on YouTube: 🛒 Official Merch: 📖 eBooks ☕ Donate a Coffee: 📘 PayPal: 📨 Subscribe to newsletter: 📚 My personal library: 🎨 Access transcript and artwork gallery: ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Recommended Reading ▶ Awakening the Heroes Within - Carol S.
