==============================
Best viewed in large view for details

Traveling on his way, the Fool first encounters a Magician. Skillful, self-confident, a powerful magus with the infinite as a halo floating above his head, the Magician mesmerizes the Fool. When asked, the Fool gives over his bundled pack and stick to the Magician. Raising his wand to heaven, pointing his finger to Earth, the Magician calls on all powers; magically, the cloth of the pack unfolds upon the table, revealing its contents. And to the Fool’s eyes it is as if the Magician has created the future with a word. There are all the possibilities laid out, all the directions he can take. The cool, airy Sword of intellect and communication, the fiery Wand of spirituality and ambition, the overflowing Chalice of Love and emotions, the solid Pentacle of work, possessions and body. With these tools, the Fool can create anything, make anything of his life. But here’s the question, did the Magician create the tools, or were they already in the pack? Only the Magician knows – and on this mystery, our eloquent mage refuses to say a word.

At #1, the Magician is the male power of creation, creation by willpower and desire. In that ancient sense, it is the ability to make things so just by speaking them aloud (“And God said ‘Let there be Light!’ and there was Light”).

The Magician is one of my favorites in the deck. For me, the sword above and pointing finger below have some roots in the saying “That which is above is so below and that which is below, is so above.” I believe it is a teaching of Hermes Trismegistus?

Beautiful work and striking resemblance. Noticed it right off. ;) Please let me know when you’ve challenged the “Hermit.”
andreasphoto, 4 months ago

amazing – the eyes are stinging out
Al Neaimi in reply to knairn’s comment, 4 months ago

Thank you Kathy , glad you like this work , i am also looking forward to the day when the Hermit comes around to visit. :-)
Aritheeagle, 4 months ago

This is a stunning image! Love the combinations of patterns, and the glowing face.
Joyce Dickens,..., 25 days ago

Absolutely incredible work Al…....those piercing eyes looking right into our souls…. And by the way, I believe that we all have those tools, we just don’t recognize them as such and therefore, aren’t aware of how to utilize them…..the magician is not really a magician at all, just a person like you and I who has learned the secret of light. Your work is so inspirational Al…....I am truly in awe everytime I visit your portfolio!
