Meaning: Mercury predominates with the Magus. He is bisexual, ambidextrous, flirty, exasperating. Ever willing to communicate. He can fit in with the ambience of the situation. The Magus takes on the energies of the cards around him, and broadcasts that energy to all and sundry. The Magus makes deals. He wangles things. He tricks people. He says one thing and means another. He is a thief, but what is he stealing?
He is ever restless, circling close around the Sun. He brings down knowledge, communications and diktats from on High, but is he reliable? Can we believe he really is being truthful, or is it ever more propaganda?
The Magus loves gossip and news, however trivial... after all, you never know when those tidbits will come in useful. In conjunction with the Death or Moon card, he represents the intelligence gathering of the Secret Services, but since they are unaccountable, it is impossible to know the veracity of what they have gleaned.
If you want go get your message across, the Magus is the card for you, but beware... make sure those emails really did turn up. When the Magus is weak, expect communication problems, crossed lines, an inability to speak, or torrents of words spewing out that make no sense.Meaning obtained from Supertarot UK - For more detailed information, please see http://supertarot.co.uk/index3.htm
