The Magician as feelings: what it says about how they feel

The Magician as feelings describes intention. This is someone who is not only drawn to you but who knows it, and who has thought about what they might do about it.

It is a confident card, and confidence can be generous or performed. The Magician asks you to watch what someone does, not only what they say, because this card is very good with words.

The Magician as feelings, upright

Upright, the Magician as feelings means focused interest. They are paying attention, they want to make an impression, and they believe something could happen between you. On the card a figure stands at a table with a cup, a sword, a wand and a coin laid out in front of them, one hand raised and one pointing down: everything needed, ready to be used. As a feeling it is initiative. Expect them to make a move, or to wish they could.

The Magician reversed as feelings

Reversed, the Magician as feelings can mean intention without follow through: plenty of charm, not much action. It can point to someone unsure of themselves who hides it well, or, less often, to someone saying what you want to hear. Reversed, the card asks whether the words and the actions match.

The Magician as how someone sees you

As how someone sees you, the Magician suggests they see you as capable and magnetic, someone who makes things happen. You may impress them, and possibly intimidate them a little.

The Magician as feelings from an ex

From an ex, the Magician as feelings can mean they believe they could win you back, or that they are thinking about what they would do differently. Upright, that may become an approach. Reversed, it is often talk.

The Magician next to other cards

What to do with this card

Let actions be the measure. If the Magician is real, it shows up as effort: a plan, a call, a time and a place. If it stays at clever messages, the card is telling you something about the gap between charm and choice.

Ask the cards your own question
