This card is one of action and initiative. The Magician is commonly shown, wand in right hand pointed to the sky, left hand pointing downwards, demonstrating his ability to bridge the gap between heaven and Earth. This is similar to the Buddha's earth touching mudra. The Magician card is one of great personal power and self-determination.
