The Magician

You're about to take a very important new step in your life, one that will require some serious decision-making. Opportunities that call for both intuitive insight as well as clear conscious thinking are going to present themselves and you're going to need to draw on both your inner and outer resources to guide you through. You may find this is a perfect venue to showcase your creative and artistic abilities. You have a huge reserve of creative power and mental energy right now that you'll be able to put to good use. There are choices to be made in your life and using your determination and innate strength will enable you to use your creative talents and mental capabilities to their fullest.

The Magician and Six of Pentacles

Card One. What you Seek. The Magician. You're ready to use your creative gifts and abilities, and to possibly tap into some undeveloped potential you're not yet aware of. You have a great deal of power and energy with which to pursue your new goals. You're intelligent and imaginative, and with self-awareness you'll be able to channel these attributes in a very concrete and practical way. Take the initiative and use your talents to their fullest.

Card Two. What Will Come to You Unbidden. Six of Pentacles. You will soon be in a position to share your resources with others. Remember the adage "what goes around, comes around" for what you give to others will return to you in abundance. This is a time of not only sharing what you have financially or creatively, but of karmic obligation. You'll find yourself clearing a debt or repaying a favor of some kind. This is the card of ethics and remembering to be charitable in all your actions.

The Magician

This is the first numbered card in the Major Arcana, and "one" is the number of masculine power: forceful, decisive and perfect for new beginnings. And that is exactly what you are experiencing, an exciting new beginning and the development of untapped potential within yourself, especially creatively and intellectually. Opportunities that allow you to explore these areas are likely to present themselves and when they do, you should embrace them. Take action and draw from your inner reservoir of power and energy. The Magician tells you that there are choices to be made and you must be fully determined and act decisively if you are to use your talents and intellect to your fullest potential.

The Haindl Tarot is an interesting deck. It reflects on the spiritual reverance of nature by Native American and indigenous cultures as well as drawing on the pantheon of mythological deities worshipped by ancient civilizations.
