Card 1
The Magician
Description
A figure stands at a table. One hand to the sky, one to the ground. As above, so below. On the table sits a cup, a pentacle, a sword, a wand. Every element, every tool. Infinity sign above his head. He has what he needs to build.

Upright Meanings
You have the tools. All of them. Not someday. Now. The Magician says move on the idea while it's still warm. Focus on one thing. Drop what's pulling your attention sideways. What you imagine, you can build. But only if you start.
Reversed Meanings
Two reads. Either you have the tools and you're not using them. Or someone is using them for the wrong reasons. Could be you. Could be someone close. Manipulation hides as charm. Wasted skill hides as fear. Both worth checking.
