Description
This is The Magician based on the John Noblet deck c,1660. It is the number one Major Arcana Card of the Tarot Deck. I have created an entire deck in my own artistic style, so I am able to offer all 72 images as Fine Art Prints. So if you would like prints of any of the other Tarot Card images please contact me.
If you are interested the tarot deck itself, I have three different styles that I have created for sale in my Etsy Shop:

For those of you who are physics or intuitives you will have your own interpretation of this card, but for those of you who are not I will share what it means to me.
In the USUAL images of the Magician card, he is holding a lightning rod up towards the sky (heaven) and pointing down to the earth with his other hand, using himself to bridge the gap between the two realms. In front of him on the table he has one of all the suits, a pentacle, a cup, a sword and a baton, which indicates that he has all the resources that he needs. The infinity sign above his head means he has no limitations, everything is continuous and in constant flow.
In the John Noblet image you will see he is holding up his left hand with his middle finger (shaped like a male body part) pointing downwards. On the table is an array of items that he uses to perform magic tricks. What this imagery says to me is that everything around us is an illusion and that we should stop looking outside ourselves for answers or solutions. We have everything we need available to us, we just need to connect with our inner most being and all the answers and solutions we need will be revealed. To me his hat represents the infinity sign with the same meaning as above.
In a nutshell, I chose this card to display as Wall Art, to remind us that we have everything we need inside of us. We simply have to look within, connect to our divine essence, and we will find all that we seek.
For card readers this print would look wonderful on the wall inside or outside of the room where you do your readings. If you are interested in another card being painted for this purpose contact me and I will create it for you, not a problem.
