The Magician Tarot: Ancient Wisdom
On the table in front of the Magician are the symbols of the four Tarot suits, signifying the elements of natural life, which lie like counters before the adept, and he adapts them as he wills. Beneath are roses and lilies, the flos campi and lilium convallium, changed into garden flowers, to show the culture of aspiration.
This card signifies the divine motive in man, reflecting God, the will in the liberation of its union with that which is above. It is also the unity of individual being on all planes, and in a very high sense it is thought, in the fixation thereof.
With further reference to what we have called the sign of life and its connection with the number 8. It may be remembered that Christian Gnosticism speaks of rebirth in Christ as a change “unto the Ogdoad.”
Also the mystic number is termed Jerusalem above, the Land flowing with Milk and Honey, the Holy Spirit and the Land of the Lord. In addition, according to Martinism, 8 is the number of Christ.
