​The Magician and Mercury RX in Pisces

With Mercury, known as "the messenger" and "the trickster", and also associated with the Magician in the tarot, currently retrograde in Pisces, the sign of things hidden, the spiritual realm, the imagination, fantasy, illusion, and the shamanic and dream worlds, we have the opportunity to uncover that within us which keeps us from accessing our powers of alchemy and creating the experience of life we most desire. 

The Magician
​..........................
"Originality, creativity, skill, willpower, self-confidence, dexterity, and sleight of hand.  It is about grasping the unseen around you and harnessing it to become reality, drawing forth the ineffable into the material realm of existence.  This Magician draws upon relics representative of the elements:  fire in his lantern, the voice of the sea in the shell, a breath of wind in the raven's feather, and earth from the leaves.  He knows what he wants, and he knows he can make it happen with conscious exertion of his will and his knowledge of how to manipulate the world."

I. The Magician, Shadowscapes Tarot; Art by Stephanie Law

The Magician is a master of the elements and a master of personal will, with the ability to create reality. 

Pisces is a sign of spirit, intuition, and magic. 

Magical thinking and navigating by intuition may well better serve us now than an mundane mode of operation. 

Now is the time to greet each new day expecting miracles, remembering that we are each the magician, the alchemist, and to call in our muses and guides to assist us as we call forth the elements to use in forming our new world moment by moment with each and every breath and every thought and every word.  

This is our time to uncover limiting beliefs that are blocking us and heal the wounds that keep us in pain and fear.

Mercury is thoughts, the mind, words, and communication. Our thoughts and words are spells we cast with each and every breath.

It is time to pay attention to what we are telling ourselves, each other, and the Universe, and craft and hone it into the spells that will consciously create our reality in alignment with our heart's truest desires.
