In your reading
The Magician connects heaven and earth. In his right hand he holds a wand that points up while he points his finger down. This way he tells you where he gets his inspiration from: so above, so below. Just like The Fool, The Magus is still innocent and without experience but he is firmly standing on the ground in the middle of the earthly reality.
And that is where you are also. This is it. This is your reality. Do you like it or would you like something else? If you like where you are then please move on with the next step, but if you do not like where you are then this is the place to create the plan. Visualize what you want to be or where you want to be. You can be like a magician. You can create anything you want.
See where you want to be and feel content with reaching that point in life. Feel good about it. If you feel fear about how to get there or if you will ever get there then you will create the opposite. Think like all the masters of Law of Attraction tell you to: fake it before you make it. Just be bold.
Just know that you have everything you need to create what you want. You have the wand for inspiration, the cup for the feelings attached to reaching your goal, the sword for making a plan and the pentacle for manifesting what you always wanted.
Think YES instead of NO. Know that you have potential power to have what you want. It is just a matter of doing what Tinkerbell ordered Peter Pan to do: think happy thoughts Peter! And off he went even though he didn't believe in his flying potential just minutes before that.
Think happy thoughts!
