The Magician
Upright
One hand to the sky, one to the ground, the four suit-symbols laid on the table in front of him — the Magician has every tool he needs already in reach. Upright, this card says the resources exist; the only question left is whether you will actually pick them up and use them.
Reversed
Reversed, it points at a gap between talk and doing — a plan that stays a plan, or ability used to manipulate rather than build. Check whether you are actually short on tools, or just avoiding starting.
If it's your card today
