Dreaming Lens: Were you the magician or were you watching a magician? Did the magician have an assistant? Were you the assistant? Was the illusion well crafted? Was the magic presented typical, or dream-enhanced? Were your feelings about the magician comfortable or uncomfortable?
Personal Focus: The Magician is one of the primary archetypes that make up the human condition. They represent the part of us that can use magic, divine power, and the forces of will to create anything we desire. However, there is a large distinction between this as an archetypal figure and the popularized image of a stage magician engaged in the act of entertainment.
In the world of magic, the modern-day entertainer is an illusionist who presents us with the impossible. We know that there is a trick to what he or she is doing, yet we find ourselves awestruck. This type of magician relates to the concept of manipulation.
The personality, style of show, size of venue, and quality of the magician is what offers an accurate interpretation. A bad performance might lead you to consider ways in which you don’t effectively wield your power to create. A mesmerizing performance in a majestic venue could be tapping you into the greater energy that is available to you through a belief in magical occurrences and synchronicity. The presence of an assistant invites you to consider that even a magician needs to call upon others for help in grounding them while they master an illusion.
Remember that an illusion that is self-serving is a betrayal of authenticity. A magician in your dream may be a call to investigate the amount of truth you stand in and the illusion you may still be hanging on to. An archetypal image of a Magician would appear in other scenarios than on the stage. He would not be dressed in costume, and his magic would be transformative in nature and not a function of hidden mechanisms. This distinction is important to make when such a character appears in a dream. There is a continuum being expressed here: on the one end is cheap showmanship while the other holds the true use of the mysteries of the invisible world. Where your dream falls on this continuum may give insight into your development in this area. Are you stepping into faith and your innate power to manifest your desires, or are you still trying to manipulate life into giving you what you want? [1]
