The Magician
Unlike the Fool, he stands at the brink of the cosmos with surety. He's not impulsively stepping, but standing at the edge. He, like most Magicians poses with one hand up, and one down, in the position of a conductor, bringing magic from the divine, down to the physical realm. this is manifested in the symbols of the elements swirling around him, and the blooms of abundance surrounding him. His magic, which is very much active here, has manifested into a wild variety of roses, all at his feet. He is charged with energy and spirit, his red-violet robes swirl around him, and he has an aura of pure light. His face is calm, but seemingly focused, and his hari and beard are grey or white, which suggests age and wisdom. Around his neck looks like a mojo bag, perhaps for protection, or luck. This tells me that even the mighty Magician looks for help, sometimes. The trees in the back remind me of pillars, they're further back than the arch of trees on the Fool card, but you get the sense that the Magician has long since passed through this bridge of knowledge and is making it work for him.
