ദി സ്ട്രുഗ്ഗ്ലെ ഓഫ് ദി MAGICIANS

Of all the pairings of the MAJOR ARCANA CARDS of THE TAROT DECK the most significant one is,what I call, THE STRUGGLE OF THE MAGICIANS....for reasons that I hope to discuss but not explain........ THE FIRST CARD in the MAJOR ARCANA DECK is usually titled THE MAGICIAN, but while it is often explained and described as such, a few things need to be mentioned....THE MAGICIAN IS A WHITE MAGICIAN, IN ESSENCE, A GOOD MAGICIAN...who is at the opposite end of EVIL......his efforts are always to overcome evil with good,etc. the usual notion of such a personage.... THE SECOND CARD in this PAIRING is that of the DEVIL, sometimes called,THE BLACK MAGICIAN, meaning, of course, the Evil Magician, though it could be said that all practitioners of 'good' or 'white' magic are battling evil,Stan or the Devil on various levels or planes and differing scales....some mundane and others 'cosmic' or 'celestial' etc. Without going further into other details I will close this topic for the moment and reserve comments for another time.....
