The Magician is the archetype of awareness, inner work, initiation, and healing. Without adequate access to this psychological resource a man will sleepwalk through his life, never asking the questions which can liberate him from his credulity and naivete. He needs the magician within, “the inner shaman”, to help him wake up, to give him the keys to access the various inner spaces of the masculine personality, and to help him serve responsibly as a ritual elder for other men.
