Le Fanu said:A key question; why was this Magus (I refer to the standard Magus as Majorette surfer dude) chosen over and above the others? This Magus must have something which the other two rejected Magus cards don't have and I would like to be able to distil it for my own understanding of the deck, as it is such a key card.
I definitely feel a difference in the movement & energy of the image, but more and more I have come to prefer the 8-armed Magus and now my most used Thoth tends to be the 3-Magus versions (I have three copies of them). I know I'm at odds with Crowley but there is something about those Shiva arms and the looming baboon which really gets me. I like the fact that he is really multi-tasking whereas the standard Magus has his tools and accessories airborn.
Just thinking out loud.
I like the juggling aspect - I posted about it at length somewhere. yeah, it woukld be good to have multiple arms, to do multiple things, but we dont, we have two, so we have to learn to multi-task (especially in magick) with what we got. For this, THIS Magus offers good advice - the Juggler.
