For better understanding my lore in [[My Vtuber Concept]] ## Magician - Magician comes from French "magique" (magic). [^1] - In terms of Jung archetypes, someone deeply curious and interested in learning - https://www.shortform.com/blog/jungian-archetypes-magician/ - Intellect vs intuition - Difference from sage: - Magician has this active hero aspect to it, he utilises the skills and knowledge to the furthest degree. Sage/wise old man is more passive seer who guides the hero to do the active work, or guides a fool in his journey in becoming the hero. Sage is more like teacher, magician the one who already learned and now utilises what he learned. [^2] - The Magician is the most esoteric part of our schooling that filled us with the most passion. The Magician is a sense of personal power and accomplishment, but not power gained through conflict like the Warrior. [^3] - It is the Magician that impresses others with insights, funny stories and hidden talents. It is the Magician that is able to stand out in a bar room or business meeting when others are vying for attention. - If you are comfortable pulling clever observations and realizations from the unconscious and putting them to use then you are strongly identified with the Magician. ## Wizard Wizard comes from the word "wise". Philosopher, mastery, older. ## Mage Mages are also studious. ## Sage Already wise which is not the case 🤣 # References [^1]: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fantasy/comments/6qhid0/wizard_vs_magician_vs_mage/ [^2]: https://www.reddit.com/r/Jung/comments/orr8nl/hows_the_magician_different_from_the_sage/ [^3]: https://www.reddit.com/r/Jung/comments/rbz9mq/explication_of_the_magician_archetype_intuition/
