Keep spamming your basic attacks while dodge rolling away from the unblockable fissure attacks to build up your Ancient Magic gauge. As soon as you get one blue bar, cast an Ancient Magic to deal significant damage to the Guardian.
Ancient Magic Effects and How to Get
The Pensieve Guardian has an unblockable orb attack, but you can interrupt it by casting a spell that's the same color as the orb or by doing an Ancient Magic Throw using one of the nearby vases.
Make sure to have at least one Control, Force, and Damage spell equipped to have all colors ready. Cast the spell type that matches the orb's color.
You can stun the Guardian with Ancient Magic or by destroying an orb. While it's briefly stunned, it's vulnerable to attacks. Attack it then.
However, shortly after, you will see a blue circle around it, indicating that the Guardian is starting to recover. Back away until you leave the circle, as the circle indicates the area of effect of his next unblockable attack.
