Maybe it's because I tried Yoga for one glorious (not glorious) winter in 2009, but it makes no sense to me how any attempt to project the Tree of Life onto the human body treats the heart and the solar plexus as the same energy center. You can't both be Tiphareth. This bothered me when I did the Middle Pillar exercise every day. Saying the solar plexus is a yellow chakra and the heart is a green one makes so much more sense.

The Mystery of the Six of Pentacles

[doominterrupted]

In the heart where all paths meet, beneath the radiant sun, Tiphareth stands, a beacon bright, where the work of souls is spun. Beauty that transcends the flesh, a harmony divine, The balance of the macrocosm, in its golden shrine.

Tiphareth, where love and sacrifice become as one, In your light, we see the face of the eternal son. The middle pillar's heart, where truth and beauty meld, In Tiphareth's grace, the essence of the soul is held.

Here the serpent and the dove, in sacred dance entwine, A crossroads of the upper and the lower, by design. The sacrifice that brings rebirth, the phoenix's rise, Tiphareth, the mirror of the heavens, in your skies.

The Six of Cups upright generally represents generosity, #naïve happiness, and childhood. It can stand for you wanting to return to a happier time, whether it was when you were a child, teenager, or #young adult. Many times, these memories are things of the past, which #reflect the aspects of ourselves that have vanished. You may feel that #remembering these times is the only way to #feel happy. The Six of Cups appearing in a reading seems to indicate that while we may look upon the past with a #happy eye, we must avoid living in it. The #Six of #Cups can also mean that you are be returning to a #familiar place. This could be your hometown, an old friend’s home, a school, or any place that holds a lot of #meaning for you. You are seeking to #reconnect with people from your past. Bringing back old #memories reminds us of our childhood, a time when things were simpler. In the 6 of Cups- Pleasure, implies, well-being, and #harmony of #natural #forces without effort or strain. There is only ease and satisfaction, a deep inner warmth. The number 6, is #Tiphareth on the Tree of Life, and the number of the Sun/Son which is known as the "Christ or Buddha" consciousness. As the number for the #Sun (Son), which is in the #Sign of Scorpio on this card, places the whole #influence of the Sun in the suit of #Water #tarot #tarotcardoftheday #tarotreader #tarotcards #takeitasitresonates #somoteitbe (at Liverpool) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpnMYnWMq_i/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The nostalgia of your past, the past, what made you who you are today inspires every waking moment even if it no longer is and perhaps never was. Our perceptions of things are so powerful. What inspired you as a child has driven you to where you are today. Thank that inner child.

The Sun ☀️ 

Sun, Hod - Yesod, fire

Things are fluid. Just live in the joyous moment of now because with nothing ever being stagnant means you may enjoy every waking moment. Enjoy the change. Enjoy the new life. Enjoy what gives in every single moment and the moments that gives and gives while we live is the whole reason it is called the present. Do not stay complacent though. Use this energy to grow.

Lust 🍷

Leo, Chesed-Geburah, fire

The fire and passion of the past may burn up and eat you whole. Enjoy life, do not drown in the allure of the past. The sexiness of what was can overshadow the hope of what could be. When you wallow in what has happened you no longer focus on what’s happening. Be present in the moment

I- Ching TREE of LIFE

The I Ching Connection

Of the three systems which we sought to link to the Tree of Life, the I Ching will be the most difficult to successfully correspond. Its structure gives no apparent clues as to how we can assign hexagrams to the Tree. The I Ching is not divided into groups of three, or ten, or twenty-two. In fact there are really no divisions at all between the hexagrams, except for which two trigrams they are made up of. So we will work from there, assign trigrams to the Tree, and then tackle the problem of the hexagrams.

This cuts down our workload considerably, since there are only eight trigrams to work with. But nothing on the Tree of Life is divisible by eight. (The total number of paths and sephiroth is 32 = 4 x 8, but this does not help much. It would mean assigning each trigram to four different elements; there is not an obvious way to do such a thing.) The closest number to 8 on the Tree is 10, the number of sephiroth.

This actually looks rather promising. Paths are defined in terms of the sephiroth they join (i.e. Kether to Chokmah) and hexagrams are defined in terms of which two trigrams they are composed of (such as Heaven over Fire). So if we can successfully attribute the trigrams to the sephiroth, attributing the hexagrams to paths should be simple.

Unfortunately, assigning 8 elements to 10 places is difficult. There will obviously be some repetition which must be justifiable. We are also likely to have some duplications (i.e. two paths have the same hexagram attributed to them) but this may not necessarily be a bad thing. What matters most is that we find a system by which the eight trigrams can be corresponded to the ten sephiroth. And such a system was indeed found.

It would be pointless to go through all the failed attempts (and there were several) which preceded this discovery, especially when the way to arrive at a correct solution is so easily explained. We start by assigning elemental values (Fire, Earth, Air, Water) to each of the eight trigrams. This is straightforward; Fire and Thunder are of the fire element, Earth and Mountain are of earth, Wind and Heaven are airy, and Water and Mist are watery.

By the formula of Tetragrammmaton, Chokmah is Yod, Binah is the first Heh, Tiphareth is Vau and Malkuth is the final Heh. Knowing elemental correspondences for the Tetragrammaton, we assign the Fire trigram to Chokmah, the Water trigram to Binah, Wind to Tiphareth and Earth to Malkuth. This arrangement cannot really be disputed without arguing against the correspondences of Tetragrammaton, which work beautifully in all other circumstances.

A basic Qabalistic principle states that Air must stand between Fire and Water. Kether must therefore be the other Air trigram, Heaven, since it stands between Chokmah and Binah. Again, it is difficult to refute the sensibility of this placement. The "Air between" principle also means that Fire and Water trigrams must occupy the sephiroth to either side of Tiphareth. This is where we encounter a problem. Four sephiroth lie beside Tiphareth, but there is only one Fire trigram (Thunder) and one Water trigram (Mist) left.

The solution to the problem comes in realizing that Thunder is part Air and part Fire, while Mist is part Water and part Earth. Therefore Thunder goes well in either Hod (a mercurial region) or Geburah (which is martian), and Mist corresponds amicably to both Chesed (jovian) and Netzach (venusian). In fact there is no problem with assigning them to both. The lone remaining trigram, Mountain, must therefore be attributed to Yesod. The placement makes sense when we consider the traditional title of Yesod, "Foundation".

So the final Tree looks like this. To find out which hexagram is attributed to which path, simply combine the trigrams of the spheres which that path connects. Since Malkuth is Earth and Yesod is Mountain, the path joining them will be some combination of Mountain and Earth.

An interesting consequence of this method is that each path gets two hexagrams; for example, the path from Kether to Tiphareth is Heaven over Wind, but it is also Wind over Heaven. This is because the path goes from Tiphareth to Kether when we are at the bottom of the Tree looking up, but it leads from Kether to Tiphareth when we are at the top looking down. It is all a matter of perspective.

The fact that Thunder and Mist appear twice in the tree mean that some paths will have the same attribution from different points of view. So from Kether looking down, the path from Geburah to Tiphareth is Thunder over Wind, and Hod to Tiphareth is Wind over Thunder. If you look up from Malkuth the attributions are reversed. Actually, this is a useful phenomenon because it links those paths together in a unique way. The cards and Runes assigned to those paths will also be linked to one another.

[racefortheironthrone]

Do you prefer Phoenix as what was originally intended, as Jean at the peak of her powers, or as the cosmic force it became that wound up getting involved with Jean (to put it in the most basic terms)?

No, it always had to be both. If the Phoenix is just Jean Grey, another Omega-level mutant, the story ends in cosmic oblivion. Even as an Omega, Jean Grey alone can win a battle, but she lacks the cosmic transcendence of Tiphareth to remake the universe in the image of the tree of life.

At the same time, if it is just the Phoenix inhabiting an empty vessel, the narrative collapses into hollow stage play. To borrow the language of my earlier post about Cristological controversies, if there is only a divine nature and no human nature, there is no sacrifice and no salvation. As Claremont understood and Shooter and Busiek failed to grasp, with the clone retcon, you lose the core dramatic arc of a brave woman who grapples with divinity and in the end chooses to die a human.

IX: The Hermit

Tarot art by Matthew G. Lewis

THE HERMIT-ATU/Key 9, is known as the 12th Path of Yod on the Tree of Life and connects Tiphareth (Sephiroth called: Beauty) and Chesed (Sephiroth called: Mercy). In other words, the Path of Yod connects the Christ-Buddha intelligence to the Architect of Manifestation, that is Chesed (Mercy). This is the self-sustaining point of primal beginnings in the Universe. It is the coming of the Light of manifestation through the Microcosm; the manifested Universe in direct contact with the Source of All.

The Mystic Palette Tarot-Key 9-Hermit

The Hermit within works with the subconscious, granting intense inspiration that will orient us whenever we have lost our way. We may have lost our way due to inertia, word-brain noise caused by media-controlled word hypnosis or dishonest and desperate means of survival thinking (Hence, the sign of Virgo on the Mystic Palette Hermit's forehead). However, the mercy and compassion of Hermes/Thoth helps us forgive ourselves and reconcile with others while also giving us an introspective period of incubation where we admit our mistakes and placing ourselves in isolation that produces profound transformation. Thereby, receiving eloquence and a renewal of unclouded vision.

Yod

The Thoth Hermit carries a lantern while the Lantern is in the forefront of the Mystic Palette Hermit, this lantern implies intuitive knowledge coming from his inner light/ Sun/Soul of the Divine. Also, in the center of the Thoth and Mystic Palette Hermit's lantern is the sigil of the Great King of Fire, who is also represented by the Hebrew word Yod-the secret fire, which is the Hebrew letter assigned to this Thoth Tarot card.

The Hebrew word, Yod, also means Hand and the letter is shown on the bottom left of the Thoth Card and in the lantern of the Mystic Palette Hermit. Hence, the hand of the Hermit is displayed as the center both cards and shown. The image of the Thoth- Hermit is also bent into the shape of the letter Yod while being cloaked in the red robes of Binah, the Great Mother in whom he gestates.

Hey there! Me again (sorry), with a follow up question to your last answer (thank you so much btw, I managed to find a PDF of a couple of the books you mentioned).

I'm a little confused as to where I should start in terms of practices such as the Middle Pillar and the LB/IRP? I've noticed that the books all advise the beginner to start with one of them before moving onto the next but they're inconsistent as to which one it should be.

Do you have any advice on this please?

Signed,

Slightly more confused but less overwhelmed Brit

One thing you are going to notice is that every person will recommend a different set of exercises in a different order. Even within magical orders there isn't really a standardised curriculum- every branch varies according to the experience of the people at the top.

I recommend beginning with the lesser ritual of the pentagram, in its banishing form primarily. Twice a day, sunrise and sunset preferably, but first thing in the morning and last thing at night will suffice. Do this for about a month, or until you feel you have gotten it memorised and can perform it fluidly.

After this I would then move on to the Middle Pillar ritual- make sure you also circulate the energy or ground it or use it in some way afterwards. Not all sources will include that information, but depending how sensitive you are you may not want to walk around with energy vibrating through the central channel. It can be used to fortify the aura/body of light.

To circulate I tend to move the energy clockwise with the breath, so down the right hand side with an out breath to the malkuth centre, then with the inhalation back to the crown centre. I do this 3-5 times. I then cycle it down the front and up the back. Then I wrap it around the body clockwise like a mummy to the top and see it explode back down to malkuth with the exhalation, then back up again. Then finally I drive it through the body directly up the central channel, into kether, explode (fortifying the aura as it travels back down to malkuth). After this I focus on the Tiphareth centre for a few deep breaths and end the exercise. Tiphareth is the balanced sephiroth and sphere in the body- the idea is balance with these rituals.

After this move on to experimenting with the lesser ritual of the pentagram in its invoking form. I personally think invoking really opens up the practitioner to awakening their psychic senses. You may find banishing falls to the way side a little. Most people recommend invoking in the morning and banishing at night. I say experiment and see what happens in your own case- this brings me to the last point.

Keeping a magical journal is imperative. You need to be recording how well you are performing these rituals, what effects you notice. both within the ritual and within your every day life. Then you can track trends and see what is working for you.

I have also written some blog posts that might help you:
