Great Way of the Spirit

[Nau7ik]

Wonderful! Thanks to all of you! It seems I wasn’t as off as I thought I was. I was getting the sense that the female could represent the Higher Self, who is pictured as feminine in Kabbalah, the Neshamah.

The four creatures indeed suggest the four elements, our correspondes are different but we recognize that it’s intended to represent the four elements with the dove as spirit in the middle, suggesting the Pentagram, spirit over matter. The human is Aquarius-air, the Lion is Leo-Fire, the Ox is Taurus-Earth, and the Eagle is Water-Scorpio. The dove is Akasha, spirit. I didn’t count the flowers, but there are 12 there which is obviously referring to zodiac. And then the three petals suggesting the mind body and spirit in harmonious equilibrium. (The Chiaoth haKadesh, the Holy Living Creatures at each portion of the sphere of the zodiac.)

So then, the female represents the Intuitive Mind which plucks the melody of our Being, by the Hand of the Creator (contact with Intelligent Infinity). The Intuitive Mind requires the balance of the mind and body for it to descent. If we consider the Significator of Spirit, the Sun, we can see that this is so. The Great Way is “thusly dipped in the limitless current of time/space.”

This is a beautiful and deep card!
