Arcanum 18 added kabalistically is 1 8 9, the Ninth Sphere, sex. Esoteric traditions affirm that the Earth has 9 strata or subterranean regions clearly in the ninth stratum is that which we could call the planetary nucleus, which is of an extraordinary density.

It is for this reason that the kabalists affirm that in the centre of the Earth...

In the middle section, a magician with the Staff of the Patriarchs in one hand and the Ansate or Tao Cross in the other hand.

People are lunar the Moon brings them and the Moon takes them. Let us analyse this detail the first seven years of the life of...
ARCANUM NUMBER Pvw
The departure from Eden coincides with Arcanum number 16. Eden or Paradise must be understood as sex itself. We left by the doors of sex, and only through them will we return. Arcanum 16 is very dangerous. It is necessary to awaken consciousness so as to not wander blindly. The blind can fall to the abyss. The Initiate who spills the Vessel of Hermes inevitably falls. The struggle between brain, heart and sex is terrible. If sex dominates the brain, the five-pointed star, the Pentagram is...

They became friends and Cagliostro told him who he was. He wanted to avert the Second World War, but as no-one took any notice of him, he went once again to Tibet, saying...
Tiphereth
Tiphereth is the Husband of the Wife, the Superior Manas of Oriental Theosophy, which is none other than the Human Soul, the Causal. It is that Soul which suffers, and which forms the very human part in us. We must distinguish between that which is the Human Soul and Tiphereth itself. It is very easy to confuse Tiphereth with the Causal. The Causal Body serves as the vehicle of Tiphereth. Some kabalists expect that the world of Tiphereth, the world of the Human Soul, or correctly said, the...

Arcanum number 15 is the pluralised I, which esoterically is called Satan. Arcanum number 15 represents Passion which is based in the Luciferic Fire. It is necessary to know that the principal defect issexual passion, lust. In the kabalistic synthesis of Arcanum 15 we have 1 5 6, the 6 is sex. This means that sex is the major force which can liberate man, but is also the major force which can enslave him. Arcanum 15 signifies the work with the demon the process of dissolution of the I. Eden is...

Geburah
Geburah is Rigour, the Law, is the Buddhi, the Spiritual Soul, the Valkyrie of whom that notable Spanish writer, Mario Roso de Luna speaks, is the beautiful Helen, etc. Geburah, the Buddhi has been considered to be exclusively Martian this is an error because in the world of the Spiritual Soul which is feminine, there is the Lion of the Law which is Solar. Thus in Geburah we find the rigour of the Law, but we also find the nobility of the Lion, therefore the Intuitional Buddhic world is...

In the number 8 are to be found the Laws of Evolution and Involution.

This Arcanum is the Fulminated Tower, in the Kabalah it is known as the Tower of Babel of which the Bible speaks. From this tower can be seen the fall of the Initiate, forming the inverted Pentagram. The sacred symbol of the Infinite represents the brain, heart, and sex. If sex dominates the brain, then this brings about the fall, the Fulminated Tower, the inverted five-pointed star, the Pentagram reversed, the man with his head pointing downwards and his feet upwards. He hurtles to the depths...
Daath Tantric Knowledge
Some kabalists stress the idea that Binah, the Holy Spirit, is feminine such a statement is erroneous. In the Divine Comedy it clearly states that the Holy Spirit is the Husband of the Divine Mother. So it is then that the Holy Spirit in turn divides into His Wife, the Hindu Shakti. One must know how to understand this. Many, upon noting that the Third Logos divides into the Divine Mother Kundalini, or Shakti, who has many names, have thought that the Holy Spirit is feminine, and have thus been...

Indecision

This Arcanum is called Indecision because the disciple does not know which path to decide upon. Seated in the upper part is a Hierarch of the Law with a bow taking...
ARCANUM NUMBER Bck
Arcanum number 4 is very interesting, it refers to the Cross with four points, the cubical stone which is the basis of the Great Work that which must be carved. Speaking about the School of the Fourth Way, we find that Gurdjieff, Ouspensky and Nicoll, have expounded that which they know, but the exposition contains many defects. For example Gurdjieff commits the error of confusing the Kundalini with the abominable Kundartiguador organ, and Ouspensky commits the same error. We must not forget...
The Hierarch
In this card we find the Hierarch wearing his chain mail armour, sup porting to the right the Staff of Power. The jackal mask he uses only when he is officiating, when he is administering Justice it symbolises the Supreme Piety and Supreme Impiety of the Law. In the waters of life one finds the Balance of Justice, indicating that the movements, actions and reactions of the physical body are based in en ergy. The number 5 is grandiose, sublime it is the number of the rigour of the Law, it is the...

Moon Venus Mars Saturn Neptune Mercury Sun Jupiter Uranus When, for example, we refer to the Moon, we should not think of the physical satellite, Moon. The diabolic sub-lunar region must not be sought in the Moon, but rather in the interior of the Earth. Now let's think about the Lunar Heaven this does not exactly mean that it is of the Moon, but rather of the superior regions, that is, molecular regions which are lunar and are governed by the Moon. It is a lunar molecular world which is to be...
Chapter Ain Soph
All creation emanates from Ain Soph, but creation is not equal either in essence or in power to Ain Soph. Ain Soph, through its divine, uncreated Light radiates from itself an intelligence, a power, which although it originally partook of the perfection and boundlessness of its Credo in having derived from Him, has a finite aspect. The Kabalah calls this first spiritual emanation of Ain Soph the ineffable Ancient of Days, which is the Being of our Being the Father and Mother in us. Ain Soph,...
ARCANUM NUMBER Rqy
The kabalistic synthesis of Arcanum 18 is 1 8 9, the Ninth Sphere, sex. If we add 9 9 18, in it there is a balance. One 9 is the positive aspect and the other is the negative aspect, but in essence, the number 18 is negative, harmful, the secret enemies of the Arcanum of Twilight. In the work of the Ninth Sphere one must struggle a great deal, because one must learn to sublimate the sexual energy here is the code, or Key to all Empires. In Arcanum 18 we find the dangers of initiation, the...

In Arcanum 8 we find the Eighth Key of Basil Valentine. He was, with out doubt a great Gnostic. The gospel of Valentine is admirable the eighth key refers to the processes of life and of death in the Philosophical Stone carved with the hammer of Intelligence and the chisel of Will.

Malchuth
Malchuth is the Physical Body, the physical world, it is very important to remember that the Vital Body is none other than the superior part of the Physical Body. They who do not accept that concept think that the physical body is a separate body, and the vital, a very different one. Thus they are describing an order which is slightly incorrect. Malchuth is the Kingdom, the Regent is Changam, the Genie of the Earth. Every planet gives seven races. Our Earth has given five thus two are yet to...
Netzach
The Mental Body is the donkey which we must mount in order to enter the Celestial Jerusalem V.M. Samael Aun Weor . The Mind which is the slave of the senses makes the Soul as useless as a boat which the wind tosses upon the waters. Bhagavad-Gita . Netzach is the Mental World, the Cosmic Mind, the Mind of the Human Being. There are authors who consider that the mind is Venusian I must disagree with this, because properly said, the mind is Mercurian. It is possible for anyone to realise that the...

This Arcanum corresponds to Satan, of whom the Bible speaks to Set in his negative aspect, spoken of by the Egyptians. If we break the number 15 down kabalistically, we have 1 5 6. We already know that the six is in essence, sex, which means that sex is the greatest force which can liberate man, but is also the greatest force which may enslave him. Let us remember the Constellation of Orion of the Egyptians it is evident that this constellation is governed by 12 Great Masters. Esoterically it...
