Thoth- Knight of Disks
The Sirian starseed Tarot- Master of Crystals
Chokmah, the 2nd Sepiroth and the first Male concept of force that represents the Willed Force behind the Master/Kings/Knights of Tarot and is both Wisdom and the Will to Force. He is the idea of male polarity. Where Kether is the Energy, the 2nd Sephiroth-Chokmah is the "light-switch" that sends it flowing into expression.
Now there are those who think that Male came first, or that Female came first; well let’s just say that they think only in linear time aided by our short-sighted physical- dogmatic cultural perspective on sexuality. The startling fact to some, is that if you come up with the idea of Male, then you come up with the idea of Female at the same moment. There is no male concept without the concept of female and vise versa. So the argument of whom came first, is null and void when intellectually talking about the upper 3 Sephiroth; the Supernal Triangle. The Entire Supernal Triangle is the I AM. Hence, Kether, is I and Chokmah and Binah comprise the Am. In other words, the entire upper triad of the Tree of Life, denotes simultaneous existence in formlessness.
The Will to Force (Chokmah) and the Will to Form (Binah) united produce the Will of the I AM; which is the way of saying the mating of I and Am conceives the idea of "Other" and/or Being and that conception of Self, becomes a birth as a - Me/Self-Awareness; the first of which is the Golden Child and/or the Soul. Our concept of sexuality is in need of adjustment before we can understand the One Energy that made itself into 2 (0=2) by the concept of I and Other. Hence the Self (I AM) is a collective of many Selves and a Hermaphrodite state of energy that both female and male in polarity. The Truth of you is "I AM"; what you think you are is pure assumption. Hence, after "I AM'" the "Me" is illusion .
In Qabalah, Chokmah is the 2nd Sephiroth-Wisdom and is therefore, also the force behind the 4 Deuces. The Personification of that force is represented in the 4 Knights/Kings. In other words, Chokmah's will to force, is at its most concentrated and dense elemental form on Earth and manifests in such historical personality such as Davy Crockett. As Davy Crockett's archetypal personality, one can see that the Knight of Disks represents the Lord of the wild and fertile land and as such is the King of the elemental spirits of earth; for instance, the Gnomes. The zodiacal attributes to this card are the last Decan of Leo and the first two Decans of Virgo.
Being that the Knight of Disks is the densest manifestation of the Elemental Yod force, he is the force behind fruition, and growth but tends to be slow. This powerful fertility is represented in this card by the use of the Stag antlers on the Helm of the Thoth Knight. The understanding of the mythical animal images of the middle ages, comes in handy here, as the Stag is the beast that ate the serpent (received wisdom) and in so doing sheds its skin, any illness and old age, just as a serpent does. So to make a long and wonderful story short, the Stag represents the Master/ Knight/King's power to regenerate as does the organic matter it is a symbol of; it also represents his/her majestic sexuality.
Many of us have seen the Fire of Earth, in its volcanic upheavals; However, how often do we realized that Volcanism is the Earth organically regenerating itself much like a phoenix? Therefore, the Fire of Earth that is the Knight may be fleeting, yet he is also the cycle of rebirth. On the Thoth knight card, the same fruition is implied by the oats or wheat on the fruitful plane that his horse is grazing on. Therefore, he carries a flail, used in grain harvest rather than a sword and his disk/shield is that of solid nutrition. By now you should know that the use of a Knight instead of a King in this tarot card, was Crowley's way of proclaiming the mystery of YHVH (Tetragramaton) , as explained in previous blogs and his Book of Thoth. Besides, his Kings are Battle Kings/ Knights, not courtly knights who are usually pompously displayed on thrones and/or as powdered Princes. However, the Knight of Disks, is the only Battle King who seems at repose and without a sword. Instead he is all about the production of food. His horse/charger seems to be grazing nonchalantly, in a wheat field while the Knight on his back, in a relaxed pose, with helm thrown back, signifying there is no conflict on the horizon, and all is at peace.
The Sirian Tarot-Mater of Crystals, represents the ultimate male authority. This Master is more about the inner "Buddha", an aspect of Self that resides in all of us as inner strength and mastery of the element represented in the Tarot suit. This Master has achieved mastery of his/her own progress, overcoming the ego-self (survival thinking) and reaching the pure consciousness of the Earth element. Mastery also implies the understanding of the yin/yang of pure spirit, the Divine Hermaphrodite. Therefore, this one has mastered the Law that is Love and loves under will. "Hence, the Thoth meanings apply to this card.

The Personality of this Knight of Disks/Master of Crystals person, is that of one who keeps his/her nose to the grindstone and takes little interest, if any, for intellectual musings, or the finer aspects of culture or civilization. Hence, the character of the King/Knight/ Master is not that of a Rocket Scientist and if ill defined, will take great interest in displaying his/her ignorance as a virtue while taking obstinate pride in his own lack of sophistication and subtlety. This is not to say there are no geniuses with the Knight of Disks/Master of Crystals persona, for such persona's also appear (ed) as: Napoleon Bonaparte, Cardinal Richelieu, Louis the XIV, Bill Clinton, Madonna, and H.P. Lovecraft, to name a few very intelligent personalities. However, this "nose to the grindstone" type, tend to take little interest, along with little respect, of intellectual musings of others or the finer aspects of culture and/or civilization. They are complete master's of their art. Hence, we have such Knight of Disks/Master of Crystals personalities as : Davy Crockett, Annie Oakley, and Country Western star Buck Owens, Porter Wagoner, Patsy Cline, and Jim Reeves.
