The proper study of the Paths (Major Arcana cards) is the ascending of Understanding up the Tree of Life, as we are "below" and need to remember the realms of Pure Spirit and Mind "above". We Began Above, since coming "down" the Tree of the Universal I AM in order to become the in-form-action of Spirit, we can "make manifest" our Self-Information directly from the Psyche. Hence, the Soul/Psyche has had to make many sacrifices to "downsize" into more and more condensed forms of I AM. From Tiphareth to Malkuth our Mind had to compartmentalize, anima/female and animus/male, had to split into separate sexes instead of the hermaphrodite that is the Soul, the copy of this split is made manifest in our Left-male and Right Female brain. Then the instinctual mind of the animal (body collective) had to be adopted, in order to operate a physical-sensual body that is so necessary for information to become intimate form. We implanted our star/solar seed at the base of the spine, called the "root chakra or the "Muladhara chakra" all coiled up and ready to rise when the Soul/Psyche contact with the body is completed in a Melody of vibrations. This rising sun of the Solar Self then completely awakes all the genetics of the "God Molecule" and/or "Tree of Life" within the body. Each of us are a song of a multiverse of vibration and frequency.

Therefore, We are the Energy and Intelligence of Stars, not planets, and therefore, must understand the planetary mental structure as well as our own light- image making structure called "imagination". The experiences on Earth, assist us in our goals of a more refined understanding of Universal information patterns. Such as a microscope helps the biologist in a more refined understanding of a body's cell- structure and bacterial combinations. Earth manifestation, with its crystalline lenses and mirror reflected light, (the "I sight" of our senses), helps us see deeply into the microcosm of the Natural Mind, so that we better understand the Macrocosm of Self; of I AM. For Self /I Am is all there is (even our observation changes what we observe to what we "think we are looking at".) and all that we shall ever understand. However, with all this adapting and adopting, we seem to have become amnesiacs and forgotten the Solar Self/Psyche that came to earth to operate a condensed form of Self, in its Name of I AM. We must remember that the intense concentration of light into matter, has made intimacy with Creation possible and/therefore, intense examination of information- experience-which creates knowledge.

As long as our Divine Consciousness is functioning though a physical vehicle, this is where our serious esoteric work begins and ends. Because of the intimacy that the senses give us, we tend to forget we began in the Macrocosm as a Spiritual Being (spiral energy forming into a sphere of experience), long before we became owners of measured form. The body sense make us think we are trying to ascend beyond bodies; This is upside down thinking, for we descended from the Stars to become planets; to unite the planetary and Solar aspects of I AM. As souls, we know that without sensual memory of the subtle dimensions of the multiverse we would be unable to turn information into experience , which creates knowledge. Do to the indoctrination and dogma of the "few who wish to rule the many" we have forgotten our roots and the purpose for our becoming more and more condensed. The Universe /World Card represents the absorption of all that was experience, creating an end to the old data and the building/beginning of the new.

The Path of Tau-ATU/Key 21-The Universe, joins the crystallized world of earth, Malkuth-Meaning Kingdom, with the 9th Sephiroth- Yesod -meaning Foundation. This Intellectual Path is the first step in a journey out of the material condition that leads us to a greater understanding of the Personality that was designed by the Soul/Solar Self (Tiphareth) for each incarnation; before our man-made personality /ego and divided sexual identity, blinded us to our original Identity of Divinity; The I AM. The brain is a chaos of words and errant association. Our eye-dentity (identity) was never man made nor is it now we all are the "suns of goddess" and/or Solar Self Identity.

Dr. Paul Foster Case, the founder of B.O.T.A. who wrote the class text: The Thirty Two Paths to Wisdom (the number Thirty Two is the sum of the Paths and the Sephiroth) calls the Path of Tau (The Universe card) the “Administrative Intelligence" because it "directs and associates in all seven planets." The "seven planets" he is referring to are the Microprosopus-Hexagram pattern of the seven planets on the Tree of Life. Symbolically this path connects the earth to the Microcosm (Microprosopus in The Sepher Yetzirah-Qabalistic text) represented by the Hexagram which is the symbolic Seven Planets on the Tree of Life. Therefore, the Path of Tau, is both power and servitude as ascribed to the Palace of Holiness that sustains all things. That Palace, being the associated seven planets and the Path of Tau that connects them to earth. From the Western Hermetic Qabalistic standpoint the 21-Universe/World Card may be the most important card in the deck for it is the point where we begin the process of inner exploration and bring the Macrocosmic Self into marriage with the Microcosmic Self. Hence, 0 =2. It is on this Path that we encounter our own personal self-conscious, a personality that is all inside our heads- divorced from physical reality and living only in a fantasy woven for it by indoctrination and dogma. Here we begin the process of 2=1; a process of remembering the Divine Union of the Anima and Animus as One Hermaphrodite Solar-Self, instead of separate sexes.

The understanding of the Hebrew letter Tau (meaning cross), and the Path from Malkuth to Yesod, is rooted on the fact that all is Mind/Self. I know that as we are all sensually body oriented, we think that the Mind's realm of ideas, dreams, or thoughts, are somehow divorced from the physical; therefore, we have a dual concept of ourselves as a body and mind, yet all around us and in us is "Space" and that Space is the "Great Dark Sea (SEE) of Mother Binah and/or the Universal Collective Unconscious. The Qabalah teaches that all is Mind and yes, the body is "crystallized idea": Therefore, of the Mind just the same! Taking this a step further, all is the Spiritual Will of I AM (one energy)and the body is "Crystallized Willed information".

broken image

In the Mysteries, the distinction of Mind and Body is one of perception (brought on by senses), not an actuality. The Spirit and Body are as connected as the dreamer is with their dream. The pictures we see when we close our eyes, are a more refined form of matter, the images and energy forms which are closest to the physical condition: a condition that the soul is dreaming as itself. The concept of Yesod (Foundation) and the Astral plane of Mind, is based on the understanding that most of the Universe is unseen, in fact, our bodies are composed of the electromagnetic spectrum and seem solid, yet they are 96 % invisible. That means, that most of us are judging the Kingdom of I Am, the Earth and our flesh, with less than 4% of our minds, thinking that sensuality and/or "feelings" are reality! There is also an estimation comes from quantum physics, that invisible Dark Energy comprises 26% of the physical Universe, and invisible Dark Matter comprises 70% of our known Universe. Hence emotional sensuality is less than 26% of your Energy-In-Motion (you are Dark Energy who uses visual- light to "see itself"). Since Malkuth is the only sensual kingdom, we must internally travel the ​Path of Tau to experience the "Seven Palaces of Assiah"(Seven planets), as represented by the seven pointed star on the Star Card ATU/Key 17. In Qabalah, going inward means going up the Tree of Life, going outward, is going down.

the sirian starseed tarot- key 21-ascension

The Universe card was traditionally called The World and is the key of individuality, totality, and wholeness. To those of Eastern culture, this is the image of Shiva and Shakti; to the Christian, this is the image of the Virgin Mary with her foot on the head of the serpent. In the Spiral Tarot rendition of the key 21 as The World, we are shown the Divine Creative, as a hermaphrodite, spinning in the dance of Shakti and Shiva,

surrounded in the traditional oval wreath (representing the Vesica Pisces), and the many planets in progression towards earth--the dark sphere beneath the Divine Creative's feet. The background of this ornate card, shows kerubic winds being blown moving the stars about. This represents the "dark energy" that pushes the universe into greater and greater expansion. Also the kerubic forms for the Universal 4 elements, Man (Water) -Eagle (air), Bull (earth), Lion (fire), are visible in the 4 corners of this card. On the Hermaphrodites lower right is the astrological symbol for Saturn (time) and on her lower left is the Hebrew letter-Tau. All of which are also on the Thoth Card.

This Divine Creative image is surrounded in swirls and spirals that represent energy and frequency. Covering her Yoni is a complex triangle, whose top is the upward facing triangle with a bar, symbolizing air. Inside this triangular plane is a square (in 3d a cube-representing the Universe) and in that square is a double circle, with what looks to be flames coming out of it. Which arguably could be representing the Primal Fire of the "Big Bang", that destroys one universe to build another. Planes, establish boundaries for containment (time) and space, while depth is created by drawing a line from the three corners of the triangular plane to meet in the center of "space".

Many errantly think that the term "Ascension" means we are here to learn limited knowledge from experience and than go back to the "heavens" we came from. Truth is, we create forms from our own information, of Self, to experience that information as in-form-action. When information becomes in-form-action, it is now turned into Knowledge and the Knowledge of Self is progressive and/or an infinite journey of I AM. Hence, we have manifested forms on many other planets, and after earth is exhausted, we shall manifest I AM on many more. for we are the Suns of the Divine and carry the "God Molecule" to planets in order to manifest the Archetype of Adam Khadmon, the Universal "Image of God-dess".

Regardless of cultural interpretation this card symbolizes the Divine Androgen/Hermaphrodite that is both dynamic and magnetic in a perfectly balanced dance (life motion) of I Am. On the Thoth Universe Card, The First Wife (Lilith)and The First Husband (Python/ Serpent Force) are shown dancing in the Ecstasy of fulfillment, mimicking he serpentine flow of light (waves), which is known in the mysteries as the "first husband". The Creatrix is impregnated by the light, that she then encases/encloses light into Form within the Abyssal Womb, allowing manifestation of idea as "self".

Before I go on with further explanation of the Universe/World- Key-21, it would be appropriate here to tell you how to mentally "Walk" the Path of Tau. This mental walk, is called ​Skrying. Skrying, is simple really, all one has to do is focus on a card that is reflected in a dark mirror (symbolizes "the other side of the Mirror" ), allowing impressions to form from the "other side of Light" or even imagine themselves entering it as the Self who is reflected. This is somewhat like lucid dreaming, where you enter the dream and control the events. Here, one is projecting themselves into an inner vision by the use of a "day dream", projecting oneself into the Vision of the Card. Some may breathe deep and easy, relaxed in body, and light 2 candles in the periphery and mentally project themselves into the Key Vision, others, as do I, like traveling into a tunnel, imagine themselves entering the Visions, as the card grows ever bigger until entry and thereby, becoming a threshold to another dimension. At first, maybe boredom takes over, but soon the diligent student discovers that what they experience in this lucid skrying, is not of their own making. They often are astonished at the vitality, energy and spontaneous images that these Tarot "mandalas" of Self invoke. The Qabalist knows that all 78 Tarot Cards represent aspects of the One Self (The Fool), of whom we all represent as manifested Self-Awareness and the Dark mirror represents the "Dark Sea of the Great Mother Binah".

* NOTE; To make a dark mirror is to remove the glass and paint the back of the mirror black. Return it to its frame and you have a dark mirror. The candles make a gentle light, so that the reflected image of the card which is presented face to face with the dark mirror, is muted but bright enough to see and reverses the illusion effect of reflected light of this realm so that one sees the "truth behind the reflection" and/or the "other-side of the mirror". The flickering of candle light also simulates the dance of energy that is 0 that equals 2 and/or the dance of Electric (Male) and Magnetic (Female) forces that make the electromagnetic spectrum of light and therefore, the visible Universe.

In the Forces of Tau, is the information, the data, of all the accumulated ideas that went into the making of our world (s) of Malkuth. There is much to experience and remember here so discernment is recommended, as we journey back into our Divine inheritance, we must educate our "I's" in order to perceive our "I AM ME", and/or our Whole Self. The Path of Tau begins the process of knowing ourselves as we have been known into existence; an existence so dutifully produced by our Divine Creative’s Lucid Dream of United Motion and/or the serpentine Dance of microwaves. In fact, if the student of Tarot/Qabalah, doesn't skry these cards, they may as well be a deck of playing cards or be a charlatan that preys on superstitious minds for only monetary gain.

From the standpoint of Gnosis (knowledge), the Universe/World Key 21, may be the most important card in the deck, as it is the beginning of our journey back to Spiritual Self-Awareness: the inner journey so important to "enlightenment" and/or the Memory of Spiritual Self. On this Path of Tau, we experience our own personality consciousness, which is of our own cultural making, a reality that can be both frightening and gratifying as we realize that the small ego/personality isn't nor ever has been ourselves. Yes, we make our own reality and the Universe card helps us to travel beyond the self-absorbed sensual reality of our personalities, into the Higher Self reality that created our consciousness of I Am Me in the Beginning. Freedom of Choice defines our "End"; an end produced by the composite pattern of perspectives that often form our personalities.

Between the Hebrew letters of Aleph (fool) and Tau (Tav), (Universe) is the entire Universe, the Alpha and the Omega, the Macrocosmic-Microcosmic, and we must journey upwards from our Spirit's "ending" manifestation, into the Beginning....for they who know their end, know their beginning! (Nag Hammadi Library) Thus, the Path of Tau-The Universe, is a Path that can only be successfully traveled by those who begin the process of bringing their Personalities into a self-understanding balance. Of personalities, we have many,( all individual in Spirit- Fire-Air-Water-Earth) each represented by the lower 5 Sephiroth on the Tree of Life and for the sake of Knowing Thyself, they must be viewed at first, independently, and later as a wholeness which is the rationale behind the legion of persona's that we as Spirit have slowly condensed by the accumulation of more self-awareness (self-information) in the Transmigration of the Fool into the Manifested Universe. The Universe card represents the point where we begin the return to No-thing/Non-Space, from which we came. All for the purpose of "Above all things, know thyself" which begins another cycle of I AM awareness. The return to No-thing/Non-Space, is not an end but another beginning. For space exists only when you have a beginning and an end; a point A to point B. From one point in time to another point in time, is measurement, and therefore, produces space between the points. Hence, creation begins a new measurement of Self.

This may also astound the student, but it is on the path of Tau (The Universe Card), that one discovers the extent to which the process of inner exploration is assisted by the guidance of the "Angels", particularity "Archangels" ( Our ET family). The Family of Spirit is vast and many, and of that family, we are the Children of the Divine Coupling "with the Women of Men" (Bible); The Inheritors and/or ET's that came to Earth and combined their DNA with that of an earthly hominoid, establishing the "God Molecule" in Earth DNA/RNA making it possible for ET/Celestial souls to manifest on Earth. It may surprise you, especially since the Pavlovian indoctrination of your personality has defined you deficient, that to the whole of the Universe you are most precious as a new and more sensual experience of Self! The purpose of Tarot is to help you see, as you are seen by your Creator/Creatrix and wonder of wonders, you are not condemned but Loved without condition! Your mental choices are Universally supported! This is both magic and tragic, depending on how you perceive yourself.

One of the most important lessons of the Universe card, is that of Discernment, a process that can only be learned in the earthly realm of Malkuth. This gateway to the Astral-fluid levels of Mind, is the Path of Tau, and the Astral is the place of “Fluid thoughts", ideas, dreams, before they crystallize into manifestation. It is as if light were liquid, as if the mirror of your mind is not yet solidified, to reflect you in crystalline light on a dark moon pool. There is deception in the Astral, such as Fantasies, that may never make it into manifestation, and some you never want to, so be discerning, even though only through divination can we enter the "Administrative Intelligence" that balances an action that is shown on the Universe Card by depicting the Dancing Woman draped with the Caph/Kaf-shaped scarf (the blue fabric) while being surrounded by the animal symbols of the Four Elements of Alchemy. The Hebrew letter Kaf/Caph, means "Palm", as in palm of the hand and therefore implies containment. The Vesica Pisces, is the oval shape behind her, that holds within it a Torus, a multidimensional figure. The Serpent is "Microwaves" of energy, the grid around her is the Universal Matrix of stars that we are from.

If you have been keeping up with my blog, you may know that the Universe Card is a multidimensional understanding of the Cosmic Mind. After much study, one may grasp the principle that the entire Tree of Life, which is taught through the Path of Tau-The Universe, is the most profound concept of "As above, so below"; and is a genetic "God Molecule" that once awakened/ascended from the kundalini to the Crown, tunes us into our Universal Inheritance of Divinity. To a sensual body, this means "up and down", to the Infinite, this just means "higher vibration" and "lower vibration", a normal occurrence as energy condenses to greater and greater crystallization unto matter and returns to No-thing by becoming less and less dense; all of which is implied in the Mobius Loop or Torus Strip in the center of the Card, behind the Dancing Goddess as a Caph shaped scarf. Of course, energy frequency, ideas and Mind are inseparable, just as electricity and data in your computer are inseparable. Thus another axiom is attributed to the Tree, "The Know is in the Flow of Breath". That is why, when we mentally journey a Path, we often use pranayama breathing techniques, to help gather knowledge at the same time we encounter higher mental frequency; mentally piecing the membrane boundaries of frequency, allowing more and more information flow. Diligently skrying is more than just a moment of silent contemplation, it is also a gathering of I AM information through slow-deep, solar plexus breathing.

In mathematics, a Möbius strip, band, or loop (US: MOH-bee-əs, MAY-, UK:; German: [ˈmøːbi̯ʊs]), also spelled Mobius or Moebius, is a surface with only one side (when embedded in three-dimensional Euclidean space) and only one boundary curve. The Möbius strip is the simplest non-orientable surface. It can be realized as a ruled surface. Its discovery is attributed independently to the German mathematicians Johann Benedict Listing and August Ferdinand Möbius in 1858, though similar structures can be seen in Roman mosaics c. 200–250 AD. Möbius published his results in his articles "Theorie der elementaren Verwandtschaft" (1863) and "Ueber die Bestimmung des Inhaltes eines Polyëders" (1865).

I have discussed the "Will-To-Form” of the Great Mother Binah (3rd Sephiroth on the Tree of Life) who is the Life Conscious and which is Saturn in the exalted Supernal Realm of Atziluth. She is completely expressed on the Path of Tau, key 21-The Universe/World. The female figure of the " Cosmic Dancer" of the Universe, is the fullest expression of this Life-Consciousness and has been called Isis, the Anima Elohim, Scarlet Woman as well as, Saturn who gives life and destroys it and/or the Great Mother Binah. The mastering of Time/Space, is the Soul's purpose, and that mastery is shown in the Soul's Avatar of Sensual Measurement on Earth; The Human Body. We are to be masters of our own dream by becoming intimate with that dream. The oval ring of Stars that surrounds the central female figure on the Thoth Universe card, represents the Womb of the human female, as well as, the Cosmic Womb, known as the Vesica Pisces, (Abyssal Womb) into which the soul passes after body death. We arise from our death surrounded in a ring of stars, on our way to the Great Mother of Stars for each of us is a Star/ a demigod in manifestation. She then cleanses us in a baptism of love and sends us on to our next journey of Self-Awareness.

Know ye not that ye are gods- John 10:34; Psalm 82:6 .

Psalm 82 vs 6: I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.. John 10 vs 34: Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?. Genesis 1 vs.27 … So God created human beings in his own image.In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them

Hence, you carry the "God Molecule" to planets. From the Stars, you are!

Life, with its beginning, middle, and end, processes in waves or spirals (Spirit is a Spiral flow of Will-to-be Energy) which come back upon themselves. This circling back upon itself is often shown as a Great Serpent with its tail in its mouth. This is also the natural course of the Akashic Fluid (Astral Fluid) of Yesod where the Serpent Kundalini is coiled in its passive state, and uncoiled in its active state. The Universe Card is also surrounded in the Great Dark Sea, a reference to the Great Mother Binah, who is the Sea of all consciousness (The Divine Collective Unconscious) which on the path of Tau, is consciousness in the most dense and difficult expression. Again, discernment must be used when traveling the Astrals of Yesod, many who entered this Path, entertain themselves with extended fantasy and find themselves tormented by phantoms of their own subconscious making. The discerning traveler will supply every test of reason, and feeling. After a time of discernment, one will begin experiencing a process of learning, which is not of their own making. Verifying the images, by elaborate research definitely aids in this process. Hence, the Tarot.

  1. With fish hook ( reference to Star Card) in hand this Universe female figure hooks the All Seeing "I" to her "Will to Form" creating limitations and restrictions of the "I AM Me", while weaving them into a web matrix to dance on. 

  2. The regenerative diamondback serpent is representative of the need to transform, and is the serpentine force of universal fertilization that is often shown curled around the Orphic Egg from which the All is born. Coiled at the base of our spine is such a cosmic force, something we must animate in ourselves before we can expand and liberate ourselves from the past self- imposed limits of amnesia.

  3. The spiral hair symbolizes growth and evolution of Spirit's I AM.

  4. The diamond halo is the symbol for expanded awareness, such as psychic abilities etc.

  5. The Greek pantheon at the bottom represents the home of all the goddesses and gods/The Mind. When our body becomes the temple of our divinity, such a pantheon are we.

  6. The four animals symbolize, earth (Taurus the bull), fire (Leo, the lion), and water (Scorpio, the bird): and air (Aquarius, the human face). This shows us that it is important to express ourselves, physically, (Taurus), spiritually (Leo), emotionally (Scorpio), and mentally (Aquarius).

To some people, the Tarot is about prophecy and seeing into the future but to Qabalists, the Tarot is also about developing psychic abilities (Divya Sidhis, in Sanskrit which means: Magic abilities) by linking the multi levels of Spiritual-Self , Mental-Self, to Physical-Self. The more a reader uses the cards to find answers to given questions, the more that reader taps into the unseen currents of subtle energy/conscious that forms the Whole Self that is all around us, in us and as us. Over time, as I will attest, the seen cards are almost a redundancy since the answers are always deeply felt by the Unseen Tarot within. But again, our brain "thinks" by association and the Tarot Cards help us correspond to the Divine Images of creation.

The Path of Tau, is the ascending path from 10-Malkuth-Kingdom (bottom circle-Sephiroth) to the circle above it which is 9- Yesod-Foundation. Which is the path of the 21-Universe Trump/Major Arcana. We ascend the Tree of Life as we work from our material perspective (below) to our Divine Inheritance/Spiritual perspective-(above). We have manifested on Earth to achieve a more refined/intimate discerning perspective of the Universal Self through a personal learning- relationship with it. As previously stated, Our work with Earth is where all serious esoteric work begins and ends (Alpha and Omega)for as long as Divine Consciousness is functioning through a physical measurement/being. The Path of Tau, The Universe, is the first path out of the material condition of the survival mind (animal consciousness) and leads towards understanding of the Personality constructed by the Greater Self (Higher Self) of Tiphareth (Beauty) for each incarnation. It behooves you to remember that a persona, the root word of personality, is a Greek word for "Mask". Hence, your personality is really a mask you have woven over your True Face of I AM.

We must also understand that The Universe is a Path of Entry into the Astral, which "seeks to deceive". This deception is not intentional, it is simply a dumping ground for every dream ever dreamt and in no special order. There is a lot of image- data to be experienced as in-form-action. Hence, All image is a metaphor, a story we tell ourselves and therefore not the truth itself. Many people believe they are on one Path or another, when they are just entertaining their mental selves with a personal extended fantasy. We must apply every test of reason and feeling to the symbols we perceive on the Astral; we know it is not of our own making for it is racial "memories", and if we are actually learning from these symbols, by applying verification or corroboration through research we gain considerable knowledge. Discrimination is the most important lesson/virtue of Malkuth. However, by going completely up the middle pillar of this Greater Self, we cross the Abyss and meet the Great She, The Will to Form, who is completely beyond description. The Path of Tau, is the only one of the 32 paths of Wisdom that connects sensation to the rest of the tree. "As above, so below" is now established because we are the "images of God" feeling for all states of Greater Self-conscious! Sensation is the Energy Microscope that is needed for impeccable creation in the Microcosm. Discerning Impeccability is necessary to expand and liberate the living from their own Phantoms of self-identity, i.e. fears of not being good enough or "right". However, even though the body is part of the 1% world of physical matter, it is 100% of all sensation. Thus, we are fooled into thinking the sensation is us, which is an illusion in itself. So to begin with psychic development, we must give our senses to the Universe----so meditate on 21-The Universe card and expand your self-awareness.

When the Universe/World card is thrown in a layout the querent is:

  • Casting the circle which means they are mastering in some way the three planes of mind, body and emotions.
  • End of a phase, a completion of some work and expanding toward another.
  • It means synthesis, the matter itself, world and Kingdom.
  • More than any other card, The Universe depends on the accompanying cards, as it usually denotes the subject of the question.
  • Wholeness.
  • Completion.
  • Paradise regained.
  • Resolution of restraints.
  • Conclusion of Karma.
  • The wayfarer in front of the throne of the Divine Creative.
  • Recovery from illness.

If ill defined by the surrounding cards  it implies:

  • The street to nowhere.
  • The deceptive world of appearances.
  • Endogenous depressions.
  • Lack of willpower.
