Thoth Tarot- 6 of Swords-Science

The complete interpretation of the Thoth 6 of Swords card is the perfect balance of all mental and moral facilities, hardly won and almost impossible to hold in an ever-changing world. The 6 of Swords is the science of the Spiritual- Mind-Body collective that is both objective and fair-witnessing, which is an aspect of our Psyche but not as often used as it should be.

The 6 of Swords- Science card is also called: Lord of Earned Success the Angels of the Decan are: Rehaayal and Yeyezeil. The 6 of Swords is influenced by Tiphareth, the golden Sephiroth, in the Astral-Formative World of Yetzirah. Therefore, being formative in Yetzirah all form begins.

Rosy Cross

The 6 swords, suggesting the form of the holy hexagram, all join in the center of the Rosy cross; a Rosicrucian Cross, which is the universal symbol of integration, synthesis, and blessing. This Rosy Cross indicates that the 6 of Swords represents the integrative mind that recognizes sources of inspiration that are sometimes unexplainable.

The Thoth Card also Represents the holistic mind which is symbolized by the circle while the crystalline diamond represents the clear creative mind. This mind can consider many thoughts at once (the many pinwheels in the background) and integrate them into a whole clarity that is objectively communicated in such a way as to present a new perspective that is otherwise unseen. Hence the association of knowledge gained through experience forms wisdom. This new perspective is suggesting a keen mind, with excellent communication skills, and one who is very curious and investigates both sides of an issue. Hence, the title of Science.

This symbol also suggests the Universal Collective Unconscious, the mother of all Consciousness. Here is the Mind that is both rational and intuitional; therefore, a mind that works on both "sides of the Mirror" and/or bridges the Macrocosm and Microcosm.

Mercury is seen at the top of the card and Aquarius at the bottom, symbolizing Mercury in Aquarius. Mercury is the winged messenger (clear communication), and Aquarius is the New Age (new perspectives) symbolizing the ability to communicate innovative ideas in such an objective way that they are easily understood and heard.

The Minor cards are all under the rule of a Sephirotic Intelligence. In the case of the 6's, it is the 6th Sephiroth Tiphareth- Beauty, i.e., the Soul or Sun (mental-hermaphrodite/Androgyne) of the Divine Creative. The adept will find the initiation of Tiphareth the first of the Greater Initiations into the meaning of the Truth of Self. This Tiphareth initiation is a scarifying of all that we know to be indoctrinated-self, small ego (microcosm), and life as we have lived it. Here the sacrifice is not relinquishing the much desired something, but rather a transition of Force, from that of the will of lesser consciousness to the Pure Will of the Greater Self.; "Thy will be done" rather than, the self-absorbed ego's "my will be done".

Mercury in Aquarius brings unique qualities to communication and thought processes. Here are some traits associated with this placement:

  1. Innovative Thinking: Individuals with Mercury in Aquarius tend to have innovative and original ideas. They enjoy exploring unconventional concepts and pushing the boundaries of traditional thought.

  2. Open-Mindedness: Aquarian energy fosters open-mindedness and a willingness to consider diverse perspectives. People with this placement are often accepting of different viewpoints and are curious about various subjects.

  3. Intellectual Independence: These individuals value their intellectual freedom. They may not conform to conventional beliefs and prefer to form their own opinions through objective analysis and reasoning.

  4. Social Awareness: Mercury in Aquarius is socially conscious and interested in collective well-being. Communication may revolve around social issues, humanitarian causes, and the greater good.

  5. Detached Communication Style: There might be a certain emotional detachment in their communication. They tend to approach conversations with logic and reason, sometimes appearing aloof or distant.

  6. Technological Savvy: With Aquarius being associated with technology, those with Mercury in Aquarius may have a natural affinity for and interest in technological advancements. They may easily adapt to new communication tools and platforms.

The air sign of Aquarius is ruled by Saturn, which tends to stabilize the fleeting qualities of Mercury. The positioning of Mercury in Aquarius, an intellectual sign, leads naturally to science and humanitarianism so success is the result of Saturn's work in this aspect.

Now the cutting power of Swords is turned toward the positive, and the Rose is resurrected after being war torn in the 5 of Swords that related to the Severity of Saturn/Geburah. In the 6 of Swords, the swords all come together at a point in the restored Rose Cross of 6 squares, which in his Book of Thoth- Crowley calls, “The Rose Cross at the central secret of Scientific Truth." Thus, we have the definitive meaning of "success after anxiety and trouble", for the Way of the Cross is suffering before ascension and the number 6 is the number attributed to the "Dying Gods", whom of which we are related. This is because our bodies die, but our Psyche/Soul is immortal and absorbs the experience of the personality and reselects another form to experience the new sum of knowledge and therefore "lives again". Hence, the "resurrection" that is also common to the dying gods' religions.

Scientific balance of Spirit-Mind-Body-the Trinity of True Self.

Here, Tiphareth shows the perfect balance and idea of the card, as all moral and mental faculties are perfectly balanced, won by significant effort, but hard to hold in an ever-changing world of political propaganda and commercialized morality. However, for now, The Spirit-Mind-Body union that is called the "Whole Being" and/or "Whole Self", are in equilibrium. The Swords are also displayed in the shape of Metatron's Cube, the symbol representing all creation.

The Lost Soul Tarot - 6 of Swords

The Lost Soul Tarot-6 of Swords is showing opposing directions of the pared swords.  The meaning attributed to this card implies transitions and success after struggle. Hence, you are transitioning and moving into calmer waters (emotions). Here a difficult period comes to an end. This could include the ending of an emotionally painful relationship, a desire to leave the past behind, and/or healing. Hence, travel is also often related to this card, as that is the often the action achieved by escaping or running away. Our thoughts declare our actions.

The understanding of the 6 of Swords place us consciously in our subconscious, the Original Will of the One whose god name is Eheieh, meaning "I Will Be". Thereby, elevating us above the emotions, and desires of the indoctrinated "false ego" that have caused us disharmony in the subconscious which should be under the will of the awake consciousness but is enslaved by "word hypnosis". Knowing this, we are then elevated beyond the false ego composed of words and begin receiving our true inheritance from the Greater Self...The I AM!

Lost Soul Tarot-6 of swords

The idea behind this card is that "troubles are behind" as we transition towards a new phase. The time has come for a change of mind/perspective. However, one being of a conservative nature will find that they are afraid of everything new. This card suggests that you must deal with your troubles, especially those that are about a trip you are planning to take.

When thrown during a reading, the 6 of swords, it implies that the querent is:

  • Objective, logical and prone to logical thinking.
  • Justice.
  • Showing strong analytical ability and displays logical scientific thinking both internally and outwardly.
  • In 6 weeks or 6 months, problems will be ended, because the correct, logical things have been done or are being done.  
  • Communication patterns are logical, reliable and promote problem solving.
  • There is a general acceptance of attitudes and belief systems that promote a rhythmic and cyclic lifestyle.
  • The ability to see things objectively in a new perspective. Here, the mind is watching itself and aids in passage from one world of conscious perspective to another.
  • Again, depending on the accompanying cards. When this card is thrown it indicates that in the next 6 weeks or 6 months it is important to look at things as they are rather than what you want them to be. 
  • It is important to be clear in your own mind so that you can successfully communicate innovative ideas or decisions in such a way as to be non-threatening and easily heard. 
  • This card can also indicate that you should make a special effort to communicate clearly to the important Aquarian people in your life (January 21 to February 21). 
  • The Science-mind is clear, sharp, and free of confusion, uncluttered with "should have beens" and "wannabes". It is a rare state of mind that is important to utilize.
  • Travel by water.

If ill defined by the surrounding cards, it implies:

  • Suggest confusion because of extreme mental activity producing conflicting thoughts.
  •  Ambiguity and indecision.
  • Mistrust.
  • Skepticism.
