The Thoth Tarot-Ace of Cups:

If you have any knowledge of the latest in Astrophysics, you may understand that Kether is the "Dark energy that becomes-Dark Matter" and "pushes the Universe along, as Kether is the Will that pushes Plasma along which is how we think we understand it; However, both are really not understood by us. Kether, the Crowning Source of All, is not known to us objectively, but its presence is subjectively understood as a movement within all that moves; an invisible thermodynamic energy, a beginning of vibration/frequency.

Again, the 4 Aces, are attributed to Kether and they represent the most pure forms of energy in essence rather than form. Each is a specific type, and density of Energy Essence that we call the "seed" of Pythagorean  and/or Alchemical Elements.

THE ACE OF CUPS:

Is Kether in Briah, the Creative World, depicting the influence of Kether on the Mental Level. The Ace of Cups is the Root Powers of Water, an element used to symbolize the Unconsciousness, intuition, imagination, and emotions when in combination with Fire, which is known as Water's Consort.

The Thoth Tarot Version of this Card shows the wave action characteristic of physical water implying the activity that encloses and directs pure consciousness, as the Womb of consciousness is the Universal Collective Unconscious and/or The Divine Creative. As the Universe of Energy is woven out of waves of consciousness, and/or ideas that are understood.

Thus, the Web in the background. The Feminine that Weaves this Web of frequencies and/or Microwaves of Self radiated from the Core or Root of Self, the Plasmic Galactic Center of the Milky Way., was known to many nations of Native Americans as Spider Woman.

The White light/fluid descending into the Ace of Cups, was called the Gluten, by Aleister Crowley.

The Ace of Cups and Crowley’s "Gluten": A Divine Alchemy

In Aleister Crowley’s esoteric system, rich with symbolism and mystical insight, the Ace of Cups holds a profound secret: the descending white light, which he poetically referred to as "gluten." But what did Crowley mean by this evocative term, and how does it deepen our understanding of the Ace of Cups?

The Binding Essence of Life

Crowley’s use of the word "gluten" is not random; it serves as a metaphor for the universal essence that binds spirit and matter, a kind of cosmic glue. This "gluten" is the generative medium through which divine energy—the white light descending into the cup—takes form and becomes accessible within the material realm. It is the symbolic bridge between the infinite, spiritual source and the finite world of manifestation.

The Ace of Cups: A Vessel of Divine Receptivity

In the Thoth Tarot, the Ace of Cups represents the purest essence of the element of Water, the domain of emotions, intuition, and the unconscious. The cup is a sacred vessel, overflowing with divine potential. The white light pouring into it is the creative force of spirit, descending from Kether, the Crown Sephirah of the Qabalistic Tree of Life. This light symbolizes divine love, inspiration, and the seed of creation.

The "gluten" serves as the binding agent in this mystical process. It is the spiritual essence that "coagulates" the divine light, enabling it to take form in the watery, emotional, and intuitive realm of the Ace of Cups. Crowley’s alchemical choice of the term reflects the transformational nature of this process—the infinite becoming finite, the formless becoming form.

The Hermetic and Qabalistic Connection

From a Qabalistic perspective, the Ace of Cups reflects Kether’s pure plasmic energy as it begins to pour into the realm of Water. This descent represents the initial stages of creation, where the divine spark becomes the foundation of all subsequent emanations. The gluten symbolizes this connection—the alchemical and mystical medium through which the divine interacts with the world.

For the practitioner, this card is a reminder of the boundless love and inspiration flowing from the cosmos into our own lives. It invites us to become vessels, much like the cup itself, receptive to the divine and capable of manifesting its light in the world.

Meditating on the Ace of Cups

To work with the Ace of Cups is to engage with this alchemy of spirit and matter. Reflect on how the white light—the divine energy—flows into and through you. How do you act as a vessel for love, creativity, and inspiration? How do you bind the infinite with the finite in your daily life? Crowley’s gluten challenges us to see this process as both mystical and deeply practical, a sacred alchemy occurring within us at every moment.

The Cup is the Psyche Womb of Form and/or the "Holy Graäl" ("Holy Grail"), and on the Thoth Tarot, emerges from the Lotus (Crown) implying the idea or root power of Womb,the seed of the concept of conception. Therefore, the Ace of Wands is the root power of Phallus and/or ejaculation. The Ace of Cups is a symbol for the-Yoni Moon, as the Ace of Wands is symbolic of the Phallus- Sun.

Seen on the Thoth Tarot- Ace of Cups, the dark Sea of Binah supports the Two in One Lotuses that fill the cup with Life Fluid/ Gluten or even "Mother's Milk", be it symbolized, by water, milk, wine or alchemical Gluten. Here, the Milky Way Galaxy is beginning to form. The Glowing sun rising out of the fluid of the Cup, is the Central Core Photon Star, that is in the Center of the Milky Way Galaxy and is the Father of all Photons and therefore, of our Souls. Two in One, is the realization of the Womb and Phallus as an root power of multiplicity.

The Qabalistic- ACE OF CUPS, represents the emotional world of "feeling" and/or intuition that resides in the Unconscious; the time of Summer and the Space of East. This is the symbol of receptivity, psychism, instincts, fears, memories, desires, dreams, fantasy, and all the other aspects of the subconscious. This is the essence of imagination, what I call "the womb-with-a -view", for in her ideas are gestated in "Understanding", which conceives all things.

The colors of the Ace of Cups are those of water, lakes, ponds, oceans, rivers, rain and the blood. If you remember your biology, blood is blue until it is oxidized (You may have notice your blue veins). This is the Holy Grail sitting within the emotional nature (would be a fitting symbol for the Emotional Body of our Aura as represented by the blue cup). It is the conscious state of emotional integrity, as represented by the double rainbow on the Thoth Card. The inside and outside are without dichotomy. As above so below can also be seen here.

The Ace of cups also symbolizes the ability to nurture one's-self with the same capacity as one gives out to others. Also seen on the Thoth Graäl, are the Three rings of " Kings Solomon's key" and a stylistic rendition of the Chakras and serpent and,or spiral forces of life in the human body.

broken image

The concept of the three rings of King Solomon’s Key refers to symbolic structures or frameworks associated with the ancient grimoire tradition of the Key of Solomon (Clavicula Salomonis), a text attributed to the biblical King Solomon. While there isn’t an explicit mention of "three rings" in the Key of Solomon itself, the idea can be interpreted through the esoteric, magical, and symbolic frameworks associated with Solomonic magic. Here's an explanation of how the "three rings" might be understood in this context:

1. The Outer Ring: The Physical World (Material Realm)

The first ring represents the physical and material domain, the world we perceive with our senses. In Solomonic magic, this corresponds to the tools, rituals, and physical implements used in ceremonial practice. Items such as pentacles, wands, swords, and magical circles are used to create a sacred space and channel energy effectively.

  • Symbolism: The outer ring is the boundary that separates the sacred from the profane. It acts as a shield and container for spiritual work.
  • Function: It grounds the practitioner in the material realm, ensuring stability and focus during rituals.

2. The Middle Ring: The Mental and Astral Planes (Consciousness)

The second ring symbolizes the mental and astral planes, the realms of thought, imagination, and intention. This is the space where the magician’s will interacts with the spiritual forces. It represents the bridge between the physical world and the divine.

  • Symbolism: The middle ring is the mediator, where the magician aligns their consciousness with the celestial or divine will. This is where visualization, meditation, and focused intention occur.
  • Function: Through the middle ring, the practitioner learns to control their mind and emotions, directing them toward the desired goal.

3. The Inner Ring: The Divine Source (Spiritual Core)

The third and innermost ring represents the divine source, the ultimate unity from which all creation emanates. In the context of Solomonic magic, this corresponds to the direct connection with God, the angels, and the higher spiritual powers that the magician seeks to invoke and align with.

  • Symbolism: The inner ring is the sacred heart of the practice, embodying divine wisdom, power, and love. It represents the ultimate goal of the magician: unity with the divine.
  • Function: The practitioner’s invocation of divine names and the alignment with higher spiritual forces are acts of attunement with this inner ring.

Esoteric Interpretation of the Rings

The three rings can also be linked to the Qabalistic Tree of Life:

  1. Outer Ring: Corresponds to the lower Sephiroth (Malkuth, Yesod), dealing with the material and astral worlds.
  2. Middle Ring: Relates to the middle Sephiroth (Tiphareth), where the magician's consciousness harmonizes with divine energies.
  3. Inner Ring: Represents Kether, the Crown, the direct connection to the infinite and divine.

King Solomon’s Magic and the Rings

In legend, King Solomon’s magical ring allowed him to command spirits and access divine wisdom. If we see the "three rings" metaphorically, it can represent Solomon’s mastery over the three levels of existence:

  1. Control over physical reality (outer ring).
  2. Command of spiritual and mental forces (middle ring).
  3. Unity with divine will and wisdom (inner ring).

This layered framework of the "three rings" can serve as a powerful tool for understanding the holistic nature of ceremonial magic, where the material, mental, and spiritual realms are interconnected and harmonized.

The blue Grail, is Wisdom and the Cups color symbolizes, Compassion, Reason and Discipline, the three ingredients of Love, making it apparent that Love and Wisdom are in union as a flow of nurturing, healing, supporting emotional force (as seen by the radiance entering the cup). Love and Wisdom in equal balance.

The serpent handles of the cup symbolize the regenerative nature of this balance, as the serpent sheds it's skin to transform into a more expanded being; our Soul also sheds personalities, in order to transform.

The lotus base represents the trusting heart who never over-extends itself emotionally but unfolds itself naturally without resistance or holding itself back. In fact, this Love-Wisdom union is the woven fabric of Life itself, as symbolized by the web of Spider Woman (Native American Mother of the Universe) that is seen behind the cup. These web strings can also be compared to the Irish/ Celtic God, Dagda's harp, known as Uaithne,

Scholars have little doubt that the Christianized version of the Arthurian "Holy Graäl" (Grail) legend, had no authentic tradition of the lost wine- cup of Christ. Rather it was related to the "Cauldron of Daga" the Coire Anseasc.

broken image

The vessel was entirely pagan and feminine as another transformation of the Celts' Cauldron of Regeneration. This Grail was the symbolic female-body symbol of life-giving blood. As in Hindu symbols, the cup was often shown in conjunction with a male symbol, just as the Grail appeared in conjunction with the holy lance.

The ancient Celtic cauldron that is often associated with Druidic traditions is known as the "Cauldron of Dagda" or the "Cauldron of Plenty." Dagda, also known as "The Good God," is a prominent figure in Irish mythology and is often depicted as a wise and powerful deity.

The Cauldron of Dagda (Coire Anseasc) is one of the most famous possessions of the Celts and has several mystical properties:

  1. Abundance and Nourishment: The cauldron is said to be bottomless and capable of providing an endless supply of food and sustenance. It symbolizes abundance and the capacity to provide for all those in need.

  2. Healing and Rejuvenation: The cauldron is also associated with healing and rejuvenation. It could bring the dead back to life and restore them to full health.

  3. Transformation: The Cauldron of Dagda has the power to transform ordinary items into extraordinary ones, emphasizing the theme of transformation and renewal.

  4. Wisdom and Inspiration: In some interpretations, the cauldron is seen as a source of wisdom and inspiration. It is a symbol of the knowledge and insight that can be gained through the Druidic tradition.

The Cauldron of Dagda is a significant symbol in Celtic mythology and Druidic lore, representing themes of abundance, healing, transformation, and wisdom. It is often regarded as a sacred and mystical artifact within these traditions.

The Cauldron of Dagda (Coire Anseasc) as a mythological and symbolic object, does not have the physical location where it was found, as it exists primarily in the realm of Celtic mythology and folklore. It is a legendary and mystical artifact associated with the mythology of Ireland and the Druidic traditions of the Celts.

In Irish mythology, stories and legends about the Cauldron of Dagda are part of the folklore and oral traditions passed down through generations. These tales are not accounts of archaeological discoveries but rather elements of the rich mythological heritage of the Celtic peoples.

The concept of the Cauldron of Dagda is symbolic and metaphorical, representing themes of abundance, healing, transformation, and wisdom within the context of Celtic mythology and Druidic beliefs. It is not a physical object that was discovered in a specific location but rather a legendary symbol deeply woven into the cultural and spiritual narratives of the Celts. All the mystical properties of the "Cauldron of Daga" are the same properties associated with the Gail, often the Christians revised most of the ancient pagan belief and claimed it as their own.

The Dagda, known as the "Good God" (An Dagda), is one of the most prominent and multifaceted deities in Irish mythology. As a central figure in the mythological cycle, particularly in tales of the Tuatha Dé Danann, he embodies abundance, wisdom, strength, and the balance of life’s dualities. His role as the "Good God" does not imply moral perfection but rather his mastery over many domains, making him a figure of immense capability and versatility. Here’s a deeper exploration of the Dagda’s attributes and significance:

Name and Etymology

  • The title "Dagda" translates roughly as "Good God" or "Great God." The term "good" in this context refers to his proficiency and excellence in all that he does rather than moral virtue.
  • His other names and epithets—Eochaid Ollathair ("Horseman, Great Father"), Ruadh Rofhessa ("Red One of Great Knowledge")—highlight his roles as a father figure, a wise leader, and a powerful warrior.

Attributes and Domains

  1. Abundance and Prosperity
    The Dagda is associated with fertility and abundance, ruling over the land’s prosperity and ensuring the well-being of his people. He wields a magical cauldron called the Coire Anseasc (Cauldron of Plenty), which is said to never run empty and provide sustenance for all. This symbolizes his role as a provider and nurturer.

  2. Wisdom and Knowledge
    The Dagda is a master of wisdom, often described as a druid, possessing vast knowledge of the natural world and magical arts. His harp, the Uaithne, is a symbol of order and control, able to summon the seasons and elicit emotions from those who hear it.

  3. Strength and Protection
    As a warrior, the Dagda wields a massive club, the Lorg Mór (Great Club), which has the dual power to kill with one end and revive life with the other. This duality underscores his role as both a destroyer and a healer, reflecting the cycles of life and death.

  4. Fertility and Sexuality
    The Dagda’s virility is an essential part of his characterization. He is often depicted engaging in unions with goddesses, such as Boann and Morrígan, symbolizing the balance of masculine and feminine forces and the renewal of life and the land.

  5. Leadership and Sovereignty
    The Dagda serves as a chief or leader of the Tuatha Dé Danann. He is portrayed as a father figure to both the divine and mortal realms, embodying the qualities of a wise and just ruler.

The Dagda in Modern Understanding

In contemporary Celtic spirituality and neopagan practices, the Dagda is often revered as a deity of abundance, wisdom, and protection. His myths resonate as stories of balance, leadership, and the interconnectedness of all life.

Here are more details on specific myths or how to integrate his symbolism into modern Western Hermetic practices.

Key Myths of the Dagda

1. The Dagda and the Morrígan: A Union of Power and Sovereignty

In preparation for the Second Battle of Moytura, the Dagda meets the Morrígan, the goddess of war and sovereignty, at a river. They unite in a ritualistic and sexual act, symbolizing the harmony between the forces of life, death, and sovereignty. This union ensures the Morrígan’s aid in the battle, tipping the scales in favor of the Tuatha Dé Danann.

  • Symbolism: This story highlights the Dagda’s role as a balancer of cosmic forces and the sacred union necessary for success and renewal.
  • Modern Practice: Meditate on the balance between masculine and feminine energies in your own life. Rituals involving water (symbolizing the river) can be used to invoke harmony and strength.

2. The Dagda’s Harp: Uaithne and the Seasons

The Dagda possesses a magical harp called Uaithne, which can summon the seasons and evoke powerful emotions. During one tale, the Fomorians steal the harp, but the Dagda retrieves it by calling it back to him with a spell. The harp then plays three magical strains:

  • The Góltraí (Song of Sorrow): Evoking tears and grief.
  • The Geantraí (Song of Joy): Evoking laughter and happiness.
  • The Suantraí (Song of Sleep): Evoking rest and calm.
  • Symbolism: This myth symbolizes the control of time, emotions, and the natural order through harmony and understanding.
  • Modern Practice: Use music in meditation or ritual to connect with different aspects of your emotional or seasonal cycles. Harps or other stringed instruments can invoke the Dagda’s presence.

3. The Dagda’s Cauldron: The Coire Anseasc

The Coire Anseasc (Cauldron of Plenty) is one of the Four Treasures of the Tuatha Dé Danann. It is said to provide endless nourishment, symbolizing abundance and the sustenance of life. Unlike other myths, where abundance is conditional, the cauldron freely provides for all who approach it with a pure heart.

  • Symbolism: The cauldron represents not only physical abundance but also the overflowing spiritual and emotional resources available to us when we align with divine energies.
  • Modern Practice: Use a bowl or cauldron as a centerpiece for gratitude rituals. Fill it with symbols of abundance, such as fruits, coins, or written affirmations, and reflect on the resources available to you.

4. The Dagda’s Great Club: Lorg Mór

The Dagda wields a massive club, the Lorg Mór, which can kill with one end and revive with the other. This duality represents his dominion over life and death and his ability to bring balance to these forces.

  • Symbolism: The club represents transformation and the cycles of destruction and renewal that are inherent in life.
  • Modern Practice: Carry a symbolic tool (such as a small wand or staff) in rituals focused on letting go of the old and welcoming the new. Reflect on the duality of creation and destruction in your life.

Integrating the Dagda’s Symbolism into Modern Practices

1. Seasonal Rituals

Since the Dagda controls the seasons through his harp, he is an excellent deity to honor during the solstices and equinoxes. Create a ritual where you acknowledge the passing season and welcome the new one, calling upon the Dagda to harmonize the transition.

2. Fertility and Prosperity Work

Invoke the Dagda when seeking abundance or fertility, whether for creative endeavors, relationships, or physical prosperity. Offerings of food (bread, honey, or dairy) can be made to a symbolic cauldron as part of the ritual.

3. Music and Emotional Healing

Use music to connect with the Dagda’s emotional wisdom. Play or listen to music that aligns with your current emotional needs: calming, uplifting, or cathartic. Dedicate this practice to the Dagda, asking for guidance in processing and balancing your emotions.

4. Sacred Union Practices

In relationships or within yourself, the Dagda’s union with the Morrígan symbolizes balance and mutual empowerment. Create rituals focused on partnership, whether romantic or platonic, to strengthen bonds and align energies.

5. Personal Leadership and Sovereignty

As a leader of the Tuatha Dé Danann, the Dagda exemplifies wise and compassionate leadership. Invoke him in times when you need to make decisions or act as a guide for others. Carry an emblem of his (like a small cauldron or club charm) as a reminder of his wisdom and strength.

Daily Invocation of the Dagda

For a simple daily connection with the Dagda, try this prayer:

"O Great Dagda, Master of Abundance and Keeper of Wisdom,
Pour your light into my cup,
Guide my hand with your strength,
Balance my heart with your joy,
And lead me to live with purpose and harmony.
May I walk in your abundance and reflect your wisdom."

Here, Dagda is a beneficial Egregore whose energy will enable abundance.

The Dagda's harp, known as Uaithne, holds a significant place in Irish mythology, symbolizing the profound connection between music and the natural order. This legendary instrument was believed to control the seasons and evoke deep emotions, embodying the essence of Irish cultural heritage.

In contemporary times, several Irish harpists draw inspiration from this rich tradition, channeling the spirit of Uaithne through their music. One notable figure is Ailie Robertson, a renowned harpist whose work often reflects the mystical qualities associated with the Dagda's harp. Her compositions and performances resonate with the ancient themes of transformation and emotional depth that Uaithne represents.

By weaving traditional motifs into modern compositions, artists like Robertson continue to honor and perpetuate the legacy of the Dagda's harp, ensuring that its magical essence remains alive in today's musical landscape. I would recommend her music for meditation practices.

The legendary quest for the Grail, is a vast pagan epic, as depicted by its Cistercian ornamentations. In the later Christian story, every anecdote, and detail in this inspired work is merely a travesty of the Celtic Quest for the submerged woman/ Lady of the Lake and/or Dr. Carl Jung's "inner perfect woman" the Anima.

According to the Christian stories, the Grail had some very suspicious origins. It was carved out of a jewel that fell from Satan's crown (Kether) as he descended into the underworld. In many texts, the jewel was identified as the Phoenix stone, Lapis Exilis, Lapis Judaicus, or Theolithus (God stone). Its magic renewed one's youth or supplied one with inexhaustible amounts of food. [Spence, 246]

The connection to the Philosopher's stone or the magic Gluten is easily seen here.

Nevertheless, the Divine Feminine is the great Womb of all form, including the Plasmic microwaves and therefore, resides in all of us as does "mother's blood", for no child has any blood from the father. This Divine Anima is worth knowing, for she will release us from the fantasy of man-made identity. She knows her children, and they are not man made and therefore, have no identity made of words, from her love they are conceived.

When the Ace of Cups card is thrown in divination, it indicates:

  • That  in the period of one year you will experience  emotional integrity, equal balance in self-nurturing and the nurturing of others.
  • The Ace of Cups also implies the implementation of trust that can be experienced in relationships with water sign people in your life; Pisces, (February 21- March 21), Scorpios, (October 21 to November 21) and Cancer (June 21-July 21).
  • The Ace of Cups is a quality of the Magus (key 1 of the Trump) who is the archetype of communication.
  • The Ace of Cups is the aspect of being able to communicate feelings from a place of emotional integrity and trust rather than from a place of control.
  • This card represents the Ecstasy that comes with the Love of life in its entirety. As the Tao has stated,"..where there is ecstasy, there is creation. Where there is no ecstasy there is no creation." Maybe Ecstasy built us so it could be us!
  • A new attitude brings rewards.
  • in a period of One Year, the querent will develop a new relationship, or new awareness about existing relationship.
  • Is experiencing a new bust of empathy, emotion, sentiment or enthusiasm  This is a time for staying open and vulnerable in order to reap rewards.
  • The opening of spiritual, psychic, intuitive channels
  • Heart opening to the gift of Love.
