Thoth- Queen of Swords

The lavishly illustrated Thoth card represents The Greek Goddess/Intelligence that is Athena or if Hindu, The Goddess Kali or if Norse the Seeress of Truth-Võlva. Kali is shown with sword in one hand and head or mask of the Patriarchy in the other. The Queen of Swords shows a remarkable resemblance to Kali-Ma, the fearsome and fierce sword wielding, skull bedecked, Goddess of Life and Death of Hindu origins. This is an apt presentation since traditionally swords are called "the death suit" and heads are called the intelligence, while masks are symbols of the personality.

On the Thoth Tarot, The Creatrix Queen is sitting on a cloud, with sword and patriarchal/Archon mask (social egregore) in hand, as she is the mask-cutter. She is the fair witnessing mind who removes all illusion and sees the Real that is masked by culture, words, rulers, indoctrinated personality, and ego.

As a personality type, the Thoth Queen has cut through her own masks, roles, and defenses to retain her clarity and objectivity (The crystal crown). The child's head above the crown of clarity symbolizes her child-like innocence and curiosity as well as the "Golden Child" which is the Celestial Soul, your real personality and not the one you think you are.

In Tarot, the Queen of Swords represents the Liberated Mind with clear perception of idea; Water is intuitional and Emotional Consciousness and Air is Mind/Intellect. Therefore, this Queenly personality is the counselor or consultant for others and has the courage to seek counsel and consulting for herself when necessary. With this Goddess/Creatrix assistance we can readily place within our subconscious a martial, energetic, and capable talent which arms us and instructs us on how to direct our desires and passions. Hence, removing the masks of ruler-controlled words and removing emotions (emoted energy) from the subconscious and the false ego's control.

broken image

The Tarot Queen of Swords card represents the mastery of objective which is the deepening of a centered rational mind; the quality of mind that demands objectivity, authenticity, and abandonment of pretense. Here is represented the Intuitional-Observer within our consciousness which is detached from roles and assists us in reconnecting with our childlike truth.

The suite of Swords represents Yetzirah, the formative world. Often called the "mind's eye of deity", which is the Rauch (the intellect) part of the human soul. This is the centered Sun, of the bright and warm intellect in the human brain. Therefore, the image on the Thoth Card shows the Queen separating the higher facilities of the Intellect from the influences of the lower animal nature (subconscious-survival mind and/or false- ego) which in Qabalah is called the Nephesh, the animal soul which we must integrate with our Psyche by making the subconscious more conscious. Hence, the golden crown and the large explosion of Crystals of light above and around the head of the Thoth Tarot Queen of Swords in which the Golden Child/Solar Soul is conceived.

Aleister Crowley

Crowley had a core persona of the Queen of Swords, and often wore his head gear implying this Solar and/or Celestial Mind of the Upper Supernal Triangle. His fellow Queen of Swords personalities include Mahatma Gandhi, Eleanor Roosevelt, H.G. Wells and Stephen King.

In the zodiac, the Queen of Swords rules from 21 degrees Virgo to 20 degrees Libra. The Queen of Swords is assigned Water of Air, (Intuitional and emotional intellect) which is not only power of transmission but elastic as well.

broken image

The span from 21 degrees Virgo to 20 degrees Libra in astrology encompasses a portion of the zodiac signs Virgo and Libra. Here are some characteristics associated with this range:

  1. Virgo (21-30 degrees Virgo):

    • Detail-oriented: Individuals born in this range may possess a keen attention to detail and a meticulous approach to tasks.
    • Analytical: They have a natural inclination towards analyzing situations and problems thoroughly before making decisions.
    • Service-oriented: There may be a strong desire to serve others or contribute to the betterment of society in practical ways.
    • Perfectionism: There might be a tendency towards perfectionism, which can be both a strength and a challenge.
    • Health-conscious: These individuals may prioritize health and wellness, both for themselves and others.
  2. Libra (0-20 degrees Libra):

    • Diplomatic: People born in this range often possess strong diplomatic skills, seeking harmony and balance in their relationships and surroundings.
    • Socially adept: They tend to be charming and enjoy socializing, with a knack for making connections and maintaining friendships.
    • Fair-minded: There's a strong sense of justice and fairness, with a desire to weigh all sides of an issue before making decisions.
    • Partnership-oriented: Relationships are important to them, and they thrive in partnerships where there is mutual respect and cooperation.
    • Aesthetic appreciation: They may have a refined sense of beauty and a love for art, music, and culture.

Individuals with placements in this astrological span may exhibit a blend of Virgo and Libra traits, depending on the specific positions of their planets and other astrological factors. This combination can result in individuals who are both analytical and socially graceful, with a focus on both practicality and harmony in their lives.

The Thoth Queen of Swords reminds us that it is the very head of mankind, the thinking center of words, definitions, and all concepts of divisionism made by the Military Industrial Complex ruler's worded identities of separation, indoctrination and dogmas that deceive us, removes our identity from What is Real. Rather than the Real Persona of the Soul with perspectives of Spirit and that is born as a golden child of Higher Intelligence (Solar/Celestial Self), we have a personality of indoctrination that is reactive to words due to media run word hypnosis and perceives a cultural "reality" born of survival thinking that is under the control of the social egregore. These " racial group soul " thoughts fill the astral/formative world as assumptions of Self. I Am is your truth, but what you think you are--- is all assumption. Think well to be well and above all things, know yourself.

broken image

The Astral realm -Yetzirah is the Formative World of Deception where all emotional thoughts begin formation. Here the "creations of the created" abide, products of emotional belief, such as gods, demons, devils, nightmares, ego, and phantasms of fantasy. This falsehood must be trimmed off all perception by the sharp sword of concise wit, wielded by our Solar/Celestial Soul whose "surgery" then protects our identity from fantasy and illusion, making our way clear to total union of Spirit-Mind-Body.

broken image

When this "man-made mind of words" is removed, which is our own "Tower of Babel" that is the structure of worded self-identity, and/or "false ego", which is merely a simulation of the propaganda of the controlled society; an illusion in itself. We must remember that words are an individual description of a thing that is not "created by words". Definitions and/or ruler-manipulated descriptions of items and words that are designed to rule the imagined identity of an individual are not the Power that defines us. Imagination is your creator power; A power you alone must rule! I Am the Emperor/Empress of my empire of Spirit-Mind-Body!

broken image

Since words are always subject to individual interpretation, as a mask, they blind us to what is the reality of the day, to the moment. Removing the mask of words enables the True Conscious Psyche that resides on the "other side of the Mirror", to now transmit knowledge not made by words; knowledge transmitted via intuition and imagination. Imagination is the "Womb-with-a view"; the queen uses Image (Mandalas/pictures/tarot) as her expression of understood-idea.

broken image

This Image making Mind, is known as the 3rd Sephiroth of Binah-Understanding, on the Tree of Life. She is also the ruling intellectual aspect of the Queens and the small card threes. This "image maker"/Creatrix is also the reason we use Tarot to communicate with her, for manmade words have no reality in her Higher vibratory Intellect. Albert Einstein knew this Queen of Consciousness, the Norse Võlva, as "Intuition", of which he declared all his theories came from.

Völva

In Norse mythology, the Völva is not a singular goddess of truth but rather a title given to a female shaman or seeress who had the power to foretell the future, communicate with the gods, and perform magic, especially in the form of seiðr (a type of Norse sorcery involving divination and control over fate). The Völva holds an important spiritual and social role in the Norse world, closely connected to truth, wisdom, and prophecy.

Key Characteristics of the Völva:

  1. Seeress and Oracle: The Völva is often depicted as a wise woman capable of seeing into the future, revealing truths hidden in time. She would be sought out for counsel by kings, warriors, and common folk alike. One of the most famous depictions of a Völva is in the Völuspá ("Prophecy of the Seeress"), part of the Poetic Edda, where she recounts the history of the cosmos and predicts its future.

  2. Practitioner of Seiðr: The Völva practiced seiðr, a powerful form of magic linked to fate and prophecy. Seiðr often involved trances, spirit communication, and influencing the future. The goddess Freyja, who is associated with magic and love, is said to have taught seiðr to the Aesir gods, including Odin.

  3. Connection to the Earth and Ancestors: The Völva had a deep connection to the land, the natural world, and the ancestors. They could bridge the gap between the living and the dead, often communing with the spirits of the deceased to gain wisdom or insights.

  4. Independent and Revered: Although not divine beings themselves, Völvas were highly respected and often feared for their knowledge and magical abilities. They wielded considerable power within their communities, even though their practices were seen as mysterious or dangerous by some.

  5. Bearer of Truth and Fate: As an embodiment of truth through prophecy, the Völva was instrumental in guiding those who sought her out toward their destinies. Her prophecies were seen as unchangeable truths, often linked to the larger workings of fate and the Norns (the weavers of fate in Norse myth).

While the Völva was not a specific goddess of truth, her role as a truth-teller and a channel for divine knowledge is central to her position in Norse mythology.

As you can see, this Queen Card may seem a complicated card, not because of obfuscation but rather because of our inability to disconnect our identity from the ego-trickster word hypnosis program in our pleasure/pain indoctrinated and media-soaked brain. Therefore, we cannot see the images of Self for what they are. We honestly believe that words are knowledge and condemn or praise each other with definitions and/or titles! However, everyone or everything had to be "Defined into Definite Manifestation" before we could have ever seen it! Therefore, you already are Known into being, not a being who must be identified by those you meet. You are Divinity's I Am manifestation of sensual self-awareness.

In Qabalah, a Being is an immortal celestial, while an entity is a mortal being.

broken image

Hence, we are a Divine Celestial Being (Solar Self) who operates in our name of "I AM", the Divine Entity, we call the human body (the mortal avatar).

broken image

This may shock you, but the Queen of Swords reminds us that the earth is not a courtroom, where you are judged by your "peers" nor are you to judge them. Divine Creative Knowledge built you so it could work the material of earth into what is a "living" image of the Divine Creative and thereby, be intimate with what it creates. This gives intimacy to creation, as the Creative can now "taste, touch, smell, hear, and see it" in a personal way, which makes information into in-form-action and/or experience. Experience creates Knowledge and knowledge evolves personality and/or entity. This is what makes "Joy" possible as love felt brings joy while love unfelt brings no feelings of intimacy and is likened to a couple of magnets joining opposite poles.

broken image

I AM ME !

Therefore, through the trinity of I AM ME, the Divine Creative, of the Supernal Triangle-Trinity (upper triangle on Tree of Life), can now "play and share love with the Children Images" of its own creation! The Universe is God/Goddess creating its idea of Itself; 0=2. When the 2 get back together as 1, a third party resulting from the combination is created. i.e., a love- child is born. You are such an idea of reborn Self.

Love is the foundation of your being!

broken image

Creatrix and the Soul/Psyche: The Celestial I AM.

As an example: Let's say that the heavily indoctrinated persona's that are pleasure- pain trained, somehow think that if they yell with all their force the word Grass, and while throwing a "drama queen fit", that somehow grass will grow on the floor. However, no amount of emotion, in any reality, will get that identity of plant to grow on the floor; the floor and the realm of Plants fails to see any power in a word. For what we feel, is merely our own internal reaction to what we think the word means! But if one visualizes under intense focus, and in-form-action a lawn and, plants the seeds, and fertilizes them, all of which are actions of power and/or the ableness of experienced work, grass will grow whether one gives it definition or not; for grass by any other name is still a green leafy life-creation, that existed long before words...and was never created by mankind; Neither has mankind produced your Real Persona, the Soul and/or Psyche of the Divine Creative that you represent! Rather, you are of the Psyche that has produced Mankind! You are Anu!

broken image

Power is described as the "ability to do work", therefore it is not a belief system but rather an Active Dynamic of Creation. We are Solar Selves/Souls, and/or the Psyche that has constructed a ternary-mechanism for Work (Spirit-Mind-Body) with the ability to create in Light and Organic Material, our own self-images and/or "concepts of self".

Contrary to those who think a "sacred place" is outside the body, the body that we call human, is a Sacred Power Tool of Spirit/Mind/Light, that enables Our Energy Conscious/imagination to work ideas into manifestation (Transformations of the One Energy) in the Realm of Malkuth/Earth.; We are Tiphareth, the 6th Sephirotic Being, and never existed on Earth as a presence, until we commandeered one!

To the Soul, personalities are "artificial intelligence", a type of "autopilot" who accomplishes the will of Celestial identity by deeds/action, not by words. In the invisible world of imagination, we have been praised into manifestation as a clear concise idea of the Divine Creative's Self Image! On Earth, we represent the Celestial Identity of the Sun of God/dess! We are Light that needs a mirror to reflect upon ourselves.... such is the "World of Man", which is a self-reflection!

broken image

The principles of the Queen of Swords bring us to an understanding of how we are deceived by fear based/enslaved thoughts while showing us how to transcend deception by Knowing Ourselves as we are Known to Her, The Great Mother of ten thousand names: the form-creating Divine Feminine.

Truth is in the manifestation of an idea and not a reaction to it. The Reaction of an emotional "out-burst" to a word, is fear-based idea which really translates to "fear of rejection or vulnerability" and/or survival thinking of the lower animal nature and/or false ego that is under the word hypnosis of the Military Industrial Complex!

broken image

To reiterate: Qabalistically the Queen of Swords represents the Watery part of Air. Air being the represented element of Mind and Water represents the element of intuition and "e-motion" (energy-in-motion) which are the "currents" that move within the whole Mind and/or Trinity of Mind (Unconscious-Queen/conscious-Prince/subconscious-Princess).

The Queen of Swords is attributed to the elasticity of this ternary combination and the power of transmission that this Watery Air provides.

As shown on the Lost Soul Tarot-Queen of Swords, held up in front of her image is a sharp double-edged sword of intellect indicating the law of cause and effect. Hence, she represents on who is sharp witted, truthfully direct, and harboring unbiased judgement with clear boundaries. All the qualities attributed to the Thoth Tarot Queen of Swords, applies equally with this card.

broken image

in review:

She rules the zodiac from the 21st degree of Virgo to the 20th degree of Libra. In the Thoth Deck Tarot, she is enthroned upon clouds (Watery-Air), topless and wearing a gleaming belt and sarong, symbolizing the Great Mother of Consciousness. Upon her head is the child's head crest from which the sharp rays of light are emitted, illuminating her empire of *celestial dew.

broken image

*Celestial dew is the substance that radiates from the pineal gland when it is stimulated in a higher vibration by the Kundalini, which baptizes the brain, resurrecting the 2/3ds of "sleeping brain" that is not often used in the mundane, human-being}. This dew awakens Divya-Siddhis and/or "magic abilities". The Child crest symbolizes the Divine Child within us all---the Innocent One of Enlightenment before we are "dumbed down" by compliance to dogma, peer pressure, and indoctrination. In other words, we have no official outside authority! Our "inner light" is our only source of authority.

The Military Industrial complex

In her right hand, the Thoth- Queen of Swords holds a sword (the Sword of Geburah-Severity) and in her left hand the head /mask of a bearded man. That bearded man is the Mask of Patriarchal Culture (Military Industrial Complex) a viral- false ego of words that we use to define ourselves, when in Truth, we have already been Defined by the Divine as It's Children made of Light that carries self-aware data. Hence, Wisdom comes from realizing that no-further self-definition is needed as we've been Defined into Being already as the "I AM"! All other definitions of " I AM", are just masking our Truth as an "after the fact" assumption; assumptions that must be made to view and experience the information. So here we can see that the Queen of Swords is the clear conscious perception of Idea, the Liberator and expander of the Mind and cleaves away the Pavolovian indoctrination in our brains. We are not seekers of light, for of light we are made. Rather, we are the Psyche of Light seeking "enfleshenment"!

To think we are trying to "ascend unto heaven" is upside down thinking and is represented by the upside-down pentagram. Rather we are trying to ground the Divine Creative Being that we are. However, we have been trained to be good dogs by the pleasure pain training of Pavlovic theory, that is the practice of subjugating your mind to a false conception of self. Media controlled word hypnosis relies on this conditioning to get you to respond as a marionette (knee jerk) of the Military Industrial Complex.

Pavlovian theory, also known as classical conditioning, is a psychological concept developed by Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov in the early 20th century. It describes how organisms can learn to associate a previously neutral stimulus with a significant event, leading to a conditioned response. Here's a brief rundown:

  1. Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS): A stimulus that naturally and automatically triggers a response. In Pavlov's famous experiment, food is the UCS, as it naturally causes dogs to salivate.

  2. Unconditioned Response (UCR): The automatic, unlearned reaction to the unconditioned stimulus. In Pavlov’s dogs, salivating in response to food is the UCR.

  3. Conditioned Stimulus (CS): A previously neutral stimulus that, after being paired repeatedly with the unconditioned stimulus, triggers a learned response. In the experiment, a bell became the CS after being associated with the food.

  4. Conditioned Response (CR): The learned response to the conditioned stimulus. After conditioning, the dogs began to salivate (CR) when they heard the bell (CS), even if no food (UCS) was present.

The key idea of Pavlovian theory is that through association and repetition, organisms can be conditioned to respond to stimuli in ways they wouldn’t naturally, which lays the foundation for understanding how learning and behavior modification work. This concept is fundamental in both behavioral psychology and learning theory and/or indoctrination and dogma.

The Queen of Swords represents the True Will (Will-To-Form) and has the power to cleave away the unnecessary gross to build the Pure Understood idea. To some this can be disastrous, for the Gross is all they believe in, knowing not their own Pure Self, they see Kali-Ma as a Fanged Hag with Severed Heads (symbolizing personality death). She is also often depicted standing on the backs of copulating Lovers who die in her Sword thrust. The "little death" of orgasm is resplendent in this image, causing even greater fear of "male female" union among the divide and conquer ignorant. However, to the knowledgeable, the union of male-female is the sacred act of communion that annihilates the individual and builds the Divine Creative who Creates All; 0=2. [Tantric studies are recommended for those who wish to Know].

broken image

The Lust to Be, is knowledge of the "Big Bang"---the Great Energy Orgasm that has activated us all. To know the Dancing Goddess-God, Anima-Animus, is to Know Thyself! For you, the Me, gives the I AM the ability to do work! Your brain is a hermaphrodite, as it has left side Male, and right-side Female and therefore, a copy of the Solar Self that we call Soul.

When that fear-based weakness of worded identity that is masking us is removed, we find that we are the Divine Power that has clear purpose and Great Will to Be!

The Lost Soul Tarot-Queen of Swords.

The Lost Soul Tarot-Queen of Swords represents a more medieval Queen and is much like the Rider-Waite-Smith-Queen of Swords. But without the handout jester of welcome.

Rider-Waite-smith-Queen of Swords.

Air, the element of this RWS card is represented by the bird in the sky and the windblown clouds. The Butterfly and Cherub decorated throne represents the created Soul and the Celestial Child that we are. She holds out a hand in greeting and presents a sword of justice.

This card represents all the knowledge we have gained up until this point of the reading. Wisdom is holographic; therefore, it is from the Superconscious collective that is all knowing and that flows universally. Wisdom is an intellectual fractal, which is experienced knowledge applied to focused intellect. Wisdom is not smart, nor clever as it isn't a product of the animal instinctual subconscious, it is a product of the Universal Collective Unconscious Mind experiencing itself through the active life of an entity, the Collective of Universal Experience of Self. Wisdom comes from in-form-action experience and understanding by empathetic means. Every thought is merely a theory until proven in an active manifestation.

When one creates an error, and then corrects that error, they become wise. Wisdom is 50% error, and 50% correction! From this thought, you may see how necessary physical bodies are for the gathering of wisdom!

We are Love made manifest! We are Eros (love of flesh-Body)-Philos (love of family-Mind) and Agape'-(Love of Spirit-Spiritual I AM). Hence, we may understand how the Soul is a most beloved of the Spirit and the body is most beloved of the Soul.

Goddess of the soul

Psyche (/ ˈsaɪkiː /; Greek: Ψυχή, romanized : Psukhḗ) is the Greek goddess of the soul and often represented with butterfly wings. Psyche was commonly referred to as such in Roman mythology as well, though direct translation is Anima (Latin word for "soul"). She was born a mortal woman, with beauty that rivaled Aphrodite.

Children: Hedone

Consort: Eros

Parents: Unnamed King and Queen

Symbol: Butterfly wings

Psyche (mythology) - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psyche_(mythology)

The Archetypal personality of the Queen of Swords card represents:

  • Lucidity of perception.
  • A keen observer (cutting edged), a subtle interpreter, an intense individualist, swift and accurate at recording ideas.
  • Confident in action, with a gracious and just spirit.
  • Being graceful in motion and extraordinary in balance, she will have exceptional dancing abilities.
  • An extraordinarily strong -willed mature Woman who clearly knows what she wants and can bring about her ideas swiftly and without nonsense.
  • When personified, this Archetype Personality is usually:
  • An older woman who has loved and lost but is undaunted.
  • She is strong-willed and determined with clarity of idea.
  • A woman who can bear whatever life presents.
  • She can be critical of emotional outbursts and knows that mental discipline is a necessary part of balancing emotions.
  • She is a master of equanimity and negativity.
  • She knows words are necessary for communication of ideas, but not truth nor final judgment.
  • The Querent is coming into a phase of realization.
  • Realizing that reacting emotionally to worded thoughts is a trick that keeps us enslaved to the visions of others.
  • Rather, she/he now understands (or soon will) that active participation in our own ideas is why we have a body in the first place!
  • Be full of Your Idea, and clear and sharp on your destination and then----Go for It! Do or die, is what life is. I would rather die doing what I enjoy than die as a slave to someone's definition.
  • The counseling or consulting aspect that is witnessed when people ask for clarification or have the desire to find the underlying cause of things.
  • This is an aspect of mind that any decent Tarot Reader knows personally and for me, passionately being a practicing Qabalist, and Tantric, I know Kali Ma, Kali Ema, and Kali Uma as a union of the three stages of the female anima (Earth Feminine consciousness) Maid, Mother and Crone. Each one of these aspects of the Divine Feminine demands the release of pretense and self-absorbed ego.
  • Illusion must be stripped away from our eyes that are blinded by culture, indoctrination and thought organized for us by others who wish to rule.
  • To be clearly psychic is to be child- like in your observation, where everyone is another way to be you but not necessarily the way you are.
  • Observation without judgment of right and wrong.
  • She knows, and does not believe, as she sees belief as untried theory. In other words, belief is pretense of knowledge and is not to be confused with faith which is Trust. Mental clarity is a place many of us fear to go------we fear we might not like what we see. You will be surprised when you become mentally clear, Truth built you so it could be you. Truth is made manifest as you, it is a dynamic presence, not a belief system. The concept of Kali/Athena may seem ruthless, but this state of mind is precisely merciful without the pretense of "bowing to our weakness".
  •  
  • If ill dignified by the surrounding cards, she will be:
  • Avery dangerous person, of exceptional cruelty, slyness, and deceitfulness, all wrapped-up in a superficial beauty and attractiveness.
  • This ill dignity would be because of her inability to support interference, so foresight, prudence, care in preparation of action (paying attention to details) will safeguard the individual from the negative side of this personality.
