StarCircle Enochian/Tarot working- Day 3





This morning I worked with the Princess of Cups
the Princess of the Waters; Lotus of the Palace of the Floods
I-Ching hexagram #41-Decrease [In times of diminishing resources simplicity prevails]
Spirits Animals
Turtle-Symbol of Wisdom [because it withdraws into its own shell
Swan-Cloak of soft feathers [Orpheus-who CHOSE to be REBORN in this form]

StarCircle Enochian/Tarot Work- Day 3

today...the Princess of Cups appears...
interestingly enough...she also appears as the beginning of the energies of the Kabbalah energies of Atziluth for the mornings 4 Worlds Tarot Reading...

The arrangement of the spread is relating the Suits to the Tetragrammaton, which is in turn related to the Elements, which is related to one of the Four Worlds:

Yod = Wands = Fire = Atziluth [Boundless World of Divine Names] - [Divine Father] TO DARE - The Lion. The Princess of Cups
Heh = Cups = Water = Briah [Archangelic World of Creation] - [Creative Mother] TO KEEP SILENT - The Eagle. The 9 of Pentacles [Material Gain]
Vav = Swords = Air = Yetzirah [Hierarchal World of Formations] - [Son] TO KNOW - The Angel. 7 of Pentacles [Success Unfulfilled]
Heh = Pentacles = Earth = Assiah [Elemental World of Substance] - [Daughter] TO WILL - The Bull. Queen of Pentacles

ok...so get out your mojo decoder ring...because... to me this means...

the first card...is the Divine energy, the thought...IF you will
the second card...is the creative energy of the thought...giving birth, to the Ideal
the third card...is the actual formation of the Ideal
and the fourth and final card...is the actualization of the ideal itself...when it becomes real and IS substance...

So back to this morning...
The Princess of Cups
Princess of the Waters; Lotus of the Palace of the Floods
I-Ching Hexagram #41- Decrease [in times of diminishing resources simplicity prevails]
the Turtle one of the Spirit Animals - Symbol of Wisdom [because it withdraws into its shell]
the Swan is the other Spirit Animal - cloak of soft feathers [often worn by the Shaman] connected to Orpheus-who CHOSE to be REBORN in that form...

Working with Jupiter



Hymn to Jupiter
The Fumigation from Storax. (Try Amber, Liquidamber, or Benzoin)

O Jupiter much-honored, Jupiter supremely great,
To thee our holy rites we consecrate,
Our prayers and expiations, king divine,
For all things round thy head exalted shine.
The earth is thine, and mountains swelling high,
The sea profound, and all within the sky.
Saturnian king, descending from above,
Magnanimous, commanding, sceptered Jove;
All-parent, principle and end of all,
Whose power almighty, shakes this earthly ball;
Even Nature trembles at they mighty nod,
Loud-sounding, armed with lightening, thundering God.
Source of abundance, purifying king,
O various-formed from whom all natures spring;
Propitious hear my prayer, give blameless health,
With peace divine, and necessary wealth.

Translated by Thomas Taylor.
