Now, as one who may claim to a slight acquaintance with the literature of both paths, and to have been honoured by personal exposition from the adepts of both paths, I believe that I may be able to bring them fairly into the balance. This is the magical theory, that the first departure from the Infinite must be equilibrated and so corrected. So the “great Magician,” Mayan, the maker of Illusion, the Creat…

(x) When I am faded into nothingness, And thou of whomI sing art earth and dust; And when the soul I bear for my distress Is faded in the sun; when love and lust Are nothing to us, dear—my songs shall tell Of all thou wast to those who knew not thee: In the immortal groves of asphodel, They shall seek, drawn onwards by my melody. There shall be no more songs for us, I know, When at the last my throbbing lyre reposes In endless sleep; yet one last rose shall blow Upon our gr…

…of Wands represents the fiery part of Fire, the Knight of Cups, the fiery part of Water. Similarly the Princesses or Empresses represent Earth, so that the Empress of Disks (Coins, or Pantacles) represents the earthy part of Earth.

But the airy part of Fire is sympathetic with Leo, the steady force of energy, the Sun. I,astly, in the watery part of Fire, the harmony is wi…

There the sun strikes the earth obliquely, and the slow alternation of light and night suppresses variety and in- creases monotonythat better half of nothing.
