Case Paul Foster Tarot Interpretation Tarot Card Meanings Vol 2 Interpretations Part 2

In Lesson 2 you were told that the Tarot Keys can be combined in 112 different groups of nine Keys,
each group containing nine cards numbered consecutively. This does not include the various possible "magic arrangements" such as we have been using in this course. In every group the numbers of the cards follow a certain natural order. The 112 combinations fall into eight groups of 14 combinations each. As given in the tables below, the first combination is the key to all the others in that group, as will be seen from inspecting the tables. No two arrangements are the same, and all represent slightly different shades of meaning.

As there are fourteen arrangements in each group, it is possible to use two each day for eight full weeks. One arrangement should be set up for the morning meditation, and the other should be used just before retiring. Here is material for your occult diary. See what you can do in the way of writing out meditations similar to those you have been receiving in this course. You have by no means yet exhausted the possibilities of the Tarot. Just remember that there are no less than 1,l 24,000,727,777,607,680,000 possible arrangements of the twenty-two major trumps. To all intents and purposes, an infinite number of combinations. And every different arrangement has its own particular effect upon subconsciousness. This tremendous figure, moreover, indicates merely the number of possible ways in which all twenty-two Keys may be arranged. It would be practically
impossible to reckon the various combinations that could be made by varioussubdivision of the major trumps. Just as Tarot is infinite in its combinations, so are there innumerable ways to make use of it. The emphasis, up to now, has been upon yourself. It has been the aim of the courses of instruction concluded by this lesson, to put you in possession of the fundamental knowledge requisite for intelligent self-direction. If you have worked persistently and faithhlly with the material that has been put into your hands, you are quite another personality than when you first began this undertaking. New vistas have opened out before you. New experiences have come your way. Ideas which would have been hard for you to grasp have been made easier for you to comprehend. Changes have been made in your mentality, and transformations have been made in your bodychemistry. You are now better equipped to be of service to humanity. If you have fallen behind in your occult diary bring it up to date by writing a summary of your present understanding of Tarot. Say what you have found of value in the study. Note any changes of consciousness it may have brought you. And be sure to include a statement of what you think the Tarot philosophy indicates as to the place which is taken in the world-order by enlightened men and women. You may not see just why this last statement is required, but it is really very important. The Inner School invented Tarot to assist its members and others in the work which leads to the realization that one has a very definite place in the cosmic scheme of administration. Thus our work together has necessarily the same objective, and
it is important that there be some record of your present understanding of the matter.

Class 1 (Key 4) The Builders Vision X & + = Double Cross (Excluding Center Key) adds to 8 (8 Spokes) On the Fool's garments are ten wheels, each having eight spokes. The same arrangement appears at the center of the wheel on Key 10, on the stars of Key 17, and is the basis of the disposition of the sun's rays on Key 19. This arrangement of four lines so as to form eight angles of 45 degrees is an important clue to the right use of Tarot. If we imagine such a double cross as being drawn on a table, and then place eight Tarot Keys at the extremities of the lines, and a ninth Key at the center, we shall form a combination of symbols which has power to bring out meanings of the Keys which would not be so apparent if the cards were considered separately.

Dear Fellow-Student: I am still away fiom Headquarters, and will be for a period as yet undetermined. This circumstance was so outside the range of probability when the plan was made to review your occult diaries that it was not even considered. Not even a teacher of occultism can see so very far into the future. If you sent your diaries to me now, they could not be returned in less than five weeks. Hence I have decided to ask you a few questions. The answers will tell me what your position is in the grades of our work as it is being gradually reorganized. They will also enable me to give you advice concerning hrther studies which will be quite as constructive as if I had reviewed the diaries themselves. Make your answers complete, and yet concise. Weigh your words carefully, so as to get as much meaning as possible into every sentence. The questions will be found on the page following the last one of this lesson. Address your replies to The School of Ageless Wisdom, 2853 Ontario Road, Washington, D.C. (editor's note: this address is no longer valid). They will reach me fiom there wherever I may be located at the time.

ROSICRUCIAN ORDER OF THE GOLDEN DAWN
The Rosicrucian Order of the Golden Dawn operates as an outer expression of the philosophy, objective, and practical work found in the public declarations of the Rosicrucians in the Fama and Confessio, which were published in Germany in 1610 and 16 15, respectively. In these documents, the authors declare a method and society involved in the transformation of man into a compassionate, socially aware individual, committed to the service of the Brotherhood of Humanity, and the extension of the true gifts of Mankind. Compassion (R.C., "roke", Hebrew for "tenderness") is the true mark of a Rosicrucian and the motivation of our Work. In 1888, three high ranking Adepts of the Western Mystery Tradition formed the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (H.O.G.D.). Around the turn of the century, a series of events culminated in the revolt of the Adepti of the H.O.G.D. and the consequent expulsion of MacGregor Mathers who at this time was the only remaining founder. The remaining Adepti continued the Order as the "Stella Matutina" (with the support of one of the founders, William Wynn Wescott) and MacGregor Mathers went on to reformulate the Order as the "Rosicrucian Order of the Alpha et Omega". Much of this has been documented by R.A. Gilbert and Darcy Kuntz and we direct those interested in such to the published works of these gentlemen. It is sufficient to state for the purpose of this introduction, the original stream of the H.O.G.D. and its two branches have continued to this day. The Founders of the Rosicru-
cian Order of the Golden Dawn (R.O.G.D.), have been personally trained by the leaders of each in fully operating Esoteric Orders. The Work of the R.O.G.D. includes and expands upon the work of the three encompassing the highest grades of the Golden Dawn and Rosicrucian Tradition. The R.O.G.D. acknowledges Apostolic Succession and strongly endorses the value of Lineage and its importance within our Tradition. Each grade of the R.O.G.D. has been received in proper form by those who have received such all the way to the original Founders of the H.O.G.D. and beyond. All candidates for Initiation into the R.O.G.D. must complete a six-month Probationary Membership. The R.O.G.D., as a vehicle for the True and Invisible Rosicrucian Order, offers this service "gratis", that is, we offer it as a genuine gift and we do not ask anything in return, monetary or otherwise. The only condition is to turn in each month's record before we send out the next lesson. Currently we offer Initiation at our Mother Temple located in Southern California. Membership requires a monthly attendance and a few additional times a year for grade work. The astral component of our rituals is a critical aspect, but the candidate must be physically present at our Initiation and Grade Rituals. Please visit our web site at www.rogd.org
