AULA 6 - 10 DE ESPADAS
Good evening, welcome to another group of classes of the complete course Tarot 78 Arcanum. We are studying the Naip of Spades, we have already seen the Court, we have already seen the parts of 1 to 5, practically half of the numbered ones, and today we will do the complementation in the group of classes.
It is worth remembering that the Sword Knight has as its basis the ideology, the point of view, and always as the basis what is believed to be true.
It is important to always remember this, because it is not a naip linked to fantasies or dreams. It is a naip linked to a reality, a hard reality, that the person wants to win, wants to acquire, or wants to structure himself, or wants to win.
It's not a naip that talks about illusions, but about great battles, great wars to get where you want.
That's why he conveys many difficulties, many obstacles, many wars, many fights, because the person wants to win by the scream and by the point of view. So, I always have this as a basis. It's Arcano and the Naipes who talk about the ideology, the personal culture of the person, the knowledge of the world that they have and what they believe to be true. This is important for us to emphasize.
from her point of view, maybe from the environment she lives in, it can be true, from her group it can be true, however, the sword-knife always indicates that the person is in contact, in exchange or in conflict with someone who does not belong
to the same ideological group, or the same cultural group, or of the same style or structure that can harmonize with it. So that's why there's all this very aggressive movement, the person who is one thing, the other who is another thing. So it's always important to emphasize this so you can understand the sequence of the sword knife. Why is it so hard? Why is it so difficult?
We cannot have an idyllic vision, a poetic vision, free will. No, here there is no free will, here there is only winning, winning, winning. So it's as if the person does not observe the context that she is inserted. If she can now or only can later. For her it has to be now. So the sword knife will always generate conflicts.
because he always works with the real world. And we saw this in the "Ace of Swords", 2, 3, 4, 5, a very difficult sequence, even, of desires, of conflicts, of fights, of losses, of the person simply leaving everything aside and leaving life simply without doing anything, because she ends up wanting everything to end from her point of view.
We saw the first triad, the two and three, talking about the principle, and this very hard principle, where the person really loses, but in this process of opposition, which is the four, five and six, which we are going to finish today,
talks about the issue of more problems, because the person simply does not want to change her point of view, she wants to keep the same opinion, the same way, even if it means that she stays quiet, even if it means that she stays quiet. Sometimes the person stays quiet, but she does not give up from her point of view.
Sometimes she catches certain situations, she lowers her head for others, but she doesn't let go of her point of view, she doesn't let go of her thinking, she doesn't let go of her planning, she wants to keep it the same way, so she is simply postponing
everything she wants to do. So that's why in the Four of Swords, in the Five of Swords and in the Six of Swords, the triad is practically null, because the person is only postponing to then be able to take the step she wants, the way she wants, the way she wants. Because in reality, although she seems sometimes calm, distant, or maybe she has solved or solved, she is
within itself a pressure pot, she is very angry, she is with a lot of negative feelings, at that moment she wanted to do it in another way, but she can't, she can't because she lost, remember what we talked about, there in the three swords, the two, three, she lost the power, she lost something important, and she is rebuilding herself, so that's why it's a moment of isolation, a moment of time loss, isolation there in the four swords,
It's mourning, she's suffering there, silent. Five of Swords, practically isolated too, wasting time. Maybe even crying in the corners, or... sorry, not crying, but mourning in the corners, about why things don't work out the way she wants. And we'll have here, in Six of Swords, this final movement about the issue of isolation.
We will have here: 6 swords, 6 knives or 6 spears. In the classic tarot, you will have 6 swords intertwined with flowers cut.
and in the Kabbalistic six swords or images of travel or transition because exactly this symbol of the trip you can do what during a trip nothing unless you sit down and wait to get to the other side, right? the same transition you can't conclude anything you have to finish to be able to give the final aspect so these two images usually appear a lot in Kabbalistic and more symbolic tarots in the Tarot of Marseille it is always worth the rule that they are only the symbol of the Naipes
and exactly from the number and the naipes is that it will give this question. In fact, the quantity of elements of the naipes appears in any tarot. If you take the weight tarot, you will always find six swords. If it's five swords, you will find it in all the cards.
But Marcelo's Tarot only presents the swords and the number. And that's why the combination of the numbering, which is this structure that I'm giving you, and the sequence of history, together, elaborates these words that are transcribed in the other Tarots.
We have here the six swords of the eight, we have a ship, a boat, with two people. Now observe the position of these two people who are being transferred to the other side.
They are simply dressed in very simple clothes and at the same time, low heels. So, the boatman simply has the function of taking and bringing. In fact, the main characters are sitting. It's not the boat. Here, the main symbol of the shooting. The six swords are out of the hands of some people. They are there, stuck in the boat. In other words, they are isolated. So, this is the moment
of isolation. Sorry. This is the moment of isolation. The person is trying to reach a point. And that point is the Ace of Spades. So, we go back to the question of the Ace, which would be the first will. So, when the Six of Spades, it always indicates that the person is, at the moment, trying to recover an old power. Or an old idea. Or an old desire. Until someone...
a lost relationship, a job. Of course, being fired from a job, you will not return to the job, but you can try a job similar or equal to the one you had. The same salary, the same function, the same type of business. So, all this, the sword knife tends to do. It tends to want to keep the same idea, the same status, the same way of life.
the beginning, behind the past. Here we have, for example, if it were an affective issue, usually the person usually goes after who was abandoned, or usually goes after, or think about the old relationships, it can also mean, in 4, 5 and 6, this moment is the person seeking the return, or how I will reach the old relationship.
Not that she has the action, but that is still inside her, being ruminated and somehow desired. And it is in the Six of Swords that she then seeks this direction to this place. We'll see better in a little while. In the Tote Tarot, we also find six swords, facing the center of a cross, which has the Rosicrucian in the middle.
So, we return again to the question that all the mental power, all the desires are focused or attacking something important, which is the spiritual issue, the more transcendental issue. The flower is not somehow unwinding, it is being pierced, it is being tormented by these swords.
One of the very important details here, of the symbol, are not these swords, carving the center of the cross, or carving this rose that is in the middle of the cross. And yes, you see a circle, that the cross is under a circle, but beyond this circle, there is a square, or a losangulo, there. And then comes the symbolic question.
the square or the square has to be inside the circle and not outside because the normal thing is that the macrocosm that the circle represents the totality of the macrocosm englobes a microcosm that is the square or the square or a star but the circle is always bigger so what happens here there is still a question very linked to
práticas, que é o quadrado, pressionando aquilo que é mais transcendente, ou seja, não deixando as ideias ou os desejos irem para
move forward or develop because the six of spades is the moment when people are simply trying to recalculate their route recalculate the planning is researching areas and researching situations that she can and are developing so we also have here a arcane the six of spades he speaks like this gives wait but to see where I can get
That's why Crowley puts it as the arcana of science, which is the moment when research is done, when things are done in the laboratory, when things are mixed to see how I can get the result I want, the practical result. That's why here the square ends up encompassing the circle.
And deep down there are a lot of little winds, a lot of windmills, a lot of little mills too, quite in motion, as we saw in the previous arcana, because here is the air element. But there is still nothing very regular or nothing very planned, as we saw in the gold arcana, for example.
So, the same meaning of the arcane, both of Marseille and of Weyt, ends up being the same here, which is the question of thinking, developing, and still elaborating situations to return to what is desired. This has to be clear.
In the Tarot Cosmic we have a person who is in a kind of yoga or maybe dancing, trying to balance himself at a point, and he points to a staff, which is the staff of knowledge, where we have two intertwined snakes, which is the staff of Mercury and Mercury.
and in this case it is important that we understand that he is seeking knowledge, here making allusion to the science that Crowley himself does,
taking into account that the Cosmic Tarot, and many other Tarots, always ended up making a fusion of one Tarot, another and other elements. But also, in the Tarot, it will mean the same thing, a moment of passage, a moment of waiting, a moment of observation, a moment of attention, a moment also in which the person seeks something to define in the future. So here, different from the Six of Clubs,
So, the six of spades talks about this absence of definition, he doesn't know what to do, he doesn't know where to go.
and will not take any position because he still expects a way to plan or find what he wants. It is a very common arcane in tirages because the person sometimes waits for someone to do something for her to make a decision, that a signal, an intuition or something arises so that she can continue that desire.
Unlike the 6 of diamonds, in the 6 of diamonds we will have the person facing two situations, 3, 4, 5, in which she recognizes that she has to take the path of one of them. And any of these paths are positive and good, because for her it's just simple, which is the best, right? Which moment do I follow? Because here, let's say, I have 2, 3, 4, 5 wonderful paths.
I have to take some here, I will have to take it, and I will take it, and any of them that I take will be good. But then comes the question of cost-benefit in the six of diamonds. Which one will really bring me more satisfaction? It's more because of that. But any path to take is perfect, beautiful, wonderful. But the six of spades doesn't have that path ahead. It doesn't have. There's no one helping.
There is nothing. It is a arcane. When a consultation comes out, it is difficult to explain to the person, to make them understand that it is a arcane of total absence of help, of third parties, of people's destiny, because it is simply on the verge. For a long time it has not done anything, for a long time it has crossed its arms.
For a long time she wanted a situation that was not possible, but she was waiting for it to happen, a miracle, for example. So it is the arcane of suspension, the arcane of detachment, of indefinition, but mainly of negligence, because the person ends up not taking a constructive behavior.
and the whole issue of the six swords is an alert for self-destruction note this is an alert for self-destruction is an alert where the person is digging their own hole hasn't fallen yet and there's still a chance to get through it well and not fall into that hole if
really review the structures or think better or see the planning or change of opinion so she doesn't have that question but he is an alert is an alert that the person can really self-sabotage and she's doing it she's doing things she thinks she's fine she thinks she's
que vai conseguir o que deseja, mas não vai. É o momento da ausência, pode ser o momento da pessoa desempregada, mas não tem ainda perspectivas pela frente, não sabe por onde começar. É o momento que, de repente, se separou e não tem mais ânimo e nem tem mais...
or interest in people, or in a marriage the person no longer feels that flavor, that wonderful feeling of kiss, hug, it's no longer worth anything. Or at work, she simply says: "I'm working to make money, leave it there, the important thing is that at the end of the month I make money." So she stops producing anymore. But all these actions that I quoted as an example, in fact,
is a step towards
and the loss is a step towards destruction is a step towards having great problems in the future so that's why I would say that this letter is a help in some spiritual way because if this letter comes out in the tarot I see today with very good eyes although I'm saying that it won't give anything it won't go forward things don't solve but it's warning that I have conditions to solve if I change my point of view so look at the importance of appearing this letter too
It's not just saying "no, I can't", "no, it doesn't work", "no, things don't work". It's simply saying that things are not working because you are planning wrong, or you are waiting for things to happen in your way, you are waiting for someone to help you. So usually this letter is always pending someone to help the consultant. So it is very important in relation to this.
In the most intimate and personal affective issues, she talks about impotence, incapacity. Impotence is, yes, affective, even sexual, if that's the subject. Impotence of the relationship itself, of returning to the great joys or great beauties that are in an affective relationship.
Why? Because the person may be a little depressed, frustrated, negative and simply no longer finds happiness.
So that's why the arcane of absence, even the symbolism of the boat, is this. It also appears sometimes when a person is on vacation, it's a letter that can also talk about vacation, that is, those lazy vacations, you know, that are just killing the day to day, because they can't do anything, they don't have money to travel, they don't have money to go out, they don't have money for anything, the first thing is to stay at home watching television, it's this kind of vacation, this kind of "I'm not doing anything"
Because I can't develop anything. So, it's a very difficult time. To live it. Very difficult. There is no perspective or hope in this card. There is no. Unlike the 6 of gold, where there is a lot of hope.
There is a lot of vitality in the 6 of gold. Why? Because there we developed the golden knife and all the sequence. The person then, in the Ace of Two, Three, went there, had problems, solved, managed to resolve, went on, managed to preserve, simply keeping things under control. There was also a moment of waste, but
and at some point she decided to stop wasting her time and follow her life, which is the 6 of gold. She stopped seeing her 5 of gold and decided to move on. But with very positive future perspectives. But what about swords? When we deal with numbered knives, we can never forget the story of the sequence of the knife. It is very important that we can not only understand the knife, but also advise
the person himself. On the negative side, we will obviously have all the good things that exist, if I was lazy, here I have vigor, I have energy, if I didn't do anything, here I do everything, if I didn't look for, here I look for, if I was impotent, here I have a desire, so all these issues are reversed.
So I will have effort, direction, vitality, action, reunion, so I go after what I want, with a grip, with disposition, and I will try to go around, over everything, but I can't forget that I'm not going to ask for swords. In fact, even inverted cards, which can have many positive aspects, of achievement and effort, and sometimes even promotion,
I can't forget that it's a sword knife, the background is the same. That is, it's part of dissatisfaction, it's part of the person, of her ideology, of the culture, of the point of view, of how she wants, of how she wants, that she wins as she wishes.
And happiness, as we sometimes think, hear, or hear about what happiness is, in the Sword's Naive, it will never have. It will never feel happiness. It will sometimes feel satisfaction,
And in this satisfaction, something will be missing, a little piece to complement, that he will think is not good, that needs to be improved, because this is the question of the Swordknife. He is never satisfied with what he has. Both with the positive results, and the obviously negative results, which he will not accept. But when he wins with the Swordknife, in the court for example, which has many positive arcana,
or the swords too, so the person ends up not feeling the joy or happiness that supposedly she imagined or fought to have before. So even here with these inverted arcana that can give success to the realization, with the three swords, it gives success to the realization,
the person will not feel the glamour and happiness of having conquered something. Let's go to the next letter, which is the seven of swords. Seven swords, seven knives or seven spears. In classical tales there are seven intertwined swords, a central one. In Kabbalistic, seven swords are an image of cunning or secret. I even advise you to review the classes.
mainly of the numbered naipes, that in the Kabbalistic part I always give the question of an image. So what happens? Each artist who knows the Tarot and elaborates the Tarot well, he will position himself a little bit of this image-based intention of transforming that word into an image, okay?
So that's why it's important for you to understand what the image can convey. And each one will draw in a way, each one will illustrate in their own way, because each artist has a different view, but within a symbolic context. So that's why I've pointed out the type of image that you can find or convey.
This is also there in the complete book of the Tarot, at the beginning of the symbology, there are so many swords, or images of this, and also in the larger arcana. So, the Tarot can be transmitted in various types of images, but within an archetypal context.
So let's go here, it's a Arcanum that talks about chance, possibilities, because if I have there in 4, 5 and 6, a moment of stagnation, a moment of stagnation, a moment where I don't make many decisions, I don't make any decision, and the decisions I make are useless, because 4, 5 and 6 is nothing, absolutely nothing. Pay attention to that.
The nucleus 4, 5 and 6 always has problems. We saw there in 4, 5 and 6 of the Golden Knife, although it is smooth, it is also a large group that gave its complications there within that context of the material side, of the symbolic side of the Golden Knife. As this knife is very affected, it takes a lot to the brain, not even to the heart, it takes it to the brain itself,
the person here ends up in some way in 4, 5 and 6, does nothing, crosses his arms or when he takes a step, takes a step absolutely wrong. So 4, 5 and 6 is the antithesis of what the person wants. The step she is taking is wrong, what she is doing is wrong, what she is thinking is wrong.
and she has to change, if she changes the paradigm, changes the pattern, she will be fine, she will advance like no one else, because swords are fight, resilience, so if she changes the pattern or the way she is planning, wow, who has the level of swords,
reaches the goal. The big problem with the sword knife is that he wants to do it the way he wants, not the way that is better or more appropriate for that situation. That's why he suffers a lot. But it's okay if you become aware of it, and it quickly reaches. So here, in the sword set, he gets the chance again. Then we enter the third line of the principle,
of balance. So it is in the 7 that things can solve and can take a very positive direction. We saw this in the 7 of gold, where the person then, in the correct choices that she made, because gold is always serenity, she then reached this goal. I forgot to turn off my zap zap here on my cell phone. Wait a minute,
Otherwise the sound is ready. I remember that I stopped somewhere. I'm trying to go back, I can't distract myself when I'm teaching. Can someone tell me the last words I said?
It's the beginning of balance. Oh yes, ok. I went back to myself. I went back to the astral.
So, one of the questions we will enter with the Seven of Swords is exactly the principle of balance. Because there in the Seven of Golds we observe that once the person made the right decisions, in the Seven of Golds she had a new paradigm, she had a new path with serenity and success, because she was already making gains, and then she entered other levels.
In the Seven of Swords, which is the principle of balance, the person has not won anything yet, she just lost. And she still wants to go back to what she wanted. But here it requires a greater effort, because she will resume something that no longer exists. She wants situations that no longer belong to her, or misleading situations that will bring her a lot of damage, that will bring her a lot of disgust.
What will bring her, then yes, she may have already taken the step to self-destruction, to self-sabotage. In 4, 5 and 6 of swords, it is still possible to get rid of danger and disgrace. I don't know if you noticed, but in 7 of swords, this thing is already a little strange. That's why she can't give a chance, and that's why most of the tarots
you will find images very linked to cunning, very linked to lies, very linked to masks. The tarot of Oshu Zen, for example, from the Seven of Swords, is a person with a mask on his hand, where if you don't see her face well, it's a kind of strange face, and she has a mask on her hand. And then it's as if she had a double identity, where she will disguise who she really is.
So what happens here in the 7 of Swords in the Wait Tarot? We see a person walking, look at the position of the image, where she carries with her five swords, she is already carrying the frustration, and leaves two swords on the side, which is the conflict. Look, let's pay attention, I've already told you that Wait works a lot, sorry, Wait, especially Pamela Smith,
work a lot on the illustration of the set of elements. So, besides the image, the set of elements also speaks for itself. How is it arranged, in the case of the Leipzig. Here, the person has exactly the five swords in his hand, in one hand he has two swords and in the other three swords. So, notice the conflict and the loss, she carries this inside her, which has to do with frustration.
And then it's as if she was subtracting or trying to win or finding herself victorious in a situation that is deceitful. So this is the image that Pamela Smith wanted to convey when dealing with this letter. It is a very delicate letter and we have to be very careful.
and the croler he puts a sword in the fist but a straight sword straight where it points to a moon that is exactly this diffuse issue and perhaps more linked to feelings than properly reason and three swords on each side and they put them inverted so here we have the negative side of each planet he puts there for him in the three cards
On one side we will find Mars, Venus and Mercury, the symbol that represents them, and on the other side Jupiter, Neptune and Saturn. So he speaks as if it were the negative plans of these Arcanum. So it's futility, vanity, lies, laziness, he gives a series of concepts, this letter, talking about the person
is not in its normal days, right? Things are not so positive on her side, she is using elements that are self-destructive, the lie is self-destructive, the vanity, the futility, the laziness, all these sides
they end up taking it today, not now, at the moment that the person has his vanity, has his laziness, has his futility, has his lie, it's not now, it's later. All these elements, all these feelings, all these actions, they are not revealed at the time, they are revealed over time. And that's what the Seventh of Spades is bringing. They are situations made today, now, at this moment, and that brings future problems.
If I'm being warned that what I'm doing brings future problems, then I have to think twice about what I'm doing. In the Cosmic Tarot, we have all these swords stuck on the ground, and a person with their back with their cap up. So you don't have exactly the notion of what she's leading or bringing. So again, it's a matter of something hidden, something that is not well elaborated, well tuned in with the whole situation.
One of the most important questions in the Seven of Swords is that it may be the letter that gives us the most information about our wrong conduct. Yes, wrong.
but she also says that if I speak, or if I am true at this moment, I will lose, because I have already made the action, or I am taking action, that it is harmful to me. So if I verbalize, or if I speak, or if I transmit, or if I reveal, I can lose. So it's a letter that transmits and asks for caution, in addition to revealing that that action is wrong.
It's a card of cunning. Imagine a devil with seven swords. It's the cunning one that will take you to the labia, will conquer, will steal, will do everything he wants, will date, will cheat, will do everything he wants. But what then? He won't be able to keep it, because the seven swords can't keep it.
The person may even be promoted, but will lose the function, because it was promoted on the wrong basis. Maybe someone made a mistake in the calculation, someone helped, who indicates, there is a lot to go, who indicates. So, the 7 of spades has a lot of that. It is a field of hypocrisy, of amorality, that is, there are not many values in the environment in which you are living. Anything you do, do it.
That's why it's a letter of caution, a lot of caution, a lot of caution. It's a letter that when it comes out, we always advise people to be careful with what they say and what they do. Because at this moment things are still under her control, but she may lose control in the future.
and for things not to get bigger we advise people to simply omit them sometimes look at omitting it's not lying it's omitting what's the difference let's suppose that the person left went to the mall to do a shopping and found the
the woman or man, you met the ex, you met the ex-boyfriend, the ex-boyfriend at the mall, they talked quickly, and then when he came home, the husband or wife asked: "And then, how was the mall, what do you have, did you find anyone?" If you tell the truth: "Oh, I met my ex, what do you have?" It's a fight in the right, it's a discussion in the right, it's a disagreement in the right, even if you haven't done anything.
understood nothing nothing nothing is better to say like this I didn't see anyone I didn't pay attention I didn't see and I didn't see I didn't see right so it's always important to give a warning to the person be careful with what you say if you're going to do for example
a test, for example, if you were unemployed and went to do a test to be admitted and had those little questions, right? Have you gone to the doctor? No. Do you have a headache? No. You just took a paracetamol for a headache, but you say: No, I don't have it. Have you ever had any disease? No. Everything is no, because if you tell the truth, you lose. This is a letter that if you tell the truth, you lose. And then comes the advice.
the person has already taken an attitude or is already in a delicate position. So it's better to try to solve and undo. It will be discovered only if the person really speaks or if she leaves her mouth or herself, or in some way she positions herself and tells the truth or says what she wants or what she wants.
So it's a letter of stalking too, that people live watching people one by one, in the network, I don't know, a stalking letter, "Oh, this guy, this guy, how does he see me?" Well, it's a sword fight, where he's watching you, because this is a vigil letter, this is a letter of you researching the other person. But you won't say what you're going to say, what creates what? Creates a fight, creates a discussion.
It's a delicate letter when it comes out in the game, because the secret is for the person to keep the secret, whatever it is. And never say it's totally true, never tell the truth, and try to solve it. So from then on, try to solve it. It's not to lie all your life, or omit it forever, it's not. From then on, solve it. Why? Because it's already an indication that it will be discovered in the future. So if the person continues in this process, it can be discovered in the future.
Everything is important, the person is aware that she is stepping on eggs, entering a snake nest, and things are not very much in her favor. It is a letter that talks about betrayal and ambiguity. This betrayal is not just... we talk about betrayal, we think about sex, affective relationship. There is also the betrayal of friends, there is the betrayal of the word. He promised to do something and he doesn't do it.
The friend said he wouldn't do it and ended up doing it, against his desires and his wills. So it's a letter where it says that things are not very well related to each other. And that's why I always give diplomacy as advice. It's a letter that demands diplomacy. It demands. It is not a letter of diplomats. But it indicates that diplomacy is necessary.
It is necessary to speak about this. Oh, a detail, I talked about the Tarot of Osho, the name of the card of the Seven of Swords of the Tarot of Osho, which has a mask, is called "Politicus". So that's why I already transmitted well what the Seven of Swords means. And there is that person who does not tell the truth, omits, omits, omits. The card of the Swords represents this well. And this conflictive moment, where if you tell the truth, you lose.
I've had many consultations with this letter, not only... not even affective issues, but professional issues. Where the person had some professional habits, subtracting little things from the office, or giving a fake lunch, always trying to take advantage, sometimes in a purchase, in a commission. So, the Seven Spots talks a lot about this, about the person trying to have advantages
and on top of something of a sale she's doing sometimes the exchange is doing is how they say
I'm selling to another person, I'm going to sell it for 100, she goes there and I give you 20, she goes there and asks for 110, because she will get 20 of one and 10 of the other, this is very true of swords, where the person will try to earn as much as she can in that situation. So it's a very delicate card, it can indicate theft, it can indicate betrayal, it can indicate
or the person lends money to someone and that person never pays her. So it's a letter that always ends up revealing in the future this difficulty, this problem. In the present, no. In the present it's just success, okay? "Oh, will you get this success?" "Oh, you can win, you can have it, yes." "Will I be able to conquer such a thing?" "You can conquer it, yes, but there's always a plus point."
but this situation will bring harm, but this situation will bring problems, but the situation is complicated because it is based on false bases. So you always have a "but" with this card, even if you are doing it and conquering it. So that's why it's a card of chance, of the chance of you winning and also of the chance of you getting rid of a problem. So that's why it's ambiguous here in these two aspects. Her reverse,
If I have all that greed, that eloquent way of speaking and winning people over, and I'm smart, here I have ingenuity, purity. If I have capacity, here I don't have much capacity, because of lack of experience, because here it is inexperience.
Here is the lack of action, the lack of knowing more details of a situation. So it's like if the person simply speaks the whole truth, can't lie, can't omit, and she is absolutely true to what she says, and everything ends somehow, she not knowing how to deal with the situation completely. So she gets weakened. The inverted "l" already gives an aspect of fragility in the person.
We are going to the Eight of Swords, which is opposition to balance. So what happens here? For me to get to the context of the triad, of balance, I will have to solve many pending issues at once, in the Sword Knife.
and in the Golden Naip we saw that the person simply opened new paths because she knew how to deal with earnings and losses and investments so she earned, lost, invested, solved and was always making progress. Golden naip is always progress. Here it is always retrocess. Pay attention to these two words: progress for gold, retrocess for swords. So,
In swords, and as we get to number 8, it is the number of karma, which we will study in the future, the eights, talking about the karmas of each one of them. But number 8 is the number of karma, we talked about the eight of gold, which was benesse, it was karma helping the person, karma blessing the person, karma, good karma, as they say. Here karma is bad, very bad.
because everything that was done or done wrong will come out. It will be unmasked, it will be resolved, it will be somehow put in public. We find here eight intertwined swords with a central flower in the classical stones.
and the eight swords will be the image of suffering or prison so just in the image you already start suffering or prison you already know that things are not good at all and here the key word is danger very danger here eight swords in the classic tarot are eight cemeteries intertwined still with flowers cut the central flower is unbuttoned 8 is a number really linked
a change in the life cycle of the person, where everything has to be resolved. If you planted, you harvest, if you didn't plant, you don't have to harvest. So there are always these two aspects. If you planted wrong, you will harvest wrong. So here in the Tarot of Wait, we observe a woman tied, completely tied, with her eyes closed, with her eight swords around her, she is simply inside a Lamassal.
deep down we see the palace or tower that is not very well defined all in gray not a beautiful image and then we will find a lot of people trying to extract this image or extract from the tarot as it has to be read
something positive, you know? "Ah, she's there, what do you want? Just untie her." And then comes that story of the hangman, right? That he's tired of knowing. "Ah, she's there, what do you want? Untie her." But this is a point in history, this is not the whole story. So it's not like that, "Ah, she can untie her." If she could untie her, she would be untied.
But she is tied up here, sold, this is a clear position of who will be killed, right? Of course, there is the wall, the shooting, and exactly this moment, this moment that will be resolved, will be solved, will be revealed, revealed everything that the Seven of Swords did wrong and did not want to correct.
And the Seven of Swords has everything to do with the beginning of the desire that was not solved, with those parts that were not resolved in 4, 5 and 6, which is the isolation, the inaction and the laziness. He wanted to do it again, he wanted to do it wrong again, he repeated, repeated the mistake. And now this mistake will really be revealed.
It is a letter that also speaks of betrayal, but a betrayal pointed to others. Now let's see something different. The Seven of Swords says that the person can really be making decisions or situations and that she is betraying.
But the Eight of Swords says that people or the environment will point to the betrayal made. This is the big difference here between these two cards. The Seven of Swords says: "I can still
omit, lie, I can cheat, I can steal, I can do whatever I want, because I'm undercover. But other swords discover and point at me: "Look, look, you did this, you did this, you did this, that's why she's stuck here. There I have the sword in the Toadweight, until there I'm just coming out, "Ah, I won, I won, I won, here I fucked up, I fucked up, I fucked up."
And that's it, he's in jail because he was robbed, people quickly found who stole and they put him in jail again, which is the meaning of the seven and eight swords. It's the meaning of you subtracting and here you are discovered. But both talk about betrayal. In the Tote's Tarot, which is the one from Crowley, we observe two swords pinned down,
including with lateral fists
and seven different stances, of different types, different ways, conflicting with each other. Three on one side and three on the other, also making the opposition. At the bottom we find a lot of red blood, where we find even Jupiter, but totally on the negative side, the destructive side of the card, where he talks about issues of interference. Look, interference.
He was very smart, he and Frida Harris. By the way, Wade and Pamela Smith
Crowley and Frieda Harris were very smart in working with the symbolism. Not for nothing, along with Marcelia, there are three iconic bars in which everyone gets lost. Because they are details, sometimes of the name, of some positions, that only those who know deeply can develop this art, even to put a word like this: interference.
Because actually, the Eight of Swords, the person is arrested for pointing out, discovering. The police discovered, right? Someone pointed out, the witness said. So the Eight of Swords is the great discovery of wrong things. And it talks about interference, it talks about betrayal. "My friend betrayed you." "Ah, my friend betrayed me." This is the Eight of Swords. Betrayed? Betrayed what? To tell the truth? Because betrayal has to do with truth. Never forget that. All betrayal speaks of truths.
Revealed truths. Hidden truths that could not be spoken, said or shown, that could harm this person. But it is a truth. So the Eight of Swords is nothing more than to shatter the truth, whatever it is, naked and raw. And greater or lesser, it will also depend on the greater arcana that is with it, we will not disgrace the Eight of Swords so much, they can be silly things.
The husband says: "Don't tell my mother, she can't know about this problem I'm dealing with, the disease, this and that." The woman goes and tells him. "You betrayed me, you told my mother that I was doing this treatment, it wasn't to be said." So when we talk about betrayal, we talk about all kinds of betrayals. It's just to think, it's very common to think, to talk about betrayal, to think about disgrace, treason, the extraconjugal,
This is what they think the most when they talk about betrayal. They don't stop to think about the betrayal of the friend, the betrayal of the word, of that person who said he would help you and didn't help you, of that person who said: "Oh, count on me, you need to talk to me!" And then you went through a thousand troubles and this person disappeared. This is betrayal too.
So there are several aspects. You tell someone about your sadness, or tell someone about a big problem in your family, and that someone has a best friend or a best friend who also tells. This is betrayal. So, 7 warns against this type of betrayal, and 8 of Spades says that this betrayal will be revealed. And then, depending on the question or the house you meet, we notice what type of betrayal it is, or what type of situation may be involved, but it is always something very difficult.
It is a truth that will be revealed. In the Cosmic Tarot, we observe a couple, in the middle of a Lamassal too, and caught in certain swords, one from the back to the other. That is, there is no harmony, there is no happiness in this card, it never indicates something that denotes great possibilities of achievements and satisfactions. It is a card of error, it is a card that speaks of losses,
It can be a loss of a property, you bought a car and suddenly comes a car with a bad engine, or you buy a car and it has a crash right after.
start to relate to someone, and suddenly this person is toxic, and this person hurts you. So, the Eight of Spades is never a very positive card. Sometimes it's a toxic relationship, sometimes it's a relationship where things can be aggressive. So, it's a card that reveals conflicts, difficulties, losses, ruptures.
disloyalty, especially when I talk about betrayals, it's much more about disloyalty, and maybe it's better to understand what disloyalty is, there's a friend, there's the neighbor, there's the relative, there's everyone who can be disloyal to you, and then yes, depending on the position, you may be indicating your disloyalty, or the disloyalty of someone, it will depend on the question, on the position of the card, you associate the house
or the question with this letter, so it directs you to where you are. If you are suddenly asking about someone, this is the Eight of Spades, this is someone who has the Eight of Spades, if you are talking to yourself about your things, about your work, the Eight of Spades is talking about you, about your work, so always associating with this part, okay?
and the inverted side of this card there would be very good right it's profits it's there yes help from friends the person has achievements has success I have promotions she is well seen she will have a lot of people helping her is solving even her problems
If there I have disloyalty on the positive side, here I have fidelity on the positive side. Here the situation is much more powerful in the person's hand, helping her in every way. In general, these two cards, perhaps of all the swords, seven or eight of swords are the most critical cards, which involve the person, the client and the environment.
The other cards that we saw and that we will still see, from 1 to 6 and now, after, 8 and 9, talk much more about the advisor, about situations that he needs to solve, he lost but maybe it's not that important. 7 and 8 of Spades involves, how can I say this, the person's morality involves
She, in front of society, in front of her family, in front of her community, in front of her work, how do people see her pointing out the mistakes? "She stole, betrayed, was unloyal, I don't trust this person." So, seven and eight of spades can bring a lot of this dilemma of image in front of others, of lack of trust
that others deposit in the person. And you know that trust is all in a social, professional, spiritual or affective relationship. Trust, trusting someone is very important. And these are two cards that balance the trust of the situation or the person. They are not cards that are positive in any situation,
As long as you have it with you and you start to apologize, because the client always gives a thousand apologies, the seven or eight swords, that he was induced, that it was not like that, he was deceived, that it was not what he wanted to do, it was not like that, it was not like that. He will always apologize, but he will continue to do it, because it is a sword knife.
Because in the head, in our heart, in our life, the sword knife is very real for us, real in our head and in our heart. It is not something impossible, it is something tangible for us.
not in reality but in our perception. So the sword naip is always tangible. So when they leave the game, I emphasize this a lot, keep in mind that the person is sure that they are on the right path, even if they are wrong, they have excuses, why did you get there, why did you do that, they are always innocent, always, they will always be innocent. But of all the sword naip,
7/8 I would say are the ones that stain and complicate and give harm to the situation that is being asked or being developed. These are very common cards, even, they are not simple, they are not: "Oh no, because I'm a good person, I only do the right thing." If you leave the 7/8 of Spades, stop to think:
that maybe your thinking or your attitude is not as perfect or as good as you think, because in front of others, or the environment, or the family, or work, or society, it is harmful. It is at this point that we have to think about the seven and eight of spades, otherwise: "Why did this card come out for me?" Stop thinking, because it came out for you. Reflect, review,
Do a reflection on why she left and not simply "I didn't understand, I didn't understand, I'm cut, I didn't understand" I'm tired of seeing people say that sometimes, from 7th to 8th grade, "I didn't understand, no, no, I'm an honest person"
The question is not about honesty, the question is that we practice ideological and cultural points of view that are harmful to ourselves, because the middle does not agree, the middle is in disagreement. This is a key point in the 7/8 of swords. And also a key point in the whole knife of swords, ok? Let's go to 9. 9 of swords, 9 of knives, 9 of spears.
"Nine swords intertwined, with one in the middle, or in the Kabbalistic, nine swords, or image of suffering, fear and pain." Look, let's go back to the misfortunes. "But this misfortune is not over yet!" No, this misfortune is not over yet. Because one of our great questions as a human being,
is that when he puts something in his head, and it has to be his way, his way, his way, it's hard to change, it's hard. It's very difficult when he's immersed in some feelings of...
of disappointment, feelings of loss, feelings of abandonment, or of contempt, the feeling of contempt, the person will want to reconquer by revenge, she will want to reconquer, because the only way she believes she can be happy.
and the nine of swords in the tarot of the eight makes very clear the despair because it puts a person lying down here, look at this lying down here is a bed in front of the sword room that was a coffin was a grave not forgetting that right remember the sword room there was a person lying there it was a statue
It was an effigy, an effigy, an effigy, a statue that is very common in graves and in sarcophagi. So, different from here, here it is a person. And this person, she simply left that position of dead, alive, which is the four of swords, a position of despair.
So, notice how she has this thigh involved in the legs, you know that thing at night? Because who is desperate, who loses great things, who really suffers, is at night and cries a lot in bed. So, the image here is perfect. Either we cry in the bathroom, desperately, or we cry in bed, desperately. So, when we lose things, on top of things, things that are very valuable, very deep,
and that there is no return, there is no return. Everything was discovered, everything was revealed, everything was solved, there is no return. We fall into this despair, in this matter of a separation, of a divorce, where the religious divorce has already been signed, there has already been a resignation, the person died, the car was stolen, there is no money to buy another one.
Do you know these situations where there is nothing left to do but go back and not solve? So, the nine of spades are situations that have no return, no chance of return. And then we enter into this despair.
It's very common, I've been through that, I think you've been through it too. Consulents, there will be a lot of you here, that you will find with 9 of Swords, crying, desperate, wondering why you lost. The question here is: why did I lose? It's not "I want it back", like the 3 of Swords, like the 7 of Swords, but here it is: why did this happen? So here we have this image of suffering,
In the Crawling we also find the 9 swords facing down. Note that the Tarot of Crawling is always facing down and not in the fist. In the fist it is successful, but facing down it is always defeated. There are 9 red blood swords, spitting blood. Also note that. They are rusty and destroyed swords, because the blades are all worn out.
Deep down, there are yellow drops that represent poison. The person was killed by the poison itself. Look how beautiful this is, how curious it is. Look how beautiful the image is here. I am fascinated with the images of the tarot, how the artist expresses something so deep of the meaning of the letter itself. The person here was killed by the same poison, was destroyed.
by the poison itself. So it's really a very difficult thing to understand sometimes, how the person gets to this point. It's a point of total destruction here. That self-destruction, that self-sabotage that we talked about in the Six of Swords, 4, 5 and 6 practically, for people to cheer up and when these cards come out, they cheer up, let's go, let's solve it because there's still time. Here there is no longer time, here the time is over.
Here we don't have to solve anymore, it already happened. In the Seven of Swords, which is the principle of balance, it can happen. So, let's take into account, let's go back,
and the nine of spades has already happened there is already past 9 parts and past phase ok what happened in the past or if the situation is present we are already a disgrace today there is nothing until the future point right but if she even has the point in the house card of the future she will be indicating that the past actions
and past decisions will interfere and lose everything. So, anyway, it's a letter that talks about the past, even if it's projected in future houses.
the cosmic tarot, we see there a man kneeling with knives, the spears entwined in his chest, obviously, locking his heart, he will die for sure, right? One on the leg and one on the heart, he has a sword pierced on him, look at the leg, walking mode, heart, feeling and the snake, also here in the corner, a sword killing the snake, which represents wisdom.
There in the background, destroying the temple, the house, and around it, an absolutely disorganized terrain. So, this is the end. This is a letter of end. People are very afraid of the ten of swords, the next letter, but this one is dark. This is ten thousand times worse than the ten of swords. Because this is where suffering resides. This is where total disgrace, anguish resides.
The tears, the disappointment, the depression. It's not that little depression, "I'm depressed, I'm going to Paris." No, it's not that. It's the depression of wanting to go to bed, not wanting to eat, not wanting to take a shower, not wanting to do anything. That's real depression. That little depression of dragging your slipper to the movies, sad. That's not depression. That's sadness. Now, depression is to lock yourself in your house, not to eat, not to drink, not to get out of bed, not to take a shower.
and stay like this for a long time. This is depression. Not wanting to do anything anymore. So this is the 9th of Spasms. It shows a very delicate moment in the life of that person, where she lost everything, where she has no vision of anything anymore.
and it's literally the arcane of pain of failure and then the eight of spades is losses but it's not failure we enter again in the possibility of the eight of spades of the person to solve himself despite being the failure the loss the prison the appointment of misfortunes is still possible to solve Look how many chances we have in life, right, the nine of spades doesn't have this card, it really doesn't have this one
pain and failure, these are losses. Because in the Eight of Spades, although the person had been pointed out, revealed the truths, had problems, she didn't want to change, she didn't want to learn.
she didn't want to change the speech, she didn't even say it was wrong, she will give a thousand excuses, seven or eight spades, the person will give two thousand excuses for why she did that, and she will not apologize and she will not assume the mistake, she will not, seven or eight spades, she will never assume the mistake, by the way, spades are difficult to assume mistakes, unless in this letter, this is the first letter that says that the person says like this, ah, why did I do that?
"Ah, what a disgrace of my life!" "Ah, why didn't I say I did such and such thing?" "Why didn't I hear that guy, Cicliano Bertrano?" "Why didn't I hear the tarot reader?" "Why didn't I hear my mother?" "I should have heard!" Because here, it's a waste of everything. Here, it's really tears of truth, it's suffering.
It's a degradation, it's unhappiness, it's misfortune, it's loneliness, it's disillusionment. The Four of Swords is also loneliness, but it's not disillusionment yet. Here it's both, loneliness and disillusionment. The Four of Swords, the person is in mourning, he's there, quiet, in his corner, maybe crying too, but he still has the possibilities flying in the person's head to find, to review, to solve, to have it back.
Whatever it is, the nine of spades doesn't exist. It is the end, end, end, end of everything. This is the final point. This is nothing. Here the person simply encounters his own mistakes, encounters his own misfortunes in his own life. So it is a very difficult arcana to live through.
The inverted is gain, success, happiness, union. So obviously all this disgrace, this depression here is happiness, development, strength, but it's a sword knife.
ok so the person will be happy for a period and will not be able to give maintenance to this exuberance all so we can't forget that it's a sword knife just that even winning even being faithful even being in union here in the nine of swords always the person will be wanting her way if she wants to win the way she won the way she will want to keep her way so I need to talk about the future future or ten swords too because even in these inversions
I also the next arcana is not inverted here next normal right it won't be all inverted ok it's normal and here I want to point out something very important between three swords and the nine of spades that this is part of our life there is no one who has not gone through this the bottom of the well and only when you reach the bottom of the well
and there's no other way to go up look up and see a light right and there's only one left to go up there's no more there's nowhere to fall and the nine of spades represents this so there's this sentence only at the maximum point of pain is that the possibility of overcoming relief and transcendence opens up there's no way you
comes out of a desire, a will, that somehow you still think or act as if there were possibilities to solve, only really when things are no longer possible, the minimum possibility is that it is the maximum point of pain, that we will then try to go out and find a solution. So the Three of Swords,
It's a little pain, a tear, a suffering, as I've said before. It can still be overcome, the person still has a feeling, but the 9 of spades doesn't. It's the opposite. And then I want to point out the following for you: the 3 of gold and the 3 of spades, which is the balance of the principle. And the 9 of gold and the 9 of spades, which is the balance of the balance. Let's observe the following: there in 3 of gold,
I have the solution of everything where I win if I win I keep investing I keep developing to win we continue in happiness in satisfaction in development if I win I can sell and have more if I win I can have what I want on the side and I will have other plans that's what it is there the three of gold the three swords I don't win I lost what I wanted
I wished, I didn't have, I lost this, I lost that, but I can still have, I can have, because I can still reconquer. In the three of gold I will continue to conquer, and here in the three of spades I can reconquer. What happens is that we know, you saw that in the sequence of gold, I arrived in nine of gold, which is the balance of balance, so, there I have the maximum recognition of life,
of a situation that I invested with common sense, invested, reinvested, developed, created, developed, progressed. So I am recognized as a 9 of spades, 9 of gold, because I have this very positive trajectory.
and in swords I have here the total loss because I wanted to insist on having things that don't belong to me anymore because these things ended up three swords so I have here I insist insist insist and I don't have it I lose everything here here is the final point is regret there is nothing left in the name of swords due to previous insistence
And then there is a question, which I already talked about in the course of the Greater Arcanes, about the question of the oracular projection. In the same way that we saw there how the oracular projection works, of the successor arcanes, of the Greater Arcanes, we will also have the same thing of the oracular projection in the Court and in the numbered ones.
The Court will have a sequence from the page to the king, so there is a strengthening of powers, we saw this when we studied at the beginning, about the Court.
And the same thing with the numbered ones, we've already talked about this, which is a strengthening in the matter of 1 to 10. But when I said this before, you may not have understood this sequence of growth that exists in the numbered ones. So, in the same way that I have in 10, because I have done things, gained things, developed, suggested, solved, reinvested, reinvested, I have only success and progress and gains.
But in the sword knife, I start to have an idea, it doesn't work, I have obstacles, I have difficulty, I lose and I want the same thing, I want to go back, start over, and I will lose, because I will only do wrong things. I will lose everything. So there is this oracular projection. So much so that you have to take into account another thing. If I have a degree of satisfaction at the beginning of the tarot, of the numbered or the court,
The degree of satisfaction at the end of the court or at the end of the numbers is always greater, it is always more dynamic. If I have progress and gains at the beginning, I will have progressions and prosperities at the end. I will increase. The same thing if I have pain and suffering at the beginning, tears, I will have despair, disillusionment, misfortunes at the end, because everything increases. So the three swords that talk about losses,
and suffering is not the same kind of loss and suffering that there is in the 9 of spades, because it is much greater in the 9 of spades than in the 3. The 3 still warms up, "I'll have it back", it cries a little and tries to redo the path. In the 9 of spades there is no more, it is the final point. So it is important that you understand the sequence, the evolution, the strengthening that exists, both for good and for evil. 10 of spades.
Ten interlaced swords, in Kabbalistic, ten swords or image of death or destruction. Here it is final, because here it is already the question of the solution. What is the worst, I would say, is the seven and eight of swords, where the image or the situation becomes very complicated for the person. In the nine of swords, it simply ended, lost.
the bottom of the well is perfect there, but in 10 swords is the end, if it's the end there's nothing else. In all numbered seeds there is still the possibility, after, of giving new levels, good or bad. And here the levels are all negative. But this is the end, so Wight put Pamela Smith, a person who fell to the ground, dead, stuck with 10 swords, it's not physical death, it never was, it never will be,
but the question of the end of a situation, of the ending, of something that has no more resources, the person has no more strength, no more elements to move forward. So this is what these ten spears will represent. In the Tarot of Crowley, Thoth, we have here the ten swords in formation, I always remember that the number 10 of Crowley represents
the tree of life in all of them, so here is a configuration of the tip of the swords, there is one in each sephirah related to the tree of life, let's see that there is in the upper sword up there the sun and a scale
in the first central and in the sword down there we will have the square and the moon that represents the question of the question of transcendence and materiality ok now notice that we have here is 4588 swords two are missing because we saw there in 10 gold 10 coins but here there are eight swords appearing the other two are also hidden
They are there, they have a heart in the middle, with some stars. So there are two swords stuck inside that heart. So it's like if there was the finalization, the total loss of any power, of any strengthening, by the judgment, by the question of, look, there's nothing left to continue, there's nothing left to do. In the Tarot of...
of cosmic, we observe a person being pierced by lights,
and swords. So it's like if she discovered the truth and other paths to follow. That's why the heart is with lights behind, from the Tarot of Crowley. And here we also have the illustration of a sun up there, transmitting light through the person's mouth, the eyes, her body. So it's like she was discovering
a new world. This is the Ten Swords, it is the discovery of a new world, it is the completion of one and the beginning of the other, it is turning the page, literally turning the page. When a person says: I'm tired, enough, I don't want to suffer anymore, I'm tired, I'm going to turn the page, I'm tired, I'm going to leave, I'm tired, I'm going to stop the discussion, I'm tired, I'm going to stop wanting to be right.
"I'm tired, today I want to live in peace, I don't want to be right." It's like this, the Ten Swords. "I'm tired, I'm going somewhere else, I'm going to change schools, I'm going to change relationships, or I'm going to change the relationship." Because sometimes the person also changes within the relationship, right? The way you behave. So the Ten Swords brings this movement of, "look, it's the end, it's my decision." So it doesn't carry the pain, that's the point, it doesn't carry the pain that we saw from 1 to 9. It doesn't carry
The disgrace and the desire to have something. It carries a little of the light and the hope of the future. Where? I'm on the line between closing one book and opening another.
I'm in a moment of water divider of my life, or of that particular situation, where I will no longer look to the past, nor care about such things. I will seek a new future, a new order, a new project, a new situation. The Ten of Spades is a very welcome letter, although it is already loaded with this question of death, as people see in the Tarot of Wait,
She talks about the end, the end, there is nothing left to go forward. She talks about decision, end, misfortune, revolution. Let's go to a new beginning. She talks about separation, renewal, but it's not a separation that I didn't expect, because then sometimes the person is shocked in the analysis of this letter, for example, because she didn't go through all this suffering of swords. So for her, when the tarot reader who is studying tarot says,
For the common person who is studying tarot, who hasn't had big reverses in life or separations, she sees a letter like this, she says: "Oh, separation, oh, how horrible, I don't know what's going on!" But this is a kind of separation, where the person has already suffered a lot, has already, I don't know, had a toxic relationship, and here ends the toxic relationship. Here ends that work that the person was a slave, she was exploited,
Here ends that mistrust. Here ends all kind of betrayal, of extra-conjugal or unfaithfulness of the friend. Everything is solved, everything is resolved. Ah, this is the past, I don't want to talk about it anymore. So this is a letter where she comes to put a final point and a decision. It shouldn't be seen as something negative, of disgrace.
It's the end of the misfortune, think like that, it's the end of the misfortune, it's not the beginning of the misfortune. The beginning of the misfortune is behind the Knight of Swords, okay? There... In the Two of Swords is the beginning of the misfortune. Here is the end of the misfortune. It's very simple this card. The misfortune is in the Nine of Swords. There is the misfortune. It's in the Eight of Swords. Maybe in the Seven. Two of Swords, three, but look here, not here. Here is the end. Here is the end of everything. So if I have ten swords,
This letter puts an end to the hanging, for example, which is a letter of utopia, of inaction, that is, it ends, it ends, let's renew, let's turn it into death. Put an end to the tower, the problem is over, the suffering is over. Put an end, maybe, to the sun, that is, it's not what I thought, it's over. I have affection, I have affection,
I don't have any more reason. So, put an end to projects? Car with ten swords? I thought about it, it won't work, I'll do it another way. So, the ten swords says that the person will do it another way. And a better way? Because the ten swords is based on the negative experience that the person doesn't want to have in their future. Think that way.
Inverted, gain, success, progress, union, contracts, it's beautiful inverted, wonderful. About the inversion we will study it in the future, because there is a reason for it to be inverted, this type of gain is a great gain, but it has its advice, which we will see in the future. We'll stop here today, closing this cycle of the sword knife, it's difficult, very difficult.
It's complicated, complex, it generates doubts, but only practice with the tarot or with your own life is that you can identify with these cards, these arcanum, to be able to understand the consultant, or when the consultant arrives, you can learn a lot about what he is feeling and thinking when he has these cards, okay? Kisses, heart, we'll stay here today, in this first phase. Let's go to the second.
Let's go to the rules of the arcana of the European method. Let's complement them. We saw in previous classes the first group of rules, which was: the greatest predominates over the least, and the least dimensions the greatest. So, the greatest will always have the answer, but the least will say how it will develop. That's what we learned.
It may be that the Major says yes, and the Minor says: "later, now, now not." So the Minor will always give a tone of how the Major Arcanum will process itself. And the greatest difficulties are when the Arcanums are divergent, anachronistic. But to understand them, first we will have to understand the Arcanums as equals.
What are equal arcana? The greater and the lesser arcana have the same proportion, the same meaning. They increase the combination. There is the car with ten gold coins. So the two are prosperous. So wow! The prosperity is strong, it is solid, concise.
But I have there, suddenly, the death with three swords. So the two talk about changes, transformations, so they are critical changes. They are not simple, they are deep. So, arcanes equal with the same values will increase everything. And the different arcanes, and then yes, that is the great difficulty,
they decrease this value, they decrease the tone of the conversation, of success or joy, everything that was is diminished. We call it anachronistic, dissonant or dystopian. Why? Because time, thought, are dissociated from reality. Every anachronistic arcana, which are divergent in values, you have the tower with ten gold, for example, the tower with ten cups,
the car with three swords. So when it's divergent, there is a problem, a process that the person, the consultant, developed in a wrong way.
He couldn't do things in order, or in order, or in sequence, of time, planning, coordinated action with the environment. He put the cart in front of the donkey, as they say, he wanted it in another way, he wanted to speed up the time he shouldn't.
I wanted to have before time, as my grandmother said, the "pressed man eats raw". So the anachronistic arcane, these differences will totally decrease the value. The anachronistic sun will not have this exuberance, in the same way that the anachronistic tower will not be this disgrace. So there is also a positive side of the anachronistic. Let's see some examples here for you to have an idea. Well, here they increase the value. An example:
There is a tower with three swords, both talk about losses, difficulties, problems, obstacles, so obviously the business increases, losses increase. So if I have, for example, a problem of quitting, I will be fired, it may be that this resignation causes me many losses, even for the right cause. So, it causes me great losses.
different, if I have a sun with ten gold, then the two, one speaks of success, another success, prosperity, prosperity, so it is a progress, it is an absolute success here, it is an absolute gain. If I have an eremit here with six swords, the two speak of time decrease, so I will have much more time here, much more difficulty, much more obstacle, much more prolonged actions, or maybe I never get it, right? So,
and here when it's even the rhythm of the letter it's easier to identify but it's easy to sometimes elaborate look this is a big problem it's not small alert the consultant I'm with three spaces it's a big problem it's a very delicate loss as well as
the sun, the car, the empress with ten gold coins, a king of gold, a king of swords, it's an absolute success, let's go forward, don't doubt this success. In the same way, you have
the hermit is temperance priesthood with six swords with four swords with four gold it may be that the thing stays for a long time because they are all very similar in time in stagnation in maintenance in possessiveness in crossed arms are all very similar so increase then the increase in value
Both on the negative side and on the positive side, the arcs have to be in the same language. The big problem is when... An example here. I had an example before, wait a minute. So I have here, for example, a naked... any.
where the question was perhaps to buy an object, or mark such a situation. So, open the sun with ten gold, so, an exuberant, strong, fantastic thing, everything is possible today, at this moment, only that in the middle of the way, in the result, there was the hermit with six swords, so, suspension, things will not be solved, although there are conditions, because opening the sun with ten gold, there are conditions, but there is no solution.
and the road will be blocked closes and the result is a tower with three swords that is, it is a total loss in the future so even if it is realized total loss although now you have money that the person will buy a car has money to buy a car but when it will take to buy a car when you buy it will have a loss maybe it will be a problem with the documentation problem in the engine I don't know so everything
and in the question when we deal with the language of the same arcanum within its values it will increase the situation a lot now the question is again here for him I already explained this I will explain again it costs nothing explanation explanation is I have a mandala for example
I have a tower with three swords on the financial side so it's a serious financial problem a serious financial loss can be a loss that someone lent money and the person will not recover it may be that the person invested in something and there is no way she has the money back at that time bought an object and lost completely the purchasing power debts and other problems that can occur
of great importance. That is, there are really deep financial difficulties here. In the work there is the hermit with the six swords, so it's as if he were negligent at work, or if he is unemployed he doesn't get a job, if he is employed he doesn't leave the place.
But there in house 10, there is a sun with 10 of gold, saying that it will not solve all this wonderfully well, perfectly well. So, depending on where you fall, we will develop the language. But what I really want to get to you is in anachronism. It's in this main part here, where everything is distorted. And then comes my advice to you. Don't try to understand. I know that the great... Ah, but I want to understand. Don't try.
Don't try because if the consultant stays there for a year, two, three, ten years, skimming and making the wrong decision, you will want to give him the solution in a one hour, ten minute consultation? It's wrong. You won't get it and he won't accept it either. Because anachronism means: I'm right. What I did is right, what I thought was right, the step I'm taking is right, I don't see anything wrong. And by the way, I'm the one who always says: I don't know what's wrong.
I don't know why there is this problem, I don't know why it will go wrong, I don't know why there is no solution. I'm doing the right thing. Everything in the head of the consultant is right. So, anachronism, we start from this principle. Don't try to understand the combination. Secret.
Don't try to unravel what it means, even because you would need to have a lot of life experience, or of contexts, or of what is involved, for you to be able to translate the combination a little. Because tarot has a secret. The more life experience you have, the better you will read tarot.
The older you are, the better you will read the tarot. The more experience you have, the better you will interpret the tarot. The more misfortunes you have in your life, the better you will understand the tarot. So, it's not just about earnings that affect life. Life is made of misfortunes and of skirmishes, that the person does not leave the place. And anachronism is that.
she didn't know how to solve, didn't know how to resolve, or doesn't want to, or doesn't understand. Sometimes the person doesn't really understand. How are you going to understand a person who is in a toxic relationship? And the person asks me: "How do I support all this?" It can be aggression, an aggressive relationship, verbally or physically, and it stays years in this relationship. How does the person support this?
And then she always asks: "But when will he improve or when will she improve?" So we have this aspect linked to the person. So at work, when will I be promoted or when will I be successful at work? But the other people involved are always boycotting the person, they know that, but they keep insisting on that work, on that function. So anachronism is when we
or consultant or we believe in something that will solve in the future we wait for miracles we wait for destiny to solve
I've had both male and female consultants asking about alcoholism. So, when will my husband stop drinking? When will my wife stop drinking to take better care of the health of the children, of the house? When will my husband stop drinking so that it only gives fever, this and that? So, when will he stop drinking? If he never did the treatment. And then what is the question of anachronism? It is hope
that something will be resolved in the future. "Oh, do you have debt? What tower with ten gold coins? Do you have debt?" The person says: "No, I borrow, I solve this." "No, no, don't worry, it doesn't affect me." Even in one of the previous classes, I even commented on this, that at the beginning, in the 1980s, on the first days, I saw the tower in the house, sometimes two in the money, and I said that the person was suffering, that the person was in trouble, or "I'm staying in house one,
you are desperate you are desperate you are disappointed you are like that no nothing is ok and I didn't understand the tower because I only played with bigger ones at the time because I didn't understand the tower I didn't use the smaller ones I didn't know about the extension of the manifestation of the tower I didn't know the structure of the bigger one and macrocosm of the smaller one and microcosm one is the form the other is the manifestation
So I took a lot of beating in esoteric fair in the 80s, because I thought that the tower was just disgrace, suffering, hair, losses. When I started working with menorah, not there. If I have here anachronism, tower, a ten of gold, or a ten of any gold with a tower, the person is not even there. I lost nothing, I lost nothing, nonsense, I solve.
So what is anachronism? The tower is loss, serious loss, I can never forget that. But it has gold. So, I didn't understand, I didn't learn from the loss. I'm going to lose again, so here's another message. So anachronism is always something that the person doesn't realize that they are wrong, or they didn't learn, or they are not assimilating
with the day-to-day or with the life experience. So that's why you can't try to understand anachronism. And if only sometimes put it. See a tower with gold? You say: "Ah, don't even talk much." Because she won't want to put it. But look, there was a trouble, there was a difficulty, but you went over it, it's okay. But pay attention, so as not to repeat this, that's what I can tell the person. I can't want to...
and say that she will cry or despair, she won't, because this is anachronism. In all anachronism, the person doesn't do what he actually has to do.
by decision or manifestation. So it's not me, I'm not a psychologist, nor a therapist, nor a psychiatrist, to be able to understand the psycho-emotional levels of the person. I can only translate what Tarot is saying. Here it is saying that the person may not have planned correctly and is in this situation, in this conflict. But you will understand a lot of this when she is asking you, talking to you and telling her story.
Here the Sun, another example, the Sun with six swords. So the Sun, exuberance, peace, love, harmony, all that, but it's with six swords, it's isolated. So it can be an unanswered love, it can be even within a relationship, that she feels a lot of desire, a lot of love, but at the same time she doesn't know what to do, she doesn't know how to transmit love, so it doesn't match me.
to treat the person or tell the person that she is not showing affection. I can say: "Look, you are in the house of love, for example, with only six swords, I can say: "Look, you like your husband, your girlfriend, your girlfriend, but you have difficulty expressing your affection here. I can ask why, but she will say: "Ah, why?" She will apologize, because this is anachronism. She will apologize because she is like that.
So here are many issues that sometimes don't compete with us trying to understand. Eremita with three swords, Eremita is peace, serenity, introspection. Why is he with three swords? With losses, difficulties, so what was to be postponed will be broken now. He made wrong decisions, he didn't know how to be serene, maybe, he didn't know how to reflect, he didn't know how to organize.
But look who's in charge of the greater arcana. That tower, if not learned, will return one day. That sun will manifest at a certain moment of love and affection. And that Eremite is wise, he will know how to solve all this. So what I can say about anachronism is that the greater arcana can be the solution.
for that problem that is being experienced at that moment. But here is a very big discussion about it, okay? Well, here it would be the same thing that we talked about in the example of Peladã,
the sun with six open swords, that is, the person thinks he has power of purchase, but he doesn't, he's already saying he doesn't, he's already saying he's getting into a robbery, right? The hermit is in the middle of the road with three swords, saying that he will absolutely not have much harm, he will not know how to deal with the situation, he may have losses,
But there's Torre with 10 gold in the end, which may be that she consumes the fact, but always with a loss, because she was already saying at the beginning that she didn't have much purchasing power, she didn't have conditions, or she didn't see the issues essentially.
and take questions always in the largest arcanes that they always predominate anyway so only the Eremita and tower so really the person has some question that could be positive but always ends up in some way here in the case ends up in the prejudice that she would not feel in the end that she maybe solve right
Here, in the mandala, the tower with ten gold coins on the financial side, so it's like she has a debt that she doesn't recognize. "Oh, I pay, I don't deny it, I pay when I can."
has a financing, makes another to cover another, is always organizing the material part, but it is a deep debt, right? Tower is always deep debt in house 2. The person can feel this debt and be very worried about it, as if it were three swords, but with ten gold, it will go, it will go to you, okay? It's paid, it's borrowed from someone, it's easy to happen.
In the work, for example, the hermit with three swords, the person may be neglecting the work, may be having difficulties, may lose promotion due to lack of observation. The hermit knows, but maybe he has acted wrongly at that moment, but he will correct himself in the future, because from this loss or modification, he will understand and solve.
Because the greater arcane always predominates over the lesser one. Anachronism is found because the person is not able to deal with that situation. So, anyway, I would say that anachronism ends up giving us information that the person is not very attentive to time and reality. And in house 10, a Sun with six swords,
would have a solution, but she doesn't find a solution. It's positive, but at the same time it comes with six spaces. Maybe she doesn't observe, maybe she lets the opportunities pass. So that's what you're saying. There is a solution, but let the opportunity pass. And then comes the issue of rule number two: the smaller arcana manifests the greater one.
So, no matter how many times the bigger cano says that there is a solution, that there is success, it is the smaller one who will say: "I'm going or I'm not going to success, I do or I don't do it." Because the smallest is this real movement. So, anyway, anachronism only informs us that the person is acting in the wrong way.
and that should review the point of view, review what it is doing, so that it can then reorganize, especially if it is a greater planet, give conditions to this, as the Eremite and as the Sun is, the Tower does not. So, always pay attention to the four formulas, the four little rules, I know it's boring, little rules, but over time,
you will quickly observe all these aspects. So, we stay here with these rules, let's practice them a lot in our future. There are two more games that I'm going to do, which are prayers, I think it's time, today I talked to Cassidy, let's go. I will explain quickly the two strips.
and it will be practiced on Thursday, ok? It will take 5 to 10 minutes. I won't give too much explanation, I'll go a little fast because there are some coordinators who will talk to you too, okay? Let's see here. I'm going to give two strips. You can even use the previous strips that we also learned during the course.
using the Italian and European method. Italian is when we choose the amount of cards we want to work with, and European is when we combine the bigger and smaller arcane. We already trained the Italian method in the course when we only had the bigger arcane, where we chose the amount of the bigger arcane we wanted to work with. Now in European I need all the bigger ones,
And in the case of the Italian, I choose one, two or three to mix, to do according to the situation. Not every kind of game can be done in the Italian method. So, the Golden and Sword Naip, we can talk a lot about practical issues, the day-to-day, of advice, of selling, buying, we can use this combination a lot, just these two Naipes, to mix the European method. So the rule is always this:
the bigger arcanes, take the necessary amount, mix the knives of gold and swords and take the necessary amount, okay? For the shooting we will learn. One is before going to bed, you can even do it today if you want, okay? It's six cards and it's a shooting for the reflection of the day. If you think the day is heavy, today is tomorrow, okay? Or later.
But it's interesting to do this sometimes, to take this point of view of the day, of reflection. The first letter is the energy I'm carrying from my day, how was my day, right? So we can work like this. Letter 2: How can I release energy before going to sleep? Letter 3: Something to reflect on my day. 4: How could I have been more conscious today?
5. How can I make my tomorrow better? 6. A symbol to pay attention to my dreams today. This is very symbolic, very reflective. Each one will have their own experience. Each one is for you to think and evaluate. You can do this at the moment you are...
well or badly, it doesn't matter, but write down the game so you can reflect on the next day or think better. Let's make a draft here, where we will use the same method, we will use the Italian method. So I took the Tower with the 10 of Gold, energy that I am carrying in my day. Now, we are talking about anachronism, so maybe something happened that I didn't give importance to, it's simple like that.
Something happened that, to my eyes, was not problematic. But it may be. Because the gold knife, the mask,
and the path of pain forget about it but two how can I release the energy before sleeping star with the page of gold there in case you have a meditation a prayer or simply a relaxation right that are two very soft things here in this aspect and then she talks about detachment I maybe just let it sleep too house 3
Death with two swords came out here, something to reflect on my day. It may have had some conflict, it may have had some disappointment, but I can never forget what has already been said. In house 1, the energy that I am carrying in my day. I'm not realizing, perhaps, the extent of this conflict that death with two swords has provided us.
All the draft demands sequences. House 1, 2, 3, 4, they speak to each other. So I can't just see them separately. So each house that I open, I have to retain information, to suddenly find solutions in the other houses. House 4, how could I have been more conscious today? The force came out with the 4 of bears.
self-control maybe, talking about the force of self-control and the four of golds, which is retention, which is exactly the person simply understand their point, what they have of power in their hands. So, as I could have been more conscious today, maybe it was the person to have more decisions, everything here will depend, obviously, the person making self-reflection will find solutions. Case 5,
We have here the madman with the swords: "How can I make my tomorrow better?" Maybe lighter, more open, more dynamic, more bold from your point of view, because the madman is bold, that bold person
who does what he wants. Swords are always the personal point of view, your ideology, your way of being. And the swords always emphasize the greater arcane, so the person being herself or trying to be as light as possible.
And a symbol to pay attention to my dreams tonight: the devil with the sword king. Maybe it's a matter of power, something that has to do with power, but not only people, sometimes it can be objects. This last card, a symbol to pay attention, is you lying down and thinking: "When I wake up, I will remember my dreams." This is a mental command that we have to have to remember our dreams.
And with this periodicity we end up remembering. So I'm going to sleep, I'm going to wake up to remember a dream. And then during some question, I don't know, it can be a symbol related to power. So then it will be a dictionary of symbols, if there are doubts, right? Because we are not here talking about tarot anymore, but about a dream symbol.
Related to power. And it can be simple things and objects. This is just a material to reflect, to develop and so on. Increase. Now, this one in particular, the game of success, we will practice it on Thursday. So this one is in the 200 auxiliaries of Tarot, page 114.
It can also be with the other games that you played, but I think focusing on this one can also be more important for you to train and learn a new style. There are five cards. The first card: Career, current work. We are going to talk a lot about our activities. The second card up there: What I should have taken care of in my work, in my career.
House 3: external factors that block my success, my career, my work. House 4: what skills are necessary for me to develop my career, my success and my professional activities. It's always in that sense. And House 5: what to do to boost the success of the career, that is, to get where I want. Success is relative.
It is always what we wish to have in our professional life. Everything here is professional. It can be CLT, it can be autonomous, any area here. The person's work, what they develop. It can be the tarot reader, attending, the teacher, the seller, anyone will analyze the game of success within this premise of what I do, my career and my work. Let's see an example here.
we are playing with the Italian method and the European method only with sword knives and only with gold knives because these two knives together they will give us the vision of the fight that we have our day to day and the gains are fight with swords and gains colors that's why the knife the Italian method is it involves the question of using certain sets of cards to have
A specific strip, a question. The first game, the first card that we have news of cartomancy, with the Tarot cards of the Arcanos Menores, is from 1540, from Francisco Marcolini, or Forcolini, something like that, where there was a rule only with the Golden Knife.
And the movie itself, in Italy, they chose certain naipes, and if you look at the story, you will see that they take the court to play the tarot, take the ace naip, so there is always a method, a specific shooting, where they used all the cards. They have mystical explanations and everything. Here for us, the explanation I'm giving is:
I'm just...
neglecting, wasting time, maybe not organizing correctly, because the two Arcanos talk about professional and material issues, that do not act according to the environment, with organization, with fiducia, with... I was going to say "pear of ox", no. With a lot of work, resilience, with a lot of resilience, so everything here is loose.
House 2, up there, the car with the sword knight, what should I be careful about? Maybe with my intempestive actions, what should I be careful about? The car with two swords. I'm talking about my career and my attitudes. All of these are my attitudes in front of my career. So, the car with two swords, what should I be careful about?
What is the car? It is the search for victory, and the victory in any way, which is the knight of swords, it is the great impetus. So here is a very big impetus, wanting to win anyway, but I already said at the beginning, I can never forget what has already been said, that the career is a little disorganized. House 3, up there, the devil with seven swords, external factors that block.
It may be that people who are bad-intentioned, right? Because the devil is already a smart one. With the Seven of Swords is a smart one. So, external factors. This is talking about the others, it's talking about me. So, notice that here the Seven of Swords does not talk about the consultant, it talks about third parties.
So, someone from outside, can be jealous, can want to give a shit, can not pay, can want to give himself well on the back of the consultant, or whatever. If it's the CLT, the friend is always asking for a favor, or the client always wants advantages, so there's always someone with a lie advantage, because the person is deceiving. Devil with seven spades is deceiving, okay?
I someone blocks me someone harms me speaks badly of me invent my story all this common right normal 4 what skills are necessary the magician with the page of swords that the consultant has to be smart has to be smart has to know how to deal with the situation the consultant has to
know how to deal and organize, be creative and, mainly, be a great seller of himself. A magician with a page of swords sells his own image, he is a great marketer.
and five what to do to drive the success of the career death with King of Gold so moment of changes growth change attitude change behavior and always with investments or always with the idea very well on the ground very solid which is the question of the King of Gold and then we go back to house one look at the contrast of house one with house five these two houses talk a lot
the career and the current job, exactly what I'm doing and house 5 what I should do. So look, these two houses complement each other a lot, so it's time to read, ok? We'll stop here today, then, in these explanations and kisses, we'll be back in the next class. Let me stop here and go back to recording.
