The Perfect. . . True will?

The Perfect. . . HGA?

The Perfects are capitalized, suggesting proper nouns.

nay, are none. . . . It could be reinforcement of the last verse as in, indeed no other's shall say nay. Or it could be preparation for the next verse, as in none is Nothing, the secret key.

This has been messing with me because it seems to fly in the face of 0=2.

AW, I like yours better than what my little brain spewed out. Since there were 14 words in the line, I was playing around with which Minor Arcana card positions the 2nd and 5th card in the series might be.

I wouldn't be surprised if that got you somewhere.

Fun with numbers is a new experience with me. It didn't occur to me to count the words. According to Goodwins Cabalistic Encyclopedia. . .

The 14th path on the tree, Daleth.
The number of phalanges in the human hand. Yod?
The number of phalanges in the human foot. Motion?
The number of bones in the human face. I like this one. And it goes with the proper noun thing.
But my favorite- Gold.

Thanks, Cardlady, I am going to let these swirl a while and see what settles.

And we're on the 5th letter on the 5th sphere, right?
heh sitting on/in geburah (again, I don't know the proper spellings)
 

Always Wondering

Oh, please, I can't even spell English. :rolleyes:

From my Golden Dawn material-
Heh . . . window, value The breath- all that which animates, air, life being.

It's still messing with me. I cannot make Art from it yet. :laugh:

AW
?
The Perfect and the Perfect are one Perfect and not two; nay, are none!
1 + 1 = 2 is the easy way of writing it but it is really +1 + -1 = 0.

In a simplified way of expressing my understanding of it the 2 is not 2 'things' they are the two sides of one issue or value that added give 0. Hence, all polarities can be extracted from 0 . The zero is perfect, the duality with 2 polarites that is extracted is perfected (although not really one ) and each polaritiy by itself is perfect .

Did that make any sense ?

I understand it on one level, but not how to apply it.

Actually, I never thought it about it this way. My lust of result has led me to believe that polarity is bad. :| I guess I've been thinking in terms of two halves make a whole. I knew better, but not really, ya know?

This was very helpful.
