Hi Kiama
I reckon ya gotta study these things from a thelemic perspective (Crowley WAs one you know ... eventually)
This is the NEW Aeon, one of its aspects is not only the equality of men and women, but a specific and new and worthwhile function and relationship of
both. What are Kings and Queens any way, who is ruling the roost here? Are we talking about an internal co-equal Ancient Egyptian system of regency (even though externaly it WAS the King who was the boss (with 2 or 3 exceptions), is it medieval where the king rules and the queen sits next to him and shuts up? "behind every great man is a good woman" , bit of a platitude?
Women had less power, now they are coming closer to equality. men have had the power .... hey! what's gonna happen to us in the new Aeon? WE wont be redundent will we? Perhaps we wont even allow equality, maybe we will give it all up and become subservient S.N.A.G.S. ?
Not on ya life? Ever noticed how when guys are 'firing' they get all hyped up, adventuroues gung ho! Yeah! Well thats the knight spirit. They wont be allowed to call alll the shots anymore, and create the messes they did before (with this unnatural and unbalanced rulking) The woman has a new vision, lets follow that for a while. The Queen rules now , the knight goes out and makes sure her rule is followed in the kingdom.' Power ' has passed from the first reckless adventurous part oif the spirit and into the more stable ruling queen. The knight energy still comes first as the first onrush of the energy and the queen '2nd' as the stabilizing force, but the queen rules and the knight uses his masculine vigour and fire and force to go out there and do something. All this is repeated in the Lust card, the lion man knight is the vehicle, the woman,queen is the director and visionary, the reins are symbolic and the enterprise is mutual. Observe the womans role in the card, and the mans (come on guys develop those 7 heads -or is 8 now that look closer?) Its the new tantric formular for sex, love, relationship and is repeated, I believe in the Knight Queen progression . The process is also internal with your anima / animus. Also see Crowleys LIBER RESH ritual, visualising Ra at the helm of the solar boat and Tahuti and prow (Ra, rowing, power force mars, knight, lion/beast - Tahuti at prow, the lookout and direction giver, the plotter of the course and communicator to the helm; the Lust, woman, Queen, mercurial force (but all under the solar lion)
