The Initiatic Path in the Arcana of the Tarot and Kabala

CHAPTER LXXXVIII

ARCANUM No. 2

Arcanum number 2 is the Thesis causing the Antithesis.  The Matrix where images take form is shaped and made by means of this Arcanum.

It is the Fountain that accumulates the Waters from the Spring. 

It is the Dual manifestation of the Unity.  The Unity, when it unfolds, gives rise to the Receptive and Productive Femininity in all of Nature.

Kabalistic Sephira: "Chokmah"

Hebrew Letter: "Beth"

Transcendental Axiom: "The wind and waves always favor those who know how to navigate".

Forecasting Element: "Attractions and repulsions, losses and gains, ascents and descents.  Favorable inspirations for the initiative and the secret opposition of others to lead what has been initiated to a good end.”
