The Eternal Tarot of Alchemy and Kabbalah 03 The Empress

The trinity constitutes an important aspect of many world religions and reflects the generative laws of divine nature. The number three is the synthesis of the previous two arcana, how the masculine / affirmative and feminine / receptive forces combine and reconcile into a perfect unity, the neutral / synthetic principle, to create physical and spiritual life.  As above, so below.

Just as human beings cannot create children without masculine and feminine principles, likewise individuals cannot generate the completely perfected soul without the help of a matrimony. Learn how the number three relates to gnostic psychology through the study of the three brains, the three types of soul within the Kabbalistic tradition (Nephesh, Ruach, and Neshamah), and how the three primary forces of nature mentioned by Gurdjieff and Ouspensky: Affirmation, Negation, and Reconciliation, work within the consciousness. A profound study of the three primary forces of nature aid the practitioner in developing creative comprehension: profound understanding that is based on the creation and development of the soul.
