The sixth card is translated from the visual language of the Tarot into the poetry of Solomon. For a dark-haired woman with an impudent face clad in a red robe seizes the shoulder of the young man while another, with fair hair and dressed in a blue mantle, makes appeal to his heart with a chaste gesture of her left hand.

<\/p>

At the same time, above, a winged infant archer, standing out against a white sphere emitting red, yellow and blue flames, is about to let fly an arrow directed at the other shoulder of the young man. Does one not hear a voice which says: “I have found you”, and another which says : “Those who seek me find me” ?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The choice before the young man, the Lover, is between the vows of obedience, poverty and chastity and the way of power, richness and debauchery. The three vows are in essence memories of paradise, where man was united with God (obedience), where he possessed everything at once (poverty) and where his companion was at one time his wife, his friend, his sister and his mother (chastity).\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The arrow of fire, of the flame of the Eternal brings about true celibacy as well as true marriage. The heart of the monk is pierced just as the heart of the fianc\u00e9 on the eve of the wedding.

<\/p>

Other beings surrounding us may seem to have a less real existence than ourselves. Yet it is love that awakens us to the reality of ourselves, of others, of the world and of God.

<\/p>

All forms of love (charity, friendship, paternal love, maternal love, filial love, brotherly love) derive from the same primordial love root of the fact of the couple Adam-Eve.


Love is a cascading current that tends to fill and inundate all.<\/p>



This is the inverse of Sigmund Freud’s pansexual doctrine. For Freud “libido” or sexual desire is the basis of all human psychological activity. However the whole of love is to sexual desire as white light containing the seven colours is to the colour red. Freud’s libido is only a single colour seperated from the whole.
There are six more aspects to love that Freud ignores.


Just as Karl Marx saw homo oeconomicus<\/em>, so Sigmund Freud saw homo sexualis<\/em> as the basis of homo sapiens.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFreud’s student Alfred Adler advanced the doctrine of homo potestatis<\/em> that man’s will to power plays the leading role in the foundation of the human being.\n

\n\nCarl Gustav Jung, while admitting the partial truth of these two theories, through his clinical experience discovered a much deeper truth.Thus thanks to Jung, man is known fundamentally to be homo religiosus<\/em> as well as partially homo sexualis, homo potestatis<\/em> and homo oeconomicus<\/em>. Jung discovered the divine breath at the core of the human being.\n

\nJung explored psychic layers in succession. Correponding to the layers of archeology, palaeontology and geology, Jung treats psychic layers as the living past of the soul.\nNothing is lost.

  1. Eve listened to the voice of the serpent. The serpent is horizontal. It claimed that the source of light would be transferred from God to man. Before the Fall the intelligence of Adam-Eve was vertical. They listened only to God. Obedience is is devotion without reserve to the voice from above. But now Eve compared two voices – as if they belonged to the same plane. This is the origin of doubt and of disobedience.<\/li>\n \t
  2. She “saw that the fruit was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes.” (Genesis iii.6). Now the voice of the serpent vibrated within her being. She was induced to seek experience. This was the beginning of greed, the principle opposed to poverty.<\/li>\n \t
  3. She “took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some of it to her husband, and he ate.” (Genesis iii.6). The third stage of temptation is to escape from doubt by plunging into experience – and making the other take part. Here is the beginning of unchastity.\nTo make experiments based on doubt is the essence of carnal, psychic and spiritual unchastity. The spiritual world does not suffer experimenters. One seeks, one asks, one knocks at its door. But one does not open it by force. One waits for it to be opened.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Grace is the doctrine concerning chaste relationship between what is above and what is below. God is the source of illuminatory and revelatory grace. He cannot be grasped, but He can reveal Himself. Conscious breathing in of the reality of grace is Christian Hatha-yoga. Hatha-yoga<\/em> is the vertical breathing of prayer and benediction.
    In other words one opens oneself to grace and one receives it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDear Unknown Friend, if you have knowledge of theology, you will recognise the doctrine of the Catholic Church concerning the relationship betweeen work and grace.\nYou will reject Pelagianism, according to which it is only work (or effort) which counts, and also Luther’s Protestantism, according to which it is only grace which counts.

    \n\nMeanwhile the work of redemption began with the repetition of the three primordial temptations. This time the Son of Man was tempted in a terrestrial wilderness, and it was not the serpent who tempted but AntiChrist, “the prince of the world”, Nietzsche’s Superman.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    The Antichrist, the ideal of biological and historical evolution without grace<\/em>, is not an entity created by God, but rather the egregore<\/em> or phantom generated by the evolution opened up by the serpent – that science studies and teaches.

    <\/p>

    He appeared to Karl Marx and showed him “in an instant all the kingdoms of the world” where all the slaves of the past are transformed into sovereign masters, who no longer obey God, having dethroned him; nor do they obey Nature, having subjugated her.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAnd the phantom of humanity has appeared to many others.\nHe appeared also to the Son of Man in the desert.

The three temptations of the Son of Man in the wilderness were his experience of the directing impulses to evolution. They test the tree vows of obedience, chastity and poverty. Matthew begins his account with the last trial.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThen Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
    \nAnd he fasted forty days and forty nights, and afterward he was hungry.
    \nThe tempter came and said to him:
    \n“If you are the Son God,\ncommand these stones to become loaves of bread.”
    \n(Matthew iv, 1 – 3)\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThis is the essence of the aspiration of humanity in the scientific epoch.\nSynthetic resins, synthetic rubber, synthetic fibre, synthetic vitamins, synthetic proteins and . . . eventually perhaps synthetic bread!

    \n\nThe operation proposed by the tempter is the dominating motif of the doctrines overrunning the world today, which regard the economic life as primary and the spiritual life as an “ideological structure” built upon the economic base.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMan shall not live by bread alone,
    \nbut by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNot only the spirit and soul of man are able to live, i.e. to receive impulses, forces and substances from above, but also his body. To cite only the cases that are well-verified: Teresa Neumann lived solely from Holy Communion for decades, Saint Catherine of Siena lived seven years from Holy Communion alone; Saint Lidvina of Scheidam, Rotterdam, likewise for many years lived exclusively from Holy Communion.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe next temptation is against chastity:\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThen the devil took him to the holy city,\nand set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him:
    \nIf you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written:
    \n“He will give his Angels charge of you”, and
    \n“On their hands they will bear you up,\nlest you strike your foot upon a stone”.
    \nJesus said to him: Again it is written,
    \n“You shall not tempt the Lord your God!”
    \n (Matthew iv, 5 – 7)\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThis was the temptation of chastity. For chastity excludes all trial. The trial is the essence of what the Bible designates as “fornication’. Fornication is threefold: spiritual, psychic and carnal. This is why the prophets of Israel stigmatised the spiritual fornication of the people of the Old Alliance each time that they let themselves be seduced by the cults of “strange gods”.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAgain the devil took him to a very high mountain,
    \nand showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory;
    \nand he said to him:
    All these I will give you,\nif you will fall down and worship me.
    \nThen Jesus said to him:
    Begone, Satan! For it is written,\n“You shall wor
    ship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.”

    The Sixth Arcanum of the Tarot, “The Lover”, evokes the three temptations and the three vows. One cannot be “chaste” without being “poor” and “obedient”; just as one cannot renounce the divine ideal in favour of the ideal of the superman, without at the same time falling into the region of trial (experimentation) where there is no immediate certainty, and into the region of the law of the serpent;<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
