Scrying On the Tarot Golden Dawn Method

[RockDemon]

Hello, everybody! So Recently I began scrying on the tarot cards with the method described in the book. So the method is the following. One invokes the energies of the card by tracing the proper hexagrams of the ruling sephirotic planet, then the Sigil and then the corresponding Hebrew letter. All the while chanting appropriate names. But what about cards that have zodiac signs? For instance the Moon card. How do I invoke it by this method? And what about the sun? For invoking the sun, I should trace all the hexagram because the Sun is in the middle?

So which book is it you're using? [smile2]

Ah yes sorry I forgot about mentioning it

I use the default book that comes with the deck - The New Golden Dawn Ritual Tarot: Keys to the Rituals, Symbolism, Magic and Divination by Chic Cicero, Sandra Tabatha Cicero.

Are you talking about just the Major Arcana? [geek2]

[RockDemon]

Yes. In the book it says one can scry on the minors as wellby summoning corresponding angels but right now I want to scry on the trumps.

[RockDemon]

BUMP!

Seriously nobody knows how to scry on Tarot GD style?

[RockDemon]

At least, I found the answer for the Sun. I post it here in case anyone else will come wandering.
http://www.qabalah.dk/hexa.html
God-name of the Sun is Yod Heh Vav Heh Eloah Vav Daath. And it's letter is Resh.

I believe the GD name of the sun(Tiphareth 6th Sephira) is Jehova(yehova)aloah va daath. Yod He Vau He is the formula of tetragrammaton. It starts with Chockmah, and emanates to Binah, Chesed(Gedulah), and Gebura. The Yod is the father who is self begotten, "He" is the co-equal mother, vau is the son(sun), and the final "He" is the daughter.

Cheers

Thank you for your reply dear Spida. You are correct about everything concerning the tetramagaton. Moreover it the unpronounceable name of the god,however some pronounce it as Jehovah. But I don't like pronouncing the unpronounceable so instead of saying Jehovah Eloah vax Daath I say Yod Heh Vav Heh eloah va Daath.

[RockDemon]

So this chart almost resolves all of the questions. Need to figure out only about the maternals' invocations.

Yes, I use this one as well. In fact, this is one of the best pictures of the tree of life on the internet. However, it doesn't have the planetary correspondences of the paths.

[CCoburn]

Rock Demon,

I believe all the information you seek, not contained in the image of the Tree itself. Can be found in Liber 777. Such as the planetary associations for the Paths, and Tarot attributions.

It's the book of correspondences for the 10 Sephiroth, and the 22 paths.

Maybe you know about this also, but there it is if not.

[RockDemon]

@Spida Do you scry on the Tarot cards themselves? What method are you using? I read your journal of scryings but there as I can get you only scry on the sephirots not on the paths. How would you scry on the paths?

[CCoburn]

If I were to do this today. I would create a ritual for the path in each one of the four qabalistic worlds. Starting with Atziluth, descending to Assiah.

This would involve making a candle for each world using the color association, a fragrance that would be used for all four. The name of the world written in Hebrew. The Hebrew letter of the path, and any other related Hebrew words/letters you want to include.
Any other symbolism you can include that corresponds.

I try to use the king and queen scale of colors for my apparatus if possible.
As much meditation as there is time for.
Everyday until the candle is burned down, then move down to the next world.

It's a rough outline of how I would do it. You could use Liber 777 to create a custom ritual for yourself.

[CCoburn]

I chose to make candles with the color associations, but they could be incorporated in any manner. The colors are important because each one has it's own unique frequency in the EM Spectrum. Granted, pigment colors, such as candle making are not as pure as spectral colors, but they suffice. I presume the frequency of a color associated with any particular Aethyr is related to it somehow.

[RockDemon]

Oh, I am sorry I didn't notice your reply thus far. You gave me so valuable insights. Thank you.

Yes, colors are very important. Well, the vibration, in general, is one of the mysteries of the universe. I think I'll also use the corresponding musical tones. For instance, during scrying on the High Priestess, I can play the G# through the headphones or speakers.

EDIT:
Here is a tone generator.

I haven't used any specific notes, but I sing my invocations/evocations before and after the candle lighting. Lately anyways. The one i'm using now goes like this: Holy Sephira of Netzach in the kingdom of Atziluth, Jehova Tzabaoth. I even sing this at various times during the day outside of the ritual. Using the same format and descending to Assiah. I do the first part in a monotone(not sure the key), then I drop down a few intervals to an octave and sing the last one to three syllables. You know when its right because it feels right.

More specifically:
I'd sing this part in a monotone: Holy Sephira of Netzach in the kingdom of(last three syllables drop down a few intervals to an octave), and sing: Atziluth. Then sing the GD name in the beginning key: Jehova Tza(last syllable drop down low again, it sounds like the word "boat") baoth.

Not easy to describe, but easier to do.
