Correct design of The Fool

He laughs: bearing a sphere containing Illusion in his left hand, but over his right shoulder, and a staff 463 lines long in his right. A lion and a dragon are at his feet, but he seems unaware of their attacks or caresses.

Liber 777

The title bears no resemblance to the description. The idea of the profile appears to relate to the sephiroth. Crowley’s Fool has the lion become a tiger, while the dragon is now a crocodile.

Letter Aleph – A

The Holy Ghost – Fool – Knight-Errant. Folly’s doom is ruin Aleph = The Holy Ghost – Fool – Knight-Errant Peh = Ruin

Aleph

11. Aleph means an Ox, principally because the shape of the letter suggests the shape of a yoke. There is also a reference to the mildness and patience of Harpocrates: indeed, to his sexual innocence. The function of ploughing is clearly the chief idea involved: herein lies a paradox – to be studied in the last act of Parsifal. Aleph relates to the element air. It is related to The Fool, and has the value of 1

RVCh, Ruach – Air

Ruach means air, also breath and mind, thought being the expression in expansion of the union of Chokmah and Binah in the subconscious. Ruach is also translated Spirit – Latin Spiritus. There must be no confusion between this “Spirit” and that symbolized by the letter Shin. The distinctions are of the utmost importance, and so manifold and subtle that the subject demands a complete essay in itself.

God Name of Assiah

YHVH

YHVH is given to Air because Jehovah is Jupiter, the Lord of Air. Yetsirah.

Path of Wisdom

The Eleventh Path is the Scintillating Intelligence, because it is the essence of that curtain which is placed close to the order of the disposition, upper and lower seeds (cause), and this is a special dignity given to it that it may be able to stand before the Face of the Cause of Causes.
