Radiant: Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot- Ace of Pentacles
The Rider-Waite-Smith- Ace of Pentacles, is the equivalent to a seed. Again, Waite chose a more prosaic meaning for his card. Therefore, an Angelic hand supports the Pentacle symbol of earth and the ascended man (pentacle). In the background a rose covered arbor is displayed. The Rose is the symbol of the female aspect of fertile energy and the arbor is a symbol for the Womb that is penetrated by the phallic path or the Masculine aspect of the Divine Creative. The Lilies in the foreground also represent the Female Divine Creative and the fecund power of renewal, resurrection, and growth. All this hints at the power that begins creation. Hence, the fruitful garden on this card.
The Fairy Tarot-Ace of Autumn
The Aces of all Tarot Suits are under the influence of Kether, the first Sephiroth on the Tree of Life (Hebrew God Name-Eheieh: meaning "I Will Be"), whose color is white and is symbolized as the Point, The Crown, and the Swastika. If you have been following the blogs, you know the Point is to imply completeness unto itself, without dimension or external definition.
The rose and lily garden are shown on this Rider-Waite-Smith card. The white lilies symbolize purity, and the Rose Arbor represents love. The world of possibilities is wide open to you now and becomes a promise if you engage it. So do something, take a hike, go on a bike ride, enter a spa, start a new hobby, etc. Hence, live your life and let the good things come to you.
The Fairy Tarot-Ace of Autumn is Pentacles in traditional tarot. Here is a card that represents a wonderful windfall of unexpected resources that arrive to help you pursue your dreams. Shown is a young fairy sitting on a great potential for knowledge. Hence it is implied that this is time to use your knowledge and resources wisely. You will be able to turn knowledge into abundance.
The Earth/Erda/Gaea governs the body and our knowledge of it and the instincts and sensations which this knowledge brings about. She'll often visit the seeker, as an animal guide (the Homo Sapiens-Sapiens is also an animal) for her senses are those of manifested beings of her organic material. She also controls the loving relationship with this body, something that our Spirit must learn, as we have been granted by Earth, the freedom to control it with the Macro Cosmic Wisdom of our Solar/Soul inheritance.
We come from stars, and must join the Stellar Intelligence, with that of Earth. "As above, so below". We didn't come here to "ascend"; we are the "descended" masters of the Trinity of Mind who must master form as well. From the 4 worlds we have progressed to get here. Once again, sometimes going down is up. Yod Heh Vau Heh.
The Astrological meaning of the earth element implies imaginative and productive states of consciousness.
