The Lovers: Children of the Voice Divine

On this week’s show we cut straight to the bleeding heart of The Lovers of the Tarot and dissect the matrimonial twins to understand the deeper meaning of the card, its etymological rabbit holes, the Orphic egg, what it means in divination, what is had to do with love, ceremonial magick, its abundant use of traditional Christian symbolism and where it all fits on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. In the extended show we unveil the cards' deeper themes by exploring the references to Grecco-Roman mythology with Castor and Pollux, the twin-faced Janus and its zodiacal association with Gemini. As usual we find ourselves geeking out on the card’s exceedingly clever use of gematria, its Hebrew letter association of Zayin and its roots in Egyptian Hieroglyphs.
