KS Strength

Karpathy-Smith Tarot Strength

Karpathy-Smith Tarot Strength
If I defined Strength with only a few words, those would be silent resistance.
Strength can be assimilated to Courage in the larger context of the seven virtues, one of the four Cardinal virtues among Prudence, Justice and Temperance. In the enumeration of moral virtues, Courage was re-placed by Fortitude. Patience and perseverance are attributes related to Fortitude. On the other hand, Strength also can be associated with Chastity as opposed to Lust, one of the seven deadly sins.
Some of these characteristics are complementary, and others are interconnected or overlapping each other. Subsequently, their association with the Major Arcana cards is arguable. Both the attributes, names and the iconography of these archetypes have changed over time. Especially studying the decks of Etteilla, one may find disturbing discrepancies. Nothing is easy and straightforward as one may believe.

The Karpathy-Smith deck is a limited, 780 copies only, refreshing Tarot, a reimagining of the original Rider-Waite deck using mixed media techniques.
78+2 cards, 310 gsm, casino quality card stock, linen finish.
8-sided, accordion, printed mini-booklet, numbered, personalized, including instructions for 2 spreads, upright and reversed meaning for all the 78 cards and the diagram for the 32 paths of Wisdom.
Two packing options, rigid box and velvet bag.

Knowledge and understanding

Understanding and knowledge

Understanding and knowledge
Someone sent me a link to an article about Alchemy, the internet is full of them. Platitudes, I would say, stereotypes, inconsistencies and half-wisdoms for housewife whiches and weekend wizards. As with all the other occult and esoteric topics, most of the available materials are rubbish fake commercial products. The commonly accessible materials are ‘exoteric’ knowledge, as opposed to ‘esoteric’ knowledge, which, by definition, is not at the reach of everyone.
Without an understanding of these matters, it is impossible to discern between fake and real knowledge.
On the other hand, as Gurdjieff noted, “Knowledge is one thing; understanding is another thing. (…) People often confuse these concepts and do not clearly grasp what is the difference between them. Knowledge by itself does not give understanding. Nor is understanding increased by an increase of knowledge alone. Understanding depends upon the relation of knowledge to being. Understanding is the resultant of knowledge and being. And knowledge and being must not diverge too far, otherwise, understanding will prove to be far removed from either. At the same time, the relation of knowledge to being does not change with a mere growth of knowledge. It changes only when the being grows simultaneously with knowledge. In other words, understanding grows only with the growth of being.”
First of all, understanding is interior, while knowledge is exterior – similar to the ‘esoteric’ and ‘exoteric’ concepts.
Secondly, understanding is… More at https://www.patreon.com/posts/44614954
