BIEDERMEIER TAROT BY PIATNIK, CARD OF CONSTANCY

Designing your own   Future.

 





The Sun is Constancy, a portrayal of our origin, the continuation of life, referring to constancy (Ra) from Sanskrit Re small particle, atom and time (Horus) from Sanskrit horA. To understand how these names originate from the Sanskrit language, one should go back to the origin of 'Egypt', which comes from the Greek Aegyptus, the Greek pronunciation of the Sanskrit name 'Hwt-Ka-Ptah'. "Ha means Supreme Spirit, calling, paradise, meditation, knowledge. Hwt, also connected to HavarNa, means omega. The other word is Ka - Soul and the last word Ptah from japita and japta – whisper", Together, Hwt-Ka-Ptah, 'the last whisper of the spirit,'. The city name Memphis also traces back to Sanskrit mem (my) and phi (deflection), protection from the solar radiation, the radiant energy emitted by the Sun.




The imagery of the Sun is rich with symbolism. It represents our innermost light known as the Arc and consciousness, the Covenant, often referred to as "psychic energy." This energy encompasses love, thought, creativity, and knowledge. When this card appears in a reading, it suggests that the querent is a step closer to experiencing enlightenment and higher consciousness. It is a time when one's inner knowledge, symbolized by the Tattva, (truth, philosophy) aligns with the principles of Themis from Greek mythology—balance, justice, and truth.When we delve into the ancient teachings surrounding the Sun, we encounter a concept far more abstract than our daily sunrise and sunset. The "primordial Sun" mentioned in ancient texts and mystical traditions is not the physical Sun but an emblem of the original creative force, a spark that ignited the universe's existence. This primordial Sun is often described as a "string," an entity smaller than the smallest known particles in our physical realm. It is said to be more diminutive than a quark, which is currently one of the smallest measured elements of matter. The notion that this string appears two-dimensional yet defies such categorisation is a testament to its enigmatic nature. It challenges our understanding of dimensions and the very fabric of reality.
