The Elements and the Tarot Suits

Four of the "rings" that go to make up the Cosmic Egg are called "The Elements". The Names of each of these Elements is based on the heating and cooling of water - Fire, Air, Water and Earth, although Earth is not the 'earth' but might be better thought of symbolically as "ice" - frozen or crystalline Water. Despite the symbolic names, every level is regarded as being ‘terrestrial’ and not ‘celestial’ . And only the Earth level is capable of being perceived with our 5 senses, which means a great deal might be defined as "dark energy". These Elements are found as the Suits in the Tarot cards. Here they are called Disks, Swords, Cups and Wands and in turn these eventually find their way into playing cards as hearts, diamonds, clubs and spades. In other words, the Elements form the backbone of many esoteric symbol systems , so that colours, architectural [masonic] patterns, the vowels of the alphabet , even the so called continents of the T-O maps are related to the Elements by their correspondences. And the Spiritual Path has as its objective the rise above all things terrestrial, and thus a rise above the Elements, to get to the celestial. Symbolically to stop being just one of the suits and become a King or Queen.
