The Masculinity Card - December 14, 2024
America is in a lukewarm civil war over freedom rights with respect to abortion and sexual identity. On these two fronts Trump trumped the Democrats when he played the masculinity card to prevail in his presidential bid. A majority of his supporters believe “the gays” infringe on their sense of self and the pro-life tenet of their religious beliefs are violated by abortions. Albeit, their concern about life is mainly for the fetus and not so much for the mother. The Bible does state same sex marriage is an abomination (Leviticus 18:22) but interpretations of the Hebrew verse can vary. In the Republican world view the taboo is explicit and extends to one’s sexual identity dictated at conception when life begins for them. This ties up to their definitions of “innocence” and “purity” and hence abortion is a crime, or should be, and it is forbidden to change one’s gender after birth. . . .

Leviticus 16:8-22 (KJB)
16:8 And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
16:9 And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
16:10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
16:11 And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering which is for himself:
16:12 And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the LORD, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail:. . .

Hebrew Letter and the Tarot
Uniquely, the Holy Hebrew Letters are considered feminine in nature. Each has three aspects to their meaning:1) a vocalization sound or silent breath; 2) an alpha-numerical value distinct from her alphabetical order, ie the letter in the 12th position is Lamed, and she has a numerical value of 30. Kabbalists find mystical associations in a coded numerical relationships between words of the Torah that equal the same value. This is called "gamatria"; and 3) a symbolic-spiritual aspect arrayed in each of the letter's form or architecture. Even if you don't know the Hebrew language, by scanning the text the sacred geometry of the letters will impart meaning and knowledge to your subconscious. God created the world with speech, which breaks down to words, which breaks down to letters.
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God" John 1:1.

"While deep into my writings something seemingly miraculous can arise. In the metaphorical dark cave of contemplations an oh so fleetingly flicker of light appears. It is a flash of awareness from my intuition. I can feel a flow of heightened energy coursing through me. My body heats up in its rush and the mind fills with a new idea, or a new way of wording. To fully appreciate this phenomenon of pure joy, derived from a sense of knowingness, one might have to shut out the world. To close off can help us to be aware of this subtle, sublime spark of creativity and insights."
