VIII - Strength...The LionDescription of the Illustration:In an enchanted wood, a virile, solar young man rides a lion as they chase a nubile, playful young ingenue straddling a lioness; they are both naked. Behind them lies the carcass of a dead ram upon which they have just finished feasting. The Sun shines bright above them, smiling down at them as though blessing their lustful sport. The upper left sphere is yellow (Tiphereth) while the lower right sphere is green (Netzach). Element: Fire, Masculine, Transmissive, Fixed sign
EcstasyNow is the time for the Fool to learn Strength—to confront and tame his fleshly body, his bestial nature, the Fallen Daughter of Malkuth.Strength brings the drives and desires of the body to the forefront, demanding for release—to live lustily, to copulate, to bear progeny, to rip the flesh from the body of one’s enemy, and to build a rock solid Ego that is the center of its own existence. With the mastery of Strength the Fool discovers the bliss, rapture, and ecstasy that were always within him.
