The Judgment

XX - The Judgment...

The Transformer

Description of the Illustration:

Mighty Grecian god Hades stands sovereign in his Underworld. The Egyptian god Anubis oversees an assembly line of small earthen coal people, grasping them one by one and placing each in the fiery furnace of the planet Pluto, wherein the refuse is burned away and what is left - in all its beauty or squalor - is all that remains, even disappears, as some never make it through facing themselves fully. From the opposite side of the forge arise lovely, intricate jewel-like people - each wholly unique and individual, for all which remains after the fire of Hades is the Truth. Nuit creates the ceiling of the Underworld, but now her stars have been replaced with resplendent jewels of all types and sizes. King Hades grasps the largest and most miraculous diamond in his hand, triumphant. The upper left sphere is white (Kether) while the lower right sphere is yellow (Tiphereth).

Astrological Association: Pluto

Element: Fire, Androgynous


Purification

Once enlightened, the Fool initiates his own Judgment. He is purified by fire, which consumes him and destroys all his lies and refuse, and he crosses the Abyss to be absorbed into All That Is, all the while retaining the truth of himself.


The representative of the Father is no longer necessary for him, for he sees the glory and ecstasy of the True Father.


He attains the Holy Grail and becomes the Redeemer.
