Fig. 1.13.8 King of Disks – the Legislator of Matter and Finance. An oil or gas pipeline. "Black gold", "Liquid money"131.132

.

The defining feature of the King of Disks – he is the Law for Matter (or Finance). Power passes THROUGH him, he conducts it. It doesn't "revolve around" him, as is the case of the Queen.

.

Ace of Disks

.

A "new Russian" is planning to go on holiday to Cyprus.

His personal secretary arrives first and goes for a walk on the beach

with the owner of the 5-star hotel.

– And what's this?

– What do you mean? The seashore. Pebbles.

– Pebbles – no, that won't do, the boss does not like the stuff. Get rid of the pebbles, and pour

white sand everywhere.

– But that would cost a fortune!

– We're paying! Everything's gotta be just right!

The next day, the beach is covered with sand.

– And what's this?

– It's the sea!

– What sea? It's a filthy puddle! In short, clean up the sea, change the color,

the tide should roll in every 30 seconds by 55 centimeters.

– But this is underwater engineering work, very expensive stuff, as I'm sure you realize!

– We're paying! Everything's gotta be just right!

– And what's this? What's all that noise and racket?

– It's the seagulls?! They always live around here.

– No seagulls. Get rid of them all! On second thought, leave two – they can walk along the beach together, but no flying, under any circumstances.

– But that would wreak havoc on the environment, and it would also entail training of seagulls!

– We're paying! Everything's gotta be just right!

After some time, all the work is completed.

Finally, the boss himself arrives. Checks into the penthouse suite.

Walks to the sea along the clean white sand, admires the two seagulls,

as they stroll lovingly together by the seashore. Sits down on a lounge chair, takes a deep breath

of fresh sea air, and says:

– My God! Such beauty and splendour! These are pleasures that even money can't buy.

Aces, according to the Kabbalah, are a primal source of Power, a manifestation of the Absolute, an overwhelming power or force, a force majeure.

An object, a process when Matter or Finance "overwhelmingly" enter the world.

Accordingly, the Ace of Disks is the "overwhelming" force of Matter or Finance.

In the Material world, it may symbolize, for example, a bulldozer or a Fed printing press133.

.

Please, note:

The concept of an "overwhelming" force or power depends on the "caliber" of the subject or observer.

For an ant, an "overwhelming" force may be a baby finger. For a mountain the size of Fujiyama, not every nuclear explosion is an "Ace".

Fig. 1.14.8 Ace of Disks – the overwhelming power of Matter and Finance. A large, economically profitable deposit of stock-exchange assets – oil, gas, lithium, and other mineral resources.141

.

Please, note:

In our Solar System, the main142 source for the manifestation of the Absolute is, in essence, a star named the "Sun".

All other manifestations of Matter are, one way or another, only a consequence of its activity.

.

The defining feature of the Ace of Disks is its subjectively "overwhelming" power in Material or Financial matters.

.

Knight of Disks

.

Got the urge for some tea… and all hell broke loose:

Bun, butter, sausage, cookies, sweets…

On the whole, turned out quite well…

About three kilos' worth…

.

The Knight, according to the Kabbalah, is going or being with the Flow, with a stream, a trend.

An object, a process, where the Force has swept up the Stalker and carried him off.

Accordingly, the Knight of Disks is going/being with the Flow of Matter or Finance.

For example, a bullet flying.

.

Please, note:

The distinctive feature of the Knight card is that the object remains still and motionless, like the Knight. While, at the same time, being in motion, like the horse on which the Knight is sitting.

This contradiction makes the Knight card immediately recognizable.

Particularly in hot and dry countries, this can be an ordinary water supply line, a water canal, a river. The Nile River, for instance.

The main, but not the only. Not to mention the fact that our Solar System is, in fact, a binary star system, it simply obeys formative Cosmic vibrations. Therefore, our "Ace" – the Sun is merely a "zero" on a Galactic scale.
