Hello,

Could you please shed some light on the origin of the symbols that are not spoken about in tarot and kabbalah nor in the lectures. These symbols are at the superior section of the card. I know that some are magical glyphs relating to each sephira (which are generally in the centre), but there are other symbols that are not spoken about on the right and left hand side. I feel they must have some significance, otherwise they would not be on the card. I have severally instructors in the past but no one is aware of their meaning.

Thank you.

I am still uncertain about the symbols of the top right. However, the symbols on the top left of are Egyptian Hieroglyphs corresponding with the letters of the Hebrew alphabet. For example, in the card of the Magician, we find the Hebrew א Aleph, which corresponds to the Egyptian Hieroglyph for "A" on the top left. Therefore the top left symbols are the Egyptian equivalent of the Hebrew alphabet. See the following reference below:

The correspondences are not perfect, but are too accurate to dismiss. If I can find more information about the other symbols of the Tarot, I will post it. :)

Joyful in hope, suffering in tribulation, be thou constant in thy prayer.

Benedictis, qui venit in nomine Domini. Osanna in excelsis.

"Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!"

Thank you this sheds a little more light on the issue and makes the cards even more profound.
