104 777 REVISED watery spots. 14. These are traditional also. The Fig is Venusian on account of its sexual symbolism. The Peach belongs to Venus on account of its soft beauty and sweetness, the external splendour of its bloom being easily brushed off, its tendency to rot and the prussic acid in its kernel. The Apple is traditionally appropriate to Venus on account of the legend of the Fall. There are however various traditions concerning the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. 21. The Hyssop is Jupiterian on account of its religious use in lustration. It might perhaps be more properly attributed to Chesed. The Oak is traditionally sacred to Jupiter, perhaps because it is the king of the trees as Jupiter is king of the gods. The Poplar is given on account of its soft and easily swollen wood and because of its great height. The Fig is Jupiterian because of its soft, swollen and, so to speak, sensual pulp; and also perhaps because of its rich purple colour, suggesting episcopal vestments. Arnica is attributed to Jupiter for its use in relieving pain. Cedar has a traditional value in religious work—its perfume is devotional according to the testimony of intuition, and it is supposed to preserve things in its neighbourhood from the attacks of moths, etc. 27. Absinthe and Rue—these attributions are traditional. 30. The first three attributions are obvious. The Nut is solar, as being a microcosm of Life, the fruit being also the seed. Galangan is specially sacred to the Sun; it is of the ginger family. 32. The Ash is given in connection with the phrase “ashen pale.” (The real nature of the tree is more properly solar.) In the other cases, in connection with the ideas of death, melancholy, poison, etc. The Elm is Saturnian on account of its murderous habit of dropping boughs without warning. The wood is also traditionally the best available the best available for coffins. THE ZODIAC 15. The Olive is sacred to Minerva, but Geranium has a scarlet variety which is precisely the colour of Aries in the King Scale. The
EXPLANATIONS OF THE ATTRIBUTIONS 105 Tiger Lily is a traditional attribution. 16. Again traditional. We might possibly add giant trees of all species to this sign. 17. Hybrids are here for the same reason as in the previous column. Orchids might perhaps better be attributed to Yesod or Capricorn for obvious reasons; they are found here on account of their duplex characteristics. 18. The Lotus is the typical flower of Water and the Moon. 19.* 20. The Snowdrop and the Lily suggest the modest purity of the sign. Narcissus refers to the solitary tradition. Mistletoe is indicated by the macroscopic appearance of semen. 22. This attribution is traditional. 24. The Cactus has watery pulp poisonous spikes. The Nettle is treacherously Martial. All treacherous and poisonous planets may be attributed to Scorpio. 25. The Rush is used for making arrows. 26. Yohimba—see line 9. Thistle is hard, stubborn and spikely. Orchis root is connected with the Cult of Pan. Indian Hemp is tough and fibrous, thus used for making ropes; but see the Column XLIII dealing with vegetable drugs for other properties of this plant. 28. Cocoanut; this attribution is doubtful. There may be some connection with Juno as giving milk or with the symbol of the Waterbearer, because the tree gives us fruit from the air. 29. Opium is given because of its power to produce a peaceful dreamy condition which is liable to end in a stagnation of the mental faculties. Unicellular Organisms are possibly attributed here because they are so frequently found in pool. The Mangrove is not merely a tree of the swamp, but actually produces swamps. * [No explanation given, not that one was needed. — T.S.]
