lioness. In K.D.L.C.K. (p. 501) kneading.<br />

"Lion; great and with abundant shaggy hair, also<br />

fierce. In the Zohar Noah refers her to the sphere<br />

of Geburah, and moreover in Job 4: 1 I, "the old<br />

lion" indicates a total lack of influence.<br />

V ~ W end, tail (Aramaic). The lion's tail in Key<br />

5 after-birth; secundine.' Deuteronomy<br />

28:57: (The woman who lives a luxurious life,<br />

her eye shall be evil) "And toward the afterbirth<br />

that comes from between her feet, and toward<br />

her child whom she shall bear, when she eats<br />

them for want of all things in the siege and<br />

distress with which your enemy shall harass you<br />

in all your cities." Part of the covenant which the<br />

Lord gave to Moses.<br />

7 will, good will, delight, favor, good<br />

pleasure, acceptance, favor, satisfaction<br />

graciousness, and good will. With different<br />

pointing: intent, purpose, determination, desire,<br />

wish, inclination; purpose. Name of the 2oth path<br />

of Yod. It is good-will toward man and toward<br />

the rest of creation. The formative potency of the<br />

creative hand shapes things favorably for<br />

mankind. The star in the Hermit's Lantern or the<br />

hexagram is a synthesis of the alchemical<br />

symbols for the 4 elements, and the letters of<br />

f'lm (1: Fire; 2: Air; '1: Earth, 3: water) represent<br />

these same four elements as phases in the<br />

manifestation of Light. One of the 4 occult<br />

maxims. The magical will is the radiant power of<br />

the Sun (Resh). It is something perceptible<br />

throughout nature (Tzaddi). He who learns by<br />

practice the art of true meditation becomes a<br />

powerful center of that Natural Intelligence. He<br />

who knows the one will goes through Life<br />

guided by the inner voice (Vav). The magical<br />

will is a power of development and dissolving<br />

power as well. It takes form in mental imagery<br />

(Nun). see 474, 13 1,70,701, 107,20.<br />

Translated grace in Lesser Holy Assembly (p.<br />

102, 108, 1 10, 1 1 1 ) "If this f 'lSl grace, be<br />

revealed, all those judgements are enlightened<br />

and are diverted from their concealed rigor."<br />

"And when this head, which is concealed in the<br />

head of the ancient one, which is not known,<br />

extendeth a certain frontal formation, which is<br />

formed for brilliance, then flasheth forth the<br />

lighting of his brain." "And is produceth and<br />

designeth (a certain effect) in this light<br />

(otherwise in this opening), in this forehead,<br />

whereon is inscribed a certain light, which is<br />

called f'lm, grace." "And this grace is extended<br />

backward into the head, even unto that place<br />

where it can remain in the beard, and it is called<br />

the supernal, 7Oll Chesed, Mercy."<br />

Ruwtzone, meaning grace and good will is<br />

numerically the same as rnaqor (see below),<br />

meaning, something dug, a spring, a well and<br />

tzanir, meaning, a water-pipe, a canal or channel.<br />

Thus we see that will has to do with the<br />

transmission of occult Water from a primary<br />

source through a channel. In this connection one<br />

would be lead to the conclusion that Geburah,<br />

the seat of Will is a watery sephiroth.<br />

Note that the letters of rawtzone are composed of<br />

the 4 elements. Resh, Key 19, the Sun and the<br />

element Fire. Tzaddi, Key 17, The Star and the<br />

sign Aquarius, a fixed air sign; Vav, Key 5, the<br />

Hierophant and the sign Taurus, a fixed earth<br />

sign, and Nun, Key 13, the sign Scorpion, a fixed<br />

water sign. Note that three of these letters are<br />

related to fixed signs, and the Sun, Resh, rules<br />

the fixed fire sign of Leo. This is represented by<br />

the animals shown in the corners of Tarot Keys<br />

IOand 21.<br />

This intimates that Will is a synthesis of the<br />

elemental powers which are also represented by<br />

the word m, because each of the letters also
