Binah, as the top of the passive pillar of Form, symbolises the ultimate feminine archetype,<br />

that of the Great Mother. <strong>The</strong> feminine can be broken down into a two-fold division, and a three-fold<br />

one :<br />

TWO-FOLD SYSTEM<br />

AMA : <strong>The</strong> dark, sterile, Mother. Light Isis<br />

AIMA : <strong>The</strong> Bright, fertile, Mother. Dark Isis<br />

THREE-FOLD SYSTEM<br />

Sattva : Goodness ; Maiden (First Quarter) - Mary, Isis, Nephthys<br />

Rajas : Passion ; Mother (Full Moon) - Venus, Aphrodite, Nike<br />

Tamas : Darkness ; Crone (Third Quarter) - Kalli, Lilith<br />

Other forms of the feminine associated with Binah range from the Shekinah, the "indwelling<br />

presence of God" (also associated with Malkuth as the unwedded soul), to Babalon, the Great Whore<br />

or Scarlet Woman, deified by Crowley in his elaborate symbology as the Lady Babalon, nursing the<br />

Babe of the Abyss in the City of Pyramids under the Night of Pan.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Catholic "Litany of the Blessed Virgin" lists titles which could be transposed onto the<br />

Tree of Life with appropriate relevance, such as :<br />

Mary<br />

i.e., exalted, also "bitterness of the sea", "Myrrh of the Sea", or<br />

"Lady/Mistress of the Sea"<br />

Mother of Christ<br />

Mother of divine grace<br />

Mother inviolate etc<br />

Mirror of Justice<br />

Seat of Wisdom<br />
