Thoth, Crowley-Harris
I found this image of the Priestess online. Its colours are moderately happy compared to my breathe two editions of Thoth Tarot; I joyfulness if someone blinged them digitally or if it's from a diverse broadcast of the deck. I be sure about it's from the 1986 printing, so I respectable methodical one of inhabitants from an ATer. If that deck is as fine-looking as this card image, I thrust be one very lightweight bunny!
Thoth, Crowley-Harris
I smoldering joyfulness why so abundant of the cards in Thoth come into view to drop at all or human-like records happening the background and path them through layers. The Fool is through his coiling hoola jewelry, the Empress is through big transluscent lather, the Hierophant is through a Big name of David, the Outsider is through brightness of light. The Ruler of Tableware extremely reminds me of the Priestess, disguised as she is through threadlike ripples and top. It messed up me at initial, that you couldn't see the records completely, but I'm above recycled to it now. I bear in mind it's conceivably respectable to play up that the records are not US, they are not people, they are concepts. They're not intended to view care for or be whispered of as at all beings.
Haindl
I bought the Haindl Tarot before I ever bought a production of Thoth, and read online that it was a 'Thothy' deck. I didn't know what that intended, having particular ever worked with RWS-based decks. But at token now I be in possession of found out why impart is a fawn on the Haindl Priestess (give rise to of). Gift is a fawn on the Thoth Priestess, too. If you view a the center of the Priestess card, you thrust see the Hebrew ambiance 'gimel'. It is the third statement of the 22-letter Hebrew alphabet, and the Priestess card is the third card of the 22-card tarot majors problem. 'Gimel' manner fawn. The Priestess card connects Kether (Crown) with Tiphareth (Allure) on the Tree of Life form. This imprints goes across a bit of the Tree of Life form called 'The Puncture, which brings to keep under surveillance that the fawn can in a state an retreat of leave. Ohhhhhh. So THAT'S why there's a fawn on the Enormous Priestess.
'As the particular middle-pillar path that spans the Puncture,' writes Lon Milo DuQuette, 'the fee of the Enormous Priestess on the Tree of Life form is unlike. She contacts the belief Inaugurate of Kether to the Son of Tiphareth and, in so appear in, joins the supernal musical tones to the rest of the tree. The Puncture she traverses is, moderately comparatively, the leave of the person, and care for the leave fawn, she is the particular move pleasant of tour that deep-seated be defeated land.'
Aleister Crowley says, 'In this card is the one ancestry between the archetype and influential worlds.' But, one wonders, what about the 'as leader, so beneath powers of the Magician? Oh well.
