"The Tarot is a book, disguised as a pack of cards." (The Tarot, Paul Foster Case). In Open Forum, we discuss the story that these cards tell.

In July, the Dallas Chapter of the Builders of the Adytum began a new foundational course with a study of the Hebrew alphabet and its relation to the Tarot! This is essential knowledge for every aspiring Qabalist.

In the BOTA Tarot, the major Tarot Keys have a letter of the alphabet in the lower right-hand corner. There is a fundamental relationship between a Key and its letter.

We began with Yod and Key 9, The Hermit. August 9th, we discuss Aleph and possibly Bet(h). If you missed the discussion on Yod, don't worry. We can give you the discussion materials on Yod. Why is Aleph associated with Key 0, The Fool? Aleph means "ox." What does an ox have to do with The Fool? Come find out!

A good reference book is the Hebrew Letter Workbook, which we will be using. You may order it at:

Another good reference is The Tarot, by Paul Foster Case.

This meeting is open to the public and we welcome everyone interested in metaphysics to join us and learn more about the Holy Qabalah and Sacred Tarot.

The Qabalistic Vibratory Attunement is an Aquarian Age form of group meditation. We use techniques of the science of sound and color to send healing energies into the world.

Open Forum meetings are held on the 2nd Saturday of each month. Builders of the Adytum is a teaching and training order in the Western Mystery tradition founded by Paul Foster Case in 1922. BOTA presents the principles of the Ageless Wisdom through the teachings of the Holy Qabalah (Kabbalah, Cabbala), Tarot, Alchemy, and much more.

The Edwin Kiest Masonic Lodge is at 10210 Hermosa Dr., Dallas, TX 75218, (close to the intersection of Garland Road and Loop 12/Buckner). The Lodge is across the street from the White Rock Swimming Pool.
