With this month’s meeting, we reach the 7th and final stage of spiritual unfoldment depicted on the bottom row of the B.O.T.A. Tarot Tableau. Key 21, The World, represents Cosmic Consciousness, the Administrative Intelligence, and the pair of opposites Dominion and Slavery. The World has the Hebrew letter Tav (signature or mark) assigned to it as well as the planetary attribution of Saturn, which are sure to spark a lively discussion when we consider their significance in relation to the various aspects of the key.
We will begin by reading Jason Lotterhand’s lecture on Key 21 from his book The Thursday Night Tarot. We will then enjoy a thoughtful group discussion of our impressions and thoughts regarding the key, and we will conclude with a meditation from The Book of Tokens.

Optional Supplemental Material:

• Attendees may wish to listen to Ann Davies’ lecture on Key 21 posted on youtube by B.O.T.A. New Zealand.
