The Blazing Star
The Daughter of the Firmament.
The Dweller between the Waters
Heaven of the soul, outpourings of thought, moral influence of idea on form, immortality.
Hieroglyph, the BLAZING STAR and eternal youth. We have described this symbol previously.
upon the seventeenth page of the Tarot we find an admirable allegory of a naked woman, typifying Truth, Nature and Wisdom at one and the same time, who turns two ewers towards earth, and pours out fire and water upon it. Above her head glitters the septenary, starred about an eight-pointed star, that of Venus, symbol of peace and love; the plants of earth are flourishing around the woman, and on one of them the butterfly of Psyche has alighted. This emblem of the soul is replaced in some copies of the sacred book by a bird, which is a more Egyptian and probably a more ancient symbol. In the modern Tarot the plate is entitled the Glittering Star; it is analogous to a number of Hermetic symbols, and is also in correspondence with the Blazing Star of Masonic initiates, which expresses most of the mysteries of Rosicrucian secret doctrine.
