GnosticTarotCards
GD versions of the Tree of Life are BLATENTLY inaccurate! I don't care either way. If you just want to Free Associate by all means the Tarot can be a great Oracle. However If you want to use Tarot and Kabbalah, then your going to need a reason to practice Kabbalah and ask yourself hard questions. I don't advocate reading GD material because its the most popular. You can drink Pepsi or Coca Cola because you see it every minute on TV, but that doesn't mean its good to do or beneficial.
The GD system has some really good things in it. If you use the right tree you will either get into Faustian Pact magic or Agrippian work which is where Mathers etc. received their "lectures and knowledge" . Its important to ask WHY not just accept things blindly.
All through GD literature they talk about Blinds this, and Blinds that. The reason why is because (I think) The fundemental flaw in the system , its derived from French Masonic tradition that was denied to them and then synthesized into a new system called Golden Dawn. The problem is that the French mage Eliphas Levi DENIED the "adepts" of the GOlden dawn entry... why if they were so advanced. Its because of this that I think they use the word blind, sort of a Freudian Slip BLIND BLIND BLIND! How can the Blind lead the Blind??
