NETZACH: The four 7s - The Occulted Consciousness


Mantra:  In the magickal god-form of Hathor, vibrate: "Ket`kru", while standing erect and facing a waxing Venus in the East, with the utterance of: HehYodVavHe Tse`ve`ot, Ha`ne`el, E`lo`hem, Net`sak.

Mysteries of Netzach:
As the seventh sphere on the tree of life, located below the abyss, Netzach represents Failure, Valour, Futility, and Debauchery.  Crowley wrote that Netzach had descended too far down into illusion and was out of balance on the tree.  I wanted not to believe this.  I wanted to align my opinion with pop culture's and the commonly heard "seven is my favorite number" statement.  I've never questioned why casinos use "777" as the famous jackpot number.  Seven is always painted as the best and most lucky numbers of all, but is that an illusion?   Doing the art, and writing the chapters for this book, have caused me to "live the chapters".  I've learned a lot about seven.  It's like my whole life has been in a twilight zone retrograde for this one chapter.  Seven should be called the great teacher.  It will teach you appreciation, dedication, and will power, through severity.    You will learn to appreciate everything like never before. Every bite of food, every opportunity, every family member, every friend, and you will be blessed with the vision to see whom your real friends are.   During this time you will be blinded in ignorance, and oversaturated in understanding & empathy.  Your lack of means will rear its ugly head every chance it gets, and good luck will be thrown by the wayside as the norm.   "777" and the opportunities of it's jackpot, becomes very shiny, and the illusion of it ultimately becomes clear; it is not for you, none of it is, and it never was.  So whether in valour, or debauchery, just accept the futility of your failure, and with this, also consider the illusion of seven vs. the reality of it.   Below in the correspondences section you will find a direct invoking method for the high magick of Netzach.


           The 7 of Disks  "FAILURE" represents the Earthy aspect of the fourfold Netzach.  In a card reading the 7 of Disks will represent an aspect of "FAILURE" in relation to the dominant trump in the throw.  This aspect of " FAILURE" is minor in nature and will affect the situation in regards to a trump, though if a court card is dominant in your throw; than this "FAILURE" could be transmitted to whoever the court card represents, even you.   This card represents The Saturn in Taurus.  We see seven silver discs growing on a night time dried out cultivated-palm of some sort. The name of this card speaks for itself, but don't give it too much power.  Remember that you are to apply this failure-flavor to a single Trump or Court card in a throw, nothing really more.  No, you're not a "FAILURE" if you get this card in a pull, though it does represent not really doing too well in a trump represented situation.    


 The 7 of Wands "VALOUR" represents the Fiery aspect of the fourfold Netzach.  In a card reading the 7 of Wands will represent an aspect of "VALOUR" in relation to the dominant trump in the throw.  This aspect of "VALOUR" is minor in nature and will affect the situation in regards to a trump, though if a court card is dominant in your throw; than this "VALOUR" could be transmitted to whoever the court card represents, even you.  This minor card represents Mars in Leo, and displays an out of balance manifestation of will. We see the same two Lotus wands, two Phoenix wands, and two wands of the Chief Adept, though now they are thrown out of balance by the 7th wand, a brutal club.     These wands are lit by fire, with the only one cool enough to touch, being the club.   Summon your Mars, grab the club, and go kick butt. that's the energy here.  It usually represents the querent's or court representative's good action in an intense situation, usually described by the trump.


 The 7 of Swords "FUTILITY" represents the Airy aspect of the fourfold Netzach.  In a card reading the 7 of Swords will represent an aspect of "FUTILITY" in relation to the dominant trump in the throw.  This aspect of "FUTILITY" is minor in nature and will affect the situation in regards to a trump, though if a court card is dominant in your throw, then this "FUTILITY" could be transmitted to whoever the court card represents, even you.  This card represents the Moon in Aquarius.   Six swords in the background each with individual cosmic handles. In the foreground we see the individual seventh sword dominating, it signifies how futile it is when attempting to grab any other sword.  This card signifies an operation, or idea that will never work.  In most cases, efforts have already been made, to dismal result.  We hesitate to write to much about this card, as the word "FUTILITY" already carries a lot of power for a minor.  We must always remember it is a minor, and while defining a situation through a nearby trump, its appearance does not define a reading. Many readers (myself), do not use reversed attribution, as we feel they are not necessary, and that the entire universe was represented accurately in the trumps and the minors, both on their own and together, any of the 7s, are proof, as they will certainly flip the meaning of your trump.



The 7 of Cups "DEBAUCH" represents the Watery aspect of the fourfold Netzach.  In a card reading the 7 of Cups will represent an aspect of "DEBAUCH" in relation to the dominant trump in the throw.  This aspect of "DEBAUCH" is minor in nature and will affect the situation in regards to a trump, though if a court card is dominant in your throw, than this "DEBAUCH" could be transmitted to whoever the court card represents, even you.   This card represents Venus in Scorpio.    We see six iridescent cups in the background, with an out of balance extra large lower seventh cup, all being fed green slime from wilted lotus blossoms.  Under a dark overcast sky, the cups are all filled over and floating in a sea of bubbling green slime.  In a reading this card will almost always indicate over-partying of some kind.  Whether it be sex, drugs, or rock n roll; your doing too much.  The surrounding cards will be the giveaway.  I usually sigh when I see this card show up.
