The number 22 and divination tools

[Xander67]

I was reading a book by Terry Donaldson called Tarot Spellcaster,
and the first chapter was soo enlightning that I thought I would share a bit here..

in astrology, there are 12 signs and 10 planets for a total of 22 astrological symbols...

IN the tarot, there are 22 major arcana cards

and in the hebrew alphabet there are 22 letters and each letter coresponds to a path on the Qabballa,

22 paths, 22 astrological stmbols, 22 cards,

There are a few Decks where each of the Coresponding element, and aspect are beautifully displayed on the apropriate card,

Tarot magick takes Magic to a greater level in that the use of one or several cards can be an effective way to communicate the intent to the higher self, which understands the archetypes of the symbols...

I should prolly have posted this in books but scince this had to do with so many different methods of Divination I thought it would get more reads here. :)

All very interesting! 22 is also considered a master number in numerology. ;)
