The Tarot of EliThe Qabalistic Thoth Three of Disks-Works represents endurance, strong physical determination, and tenacity. The 3, is the ability to give the "works" to what you want.

This is the card of nobility; that of trade, skilled labor, renown and glory.



  1. The pyramid symbolizes focused power as commitment and priority.
  2. The blue light surrounding the pyramid states the capacity of clarity; clarity about what you will or will not give your energy, mind and body to. In other words,"the Works".
  3. The gray waves in the back ground represent confusion; However, this confusion has been broken through by the lighted pyramid of clear intention, clarity of priorities and commitments.
  4. The three red wheels represent the alignment of mind, heart and action.

The astrological sign of Mars in Capricorn adorns this card, as Mars is the planet of activity,energy, vitality and assertion. Capricorn represents, the assertion of Mind, Heart and Action with focused intention moving in the same direction of tangible and secure manifestation.

The Thoth 3 of Disks, is also called the Three of Pentacles in the Golden Dawn and Ryder -Waite decks.
The Qabalistic Thoth 3 of Disks is named Works, and therefore the Lord of Material Works. Attributed to this card, is Mars in Capricorn, thus placing Martial force to industry.

For those interested in in-tonal vibration the Angels of the Decan are Yechevah and Lehachiah. (Angels and Daemons all exist in our Souls as Past personalities, once, there was only angelic evolution!)

The Qabalistic Thoth Three of Disks-Works, is the influence of Binah in the Material world  that Qabalists call Assiah.

Capricorn is an Earth sign and the effect of Mars on Capricorn is to bring great discipline and control in material things, such as, employment, business, and building construction.

Crowley illustrated this card on the basis of 3, Binah's number, showing 3 wheels at 3 points in the pyramid. This grouping of Three, is shown in Alchemy as Mercury, Sulfur, and Salt; or in Qabalah as the maternal letters Shin (Fire)  Mem  (Water) and  Aleph (Air) and in geometry as a Plane.

If you are interested in Hindu system of Guna, the three are Sattva, Rajas and Tamas.
[Guna:
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article is about the Indian philosophical concept "Guna". For other uses, see Guna (disambiguation). Guṇa (Sanskrit: गुण) depending on the context means 'string, thread or strand', or 'virtue, merit, excellence', or 'quality, peculiarity, attribute, property'. The concept originated in Samkhya philosophy, but now a key concept in various schools of Hindu philosophy.

There are three guṇas, according to this worldview, that have always been and continue to be present in all things and beings in the world. These three gunas are called: sattva (goodness, constructive, harmonious), rajas (passion, active, confused), and tamas (darkness, destructive, chaotic). All of these three gunas are present in everyone and everything, it is the proportion that is different, according to Hindu worldview. The interplay of these gunas defines the character of someone or something, of nature and determines the progress of life.In some contexts, it may mean 'a subdivision, species, kind, quality', or an operational principle or tendency of something or someone. In human behavior studies, Guna means personality, innate nature and psychological attributes of an individual.There is no single word English language translation for the concept guna. The usual, but approximate translation is "quality".]

The Pyramid seems to be arising out of a Great Sea, that represents Binah the Third Sephira on the Tree of Life. This card also represents the Material establishment of the Universe as determined by its basic form of 3, the Plane. The influence of Mars is shown as the Red-tint.

THE SHADOW TAROT- 3 of Worm Holes & Radioactive Neutron Stars/ Orobas

  1. In demonology, Orobas is a powerful Great Prince of Hell, having twenty legions of demons under his control. He supposedly gives true answers of things past, present and to come, divinity, and the creation of the world; he also confers dignities and prelacies, and the favor of friends and foes.




This silly looking guy/horse seems to be an offspring of the Greek mythological Centaur.
According to most scholars, the reaction of a non-riding culture to the appearance of a man on horse back, such as early Greek, Mayan etc., produced the artistic rendition of Centaurs; a very much fantasy creation, that has excited the imagination of many writer's throughout history. The fact that such anatomy could never live, was beyond the superstitious, who substituted knowledge to the animal "fear of the unknown".  Yet instead of being a personalized pestilence, or disease, Orobas, is a "good guy" who being yet another "great and mighty Prince of Hell" (the 55th one) who was classified by the linear nature of his "binding" by Solomon (Sun of On), seems to cause love amongst enemies, but knows Divine Creative intimately and can divulge any and all information about it.

The inventiveness of the human imagination is astounding and continues to cause awe, but a little knowledge, helps to iron out the fantasies. That is one of the purposes of The Soul of the Solar Logos, and its union with the fear bound survival animal mind. For not only do I, the Spirit learn discrimination, where thought that "lives" is found by sensational connection to a "Grand and Mighty Prince of Earth", the Human body, but also I find out how my Alien Psyche can expand and liberate the Animal Mind of Earth, from self imposed limits: limits imposed by fear and superstition.  In reality, the Divinity "within" you, will give you all the knowledge it has, just by "turning inward" and releasing your fear, to the pure faithful reality of, "You built me to be me...so let's Rock!" The Divine Creative is in love with "Rock and Roll" souls!

When the Three of Disks or The Shadow Tarot/Orobas is thrown during a reading:  


  • The querent maybe giving full commitment to a situation and is unconcerned about difficulties.
  • is aware of responsibilities
  • Planning secure structures in areas of finance, physical security and needs.
  • Right effort towards a wise end in trade,, skilled labor, Etc.
  • A basic form or structure may be finished , needing only finishing touches.
  • Approval from others who appreciate the hard work the success that the querent has achieved.
  • In a more spiritual reading, where the cards surrounding show a majority of Major Arcana, the querent is engaged in the Great Work of  "As above and so below", by expressing the Higher Self.
  • Material gain as a result of creative skills within a 3 wk or 3 month time frame..
  • Love of one's creations, and nurturing others who assist in the work.

When thrown this card declares:

  • That in the next 3 weeks or 3 months is the best time to get clear on your priorities, commitments and to determine what you are willing to give "the works" to.
  • It is also the best time to reassess or clarify your relationships with Capricorn people (December 21- January 21).
  • This is a time where clarity seems to come out of no-where allowing you to see clearly priorities and commitments that you wish to tenaciously stick to making them solid and stable in your life.
  • To the Universal Self, "The Works" is Life Itself so when we align our body and soul (heart) and action towards priorities, commitments and/or what we wish to give "the works" to----we align with Universal Priorities  which can enhance all that we are determined to do.

All we have to do is focus, begin with what we have, and the Universal Priority will accelerate us towards our goal.  However, by all means have fun!
