Psychosophy and Tarot

One interesting connection that occurred to me recently regarding Psyche Yoga/Psychosophy/Attitudinal Psyche is that it connects very neatly with the four traditional elements and with the four suits of the Tarot.

Will = Fire = Wands

Volition: The attitude towards personal energy, willpower, power, identity, confidence, desired goals, overcoming obstacles, self-control, responsibility and obligations.




Emotion=Water=Cups

Emotion: The attitude towards emotional reactions, feelings, experiences, intuition, relationships, culture, artistic expression, music, entertainment, and deep desires.




Logic=Air=Swords

Logic: The attitude towards all logical thinking, analyses, knowledge, erudition, opinions, proofs, arguments, the search for truth, scientific research of the meaning of life.




Physics=Earth=Disks

Physics: The attitude towards all material things: looks, food, belongings, money, aesthetic, comfort, physical care and practical skills.




Not that I am expert on either of these disciplines, but I wonder if that could shed any light on the potential nature and use of this theory, relative to other typologies.

Psychosophy Clubs and Sextas

Four types, combined by common strong and weak functions form a club . Representatives of one club, as a rule, have common interests, a similar life position and often occupation. In communication, we can subconsciously feel the representative of our club, we are drawn to it. In this case, you should pay particular attention to the fact that the club is not a quadra, and if the values ​​of the club partner’s quadra do not match yours (pseudophilia or half-pseudophilia relations), then with prolonged communication or friendships / love relationships there may be serious misunderstanding, for example, in the case of ELFV and LEVF. In any case, the club always has a place for joint activities, especially self-expression of strong functions and their useful and adequate criticism of these actions. EF Club Strong Emotion and Physics, Weak Will and Logic Representatives: Pushkin (EFVL), Bukharin (EFLV), Borgia (FELV), Dumas (FEVL) Motto: "Masters of seduction" The mos...
