Tarot - symbolic meaning of the fourteenth card
The evil within us is impossible to eradicate. The only way to rid ourselves of evil is to offer it as food for the spirits of good. The fourteenth card of the Tarot represents an angel pouring a liquid from an urn of silver (the metal associated with the moon) into an urn of gold (the metal associated with the sun). To Initiates, this image conveys the idea of the lower self, symbolized by the moon, transfused into the higher Self, symbolized by the sun. This transfusion can be achieved only if the lower self is diluted, diminished, so that the higher Self may benefit. This, then, is the work of an intelligent disciple: domination of the chaotic forces of the lower nature, so that they may serve the higher Self. There is no other way to conquer evil.
