Notes
Book of Power
In this BOS, this archetype signifies "completion," graduation, completion of the work of inserting yourself into hierarchies of power and privilege.
"(The World; complete Initiation.) The Temple is constructed, it is complete and nothing is missing. The building is perfect in its design and in its execution. The ideal is attained, the Great Work accomplished, the Divine rule of Love and intelligence is established in the regenerated World."[1] Brainwashing complete. Initiate fully formed and compliant. Successful graduation to the next level. Note the idea of regeneration after a fall applied to the world.
Papus uses the card to add authority to the tarot itself. [2]
Book of Slavery
Also "completion, integration, accomplishment."
The culmination of the Fool's journey. "The World card represents the final state of cosmic consciousness, the supreme balance between good and evil, a complete reconciliation of the universe’s dichotomy and duality..."[3]
In the BOS, the work is never complete. You've had some success, you've been rewarded, but keep grinding it out at the wheel. "The wreath is circular, symbolising a continual cycle of successful completion and new beginnings because, as the woman steps through the wreath, she is completing one phase but beginning another one almost straight away."[4]
Fool in School. "And so we return to the Fool. Innocence and emptiness, united with wisdom. "[5]
Fool in School. "The four figures represent the four fixed signs of the Zodiac—Leo, Taurus, Aquarius, and Scorpio. They are symbolic of the four elements, the four suits of the Tarot, four compass points, four seasons, and the four corners of the Universe. They are here to guide you from one phase to the next, bringing balance and harmony to your journey."[6]
Judge and Punish/reward "It represents Completion, Reward."
