7 of Disks
Meaning
Saturn in Taurus — Failure The number Seven, Netzach, has its customary enfeebling effect, and this is made worse by the influence of Saturn in Taurus. The disks are arranged in the shape of the geomantic figure Rubeus, the ugliest and most menacing of the Sixteen. The atmosphere of the card is that of Blight. On the background, which represents vegetation and cultivation, everything is spoiled. The four colours of Netzach appear, but they are blotched with angry indigo and reddish orange. The disks themselves are the leaden disks of Saturn. They suggest bad money.
Elemental Dignity
You stand at the threshold of steadfast perseverance and fruitful patience. The force of Saturn in Taurus, harmonized by the nurturing flow of water, grants you the power to transform adversity into lasting stability. This is the mastery of slow cultivation, where apparent failure becomes the fertile soil for eventual, enduring success.
The force of this card, when beset by the swift and disruptive air element, becomes fragmented and chaotic. You face the danger of paralysis through over-analysis, where the rigidity of Saturn in Taurus hardens into stubbornness and the potential for growth is choked by fear and doubt. Here, failure festers into stagnation, and the blight of doubt consumes the fruits of your labor.
