WELCOME TO STOIC QABALAH
Introducing your Astro Qabalah 92 Card Deck
Thank you for purchasing the Astro Qabalah 92 Card Deck. This page will help you to explore the contents of your new pack by offering information to guide you in using and working with the cards. Each pack contains a set of 40 Qabalah Cards and 52 Astrological cards.
This particular way of looking at the tree of life, a simplification of the teachings, gradually evolved over the last five years into a comprehensive system. In applying astrological knowledge to the pathworkings of the tree, the alignment demonstrates how the discipline underpins the roots of western mysticism.

The 40 Qabalah Cards - Tree of Life
Qabalah uses the Tree of Life as its template. Through the Pathworkings and spheres on the Tree of Life there is a map of the cosmos and of ourselves. Each pathworking aligns with a sign, element or planet and the spheres contain the essence of the planetary force. The stoics referred to astrology within their ancient texts and also it is clear that the philosophical teachings align with the Tree of Life. In the Deck you will find 40 cards to navigate the Tree of Life. The cards will aid as a focus in Pathworkings, a learning tool and as a way to connect with the essence of the Spheres. All Pathworkings contain a stoic philosophical key that unlocks the psychology of each area. Please download a copy of the Tree below to help you visualise where the cards archetypally sit on the Tree.

Using the Qabalah cards in a Reading
Using the tree of life layout. Shuffle the cards and cut the deck three times. Lay out the cards in the order of the Lightening Flash (Kether to Malkuth). This will give you a general overview to indicate where they may be any blockages, or where the energy is flowing, it can indicate an area that may require further focus or study, or show an area where potential is coming to the fore.
You may use just the Qabalah cards for this exercise or the whole Deck. When using the whole deck the Qabalah cards are the equivalent in strength to that of the major arcana in the tarot deck - representing the Soul level on the tree - life lessons, karmic influences and the structure of human consciousness. The Astrology cards in a reading will be the equivalent of the minor arcana in a tarot deck, representing the Personality level on the tree - this will offer insight into how your present condition or situation is affecting you and what steps to take to manifest your goals.

Lay out the read starting from House position 1 (Self) and continue round to house position 12. The final card is placed in the center of the wheel as a 'key card' to the reading. You can use just the Astrological cards for this reading or the whole 92 card deck. This read (like all readings) is a reflection of the subconscious mind and can give insights into each area and give keys on how to work with each area.
