“Harness emotion and will – the Chariot signifies self-discipline and victory through focus.”

🜂 The Chariot as the Vehicle of the Holy Will

In the Golden Dawn and Hermetic schema, Key VII—The Chariot corresponds to the Path of Cheth (ח) that bridges Binah (Understanding) and Geburah (Severity). This path crosses the Abyss as the Mercy of the Mother reflected in disciplined Will. It is not merely motion through space, but motion of consciousness—the act of maintaining divine equilibrium while moving between opposing forces.

The letter Cheth, meaning “Fence” or “Enclosure,” perfectly expresses this mystery: the Chariot is the Mercurial womb protecting the Solar Child as it advances through the planes. Thus, the Charioteer is not the egoic driver of events but the Divine Mind in motion, steering the incarnate will under guidance from the Supernal Mother.

🌞 Tiphareth in Motion — The Solar Son Ascending

Waite’s Charioteer wears a canopy embroidered with stars, signifying the celestial influence that overshadows the Adept. The cubical Chariot reflects the four elements harmonized into form; the crowned Charioteer represents the Self in mastery of those elements, having been tested by duality (the Sphinxes). His “crown of three radiant pentagrams” suggests mastery of the Spirit of the Elements—the quintessence stabilized within the personality vehicle.

In Qabalistic psychology, this is the Solar Self (Tiphareth) taking command of the lower vehicles—the Ruach, Nephesh, and Guph—by aligning with the Higher Will emanating from Binah. Hence the Charioteer “rides” between the Sphinxes of black and white, the dual forces of Mercy and Severity, to reach the heart of equilibrium.

🌗 Urim and Thummim — The Divine Polarities of Discernment

The exploration of the Urim and Thummim perfectly aligns with the Chariot’s symbolic structure. In esoteric interpretation:

• Urim (Light) radiates from Chesed—Mercy, expansion, love.

• Thummim (Perfection) condenses from Geburah—Severity, justice, contraction.

Placed upon the shoulders, they remind the Adept that all true guidance must pass through the twin portals of mercy and judgment before being acted upon. The shoulders—those limbs of bearing—carry karmic responsibility for every act of Will.

Levi’s crescents reinforce the lunar intermediary nature of these forces: the Higher Will shines through the reflected intuitive consciousness (the Moon), not through the intellect’s glare. Thus, the Charioteer acts not from reaction but revelation.

⚖️ Alchemical Formula — Solve et Coagula in Motion

The Chariot is a Mercurial vessel of the Sun, expressing the alchemical marriage of the fixed and the volatile:

• Sphinxes: the fixed opposites (Salt).

• Charioteer: the mediating intellect/spirit (Mercury).

• Canopy of stars: the volatile celestial influence (Sulphur).

When the Will (Sulphur) is guided by Understanding (Binah) through disciplined form (Geburah), the Adept becomes a moving philosopher’s stone—transmuting every experience into Gold. This is the essence of spiritual motion: not wandering, but conscious travel through the landscape of manifestation.

🜍 The Inner Pathworking — Mastery of the Opposing Currents

In meditation or pathworking, envision yourself within the cubic chariot, the sphinxes before you straining in opposite directions.
You raise your scepter—not to force, but to balance.
Feel the Urim glow on your right shoulder—radiant mercy.
Feel the Thummim cool on your left—measured judgment.
Your crown of pentagrams ignites: Spirit rules the elements.
The chariot moves forward only when both opposites are held in harmony.

This is the Great Lesson of Cheth: the soul must contain duality without division. As the Book of Thoth declares of its own Charioteer, “He moves by virtue of his Self; all motion is directed from within.”

🌈 Synthesis — The Adept as Vehicle of Revelation

When the Chariot appears in reading or ritual, it announces not mere success or travel, but the stage where the aspirant has achieved motion within control. It signifies the realization that the Divine moves through the individual—not the other way around.

Thus, the Urim and Thummim on the shoulders remind the initiate:

“Be the Light that judges, and the Judgment that illumines.”

Only when these twin faculties are reconciled within Tiphareth can the Adept move forward along the Great Way, carrying the Radiant Word of the Higher Self across the battlefield of polarity.

🔥 Geburah — The Pentagram of Dynamic Will

In the Western Qabalah, Geburah (Severity) is the fifth Sephirah on the Tree of Life, corresponding to Mars and the fiery red current of active strength. The number 5 signifies not merely conflict, but the assertion of divine motion through resistance—the necessary tension by which the soul defines itself.

The pentagram, emblematic of Geburah, reveals this perfectly: four points of the elements crowned by the fifth point of Spirit. The Chariot embodies this diagram in motion. The Adept who rides it has mastered the four elemental bodies—fire, water, air, and earth—so that Spirit directs them as the ruling point. Without Spirit’s guidance, the pentagram inverts, and the chariot of the soul is pulled apart by the elemental beasts of desire.

Thus, Geburah is not destruction for its own sake; it is the measured force that cuts away inertia, propelling the Chariot toward equilibrium. Its fiery red current is the engine of Divine Severity, burning away all that is unaligned with the True Will.

🜏 The Lingam–Yoni Glyph: Creative Force Harnessed

On the RWS Chariot, the red emblem upon the front plate unites the Lingam and Yoni—the masculine and feminine polarities of creative energy. This symbol echoes both the Indian lingam of Shivaic power and the Egyptian winged solar sphere, indicating the union of generative forces within the Adept.

In Hermetic synthesis, this red glyph reveals Geburah’s essential mystery: all motion originates from polarized unity. The Charioteer is therefore not a warrior of division, but of integration—one who conquers by reconciling the fiery and watery currents within the Self, forging them into the single flame of the Solar Will.

⚫⚪ The Twin Sphinxes — The Shadow and the Solar Mind

The black and white sphinxes embody the psychological polarity that must be mastered before the soul can advance.

• The Dark Sphinx represents the Nephesh, the animal soul or subconscious reservoir of instinct, desire, and ancestral memory—the “shadow side of the soul.” It is not evil, but unillumined.

• The Light Sphinx represents the Ruach, the conscious rational and moral faculty that seeks order and meaning in experience.

Both are divine in essence, yet neither can direct the Chariot alone. If the Ruach suppresses the Nephesh, the vehicle becomes rigid and prideful; if the Nephesh overpowers the Ruach, the Chariot plunges into chaos. Only when the Charioteer, standing as Tipharethic Self, holds the reins in equilibrium does the combined motion become purposeful ascent.

These sphinxes are “joined at the haunches,” as Levi observed—an image of paradoxical unity: two creatures pulling opposite ways yet bound by one soul. The Adept must command them not through domination, but through harmonic resonance—the voice of the Higher Self that both obey.

🌞 Integration — The Red Force and the Solar Crown

The red of Geburah animates the Chariot, yet its motion is governed by Tiphareth’s golden light. Severity must serve Beauty. The pentagram of Geburah crowns the hexagram of Tiphareth: the disciplined force guided by radiant consciousness.

Hence, the true Adept rides a Solar Chariot of Mars—Spirit commanding strength. The Urim and Thummim on the shoulders temper this power with Mercy and Judgment, ensuring that Will never becomes cruelty, nor motion mere reaction.

✶ Hermetic Reflection

When meditating on this card, visualize the red pentagram burning upon the chest of the Charioteer. Feel the twin sphinxes’ tension resolve into forward motion as you balance your conscious and unconscious powers. The glyph of Lingam–Yoni glows with unified creative fire beneath you. In this vision, you become the embodied pentagram—Spirit ruling the four worlds, moving through the field of manifestation as a self-contained, divinely driven vehicle of Will.

👑 The Charioteer — Vehicle of the Crown

Among all the Major Arcana, The Charioteer alone traverses dimensions without external aid. His motion is not propelled by beasts, elements, or material force, but by Divine Will Itself—the Ruach Elohim that moves upon the face of the Waters.

The apparent paradox of a stationary chariot that nonetheless moves is the key: this is Merkabah mysticism, the “Chariot of the Heavens” through which the initiate ascends and descends the planes of existence. In the Book of Ezekiel, this was the celestial vehicle of the Divine, moved by the “wheels within wheels”—the rotations of consciousness itself. In the Western Hermetic context, this is the Adept’s Light Body—the perfected soul that can traverse the inner worlds of the Tree of Life at Will.

✶ The Crown of Kether — “Eheieh: I Will Be”

Upon the Charioteer’s brow shines the Crown, symbol of Kether, the first emanation of the Tree. Kether is not “I Am,” but “I Will Be” (Eheieh)—the dynamic potential of pure Being before manifestation.

Thus, the Charioteer moves not by thought or emotion, but by the intent of Divine Will itself, transmitted directly from the Crown. He is not the ego steering the chariot, but the embodiment of the Logos in motion—the Word that travels between the Supernal Triad and the manifest worlds.

To this Crown alone he is answerable; no lesser authority commands him. This expresses the Hermetic maxim: “The Initiate obeys the law of his own Being.” For he has become the lawgiver within his own microcosmic universe, a reflection of the Macrocosmic Father.

🌌 The Merkabah Within — Movement Between Worlds

Because his vehicle is consciousness itself, the Charioteer crosses the Four Worlds—Atziluth, Briah, Yetzirah, and Assiah—without obstruction. His armor represents the astral body, his canopy of stars the supernal influences guiding him, and his cubic chariot the stable foundation of elemental mastery.

He moves through states of consciousness—waking, dreaming, visionary, divine—not by leaving one and entering another, but by synthesizing them in motion. This is the secret of multidimensional travel in Hermetic practice: all planes are within the Self, and mastery of Will harmonizes their vibration.

Hence, the black and white sphinxes—representing the subconscious and conscious forces—do not pull the chariot forward. They are contained within the Adept’s command; their energy is sublimated into the still motion of pure awareness. The Adept’s motionless motion becomes the mark of attainment.

🔱 The Chariot as the Merkabah of the Adept

In Western Hermetic Qabalah, this is the moment when the aspirant no longer “rides” the Chariot—they are the Chariot. Their body, aura, and consciousness merge into the geometries of sacred movement. The Chariot is the Merkabah—the “Throne of God”—and the Charioteer is the enthroned consciousness of Tiphareth, directed by Kether, guarded by Geburah, and sanctified by Binah.

This is the Adept’s ability to traverse the Astral, Mental, and Causal planes while remaining rooted in the Divine Will. Hence Levi’s remark that “his attitude is proud and tranquil”—for he knows that motion and stillness are one in the Eye of God.

🜂 Hermetic Synthesis

“The Will that is still, moves all.” — Book of the Law, paraphrased

The Chariot teaches that true motion occurs not through external action but through alignment with the Crown. When the Adept’s personal will (Ruach) is silenced before the greater “I Will Be” (Eheieh), the entire cosmos becomes his vehicle. He moves between planes not as traveler, but as Presence.

Thus, the Charioteer stands as the archetype of Divine Motion without effort, the Magus crowned by Kether, whose chariot is the living light of consciousness itself.

👼 The Charioteer as the Holy Guardian Angel

In the Western Hermetic Qabalah, The Charioteer represents the radiant presence of the Holy Guardian Angel—the divine intelligence who guides the evolving soul (the Son/Sun) toward the full realization of its Solar Self in Tiphareth.

The HGA is not a being separate from us, but our own higher genius—the pure consciousness that knows both the depths of incarnation and the heights of divine origin. The Chariot therefore symbolizes not an external vehicle but the subtle body of the Soul through which the Angel descends and manifests in human awareness.

When this archetype arises in the psyche, the Adept begins to sense that every movement of Will, when purified, originates from a higher directive beyond intellect or emotion. The Charioteer is that directive—the inner captain of the ship of consciousness—who steers the incarnate self through the astral currents of life toward the Sun of divine identity.

🌞 The Soul/Son — The Solar Self Awakened

The Soul, or Son, in the Hermetic trinity of Father, Mother, and Child, is the Psyche emerging from the matrix of incarnation. This “Solar Self-consciousness” is born when the human awareness (Ruach) aligns with the Angel’s golden light.

This is the meaning of Tiphareth as Beauty and Sacrifice—for the soul must surrender the fragmented ego to receive the integrated vision of the Angel. The Charioteer does not carry the Soul; rather, the Charioteer is the Soul in its perfected state—the Self who knows its origin in the Divine Crown and its destiny as the Sun of consciousness illuminating the Worlds.

🔱 The Guardian and Guide of the Psyche

Because the Charioteer is the HGA, the aspirant is never alone upon the path. The guiding presence of the Angel moves silently behind every intuition, coincidence, and illumination. It whispers through dreams, synchronicities, and moments of moral clarity—guiding the incarnate being out of the labyrinth of sensual illusion into the greater truth of Unity.

In Qabalistic terms, the Angel is the bridge between Geburah and Chesed—the perfect balance of Severity and Mercy—manifesting as luminous guidance within the heart of the Adept. The Chariot, therefore, is the dynamic interplay of these Sephiroth within the soul, the very mechanism by which Divine Will directs human destiny.

☀️ The Golden Light — Disperser of the False Ego

When the light of the HGA dawns in consciousness, its radiance dissolves the false constructs of identity that veil the true Self. This radiant intelligence exposes what many mystics call the mind virus—the pseudo-self built of fear, shame, and control. In esoteric language, this is the “devil within” or the Patriarchal Cultural Egregore: the collective thought-form of domination, hierarchy, and separation that masquerades as authority.

The Charioteer’s Golden Light shatters this illusion not through combat but through illumination. As the rays of Tiphareth pierce the shell of the ego, the Adept perceives the false self for what it is—a phantasm sustained by unexamined belief. The true Self, united with the Angel, becomes an instrument of solar healing, radiating clarity, compassion, and sovereignty.

🜂 The Alchemy of Union

The meeting of the Soul and its Angel is the Mystical Marriage within Tiphareth: the Son reunites with the Father through the vehicle of the Chariot. This is the same mystery depicted in The Lovers (Key VI), now raised from passion to devotion, from polarity to unity of purpose.

In alchemical symbolism, this is the rubedo, the reddening of the Stone, when the volatile Spirit (Sulphur) is fixed in the purified vehicle (Salt) through the mediation of Mercury (the Angelic Intelligence). The Charioteer thus becomes the Solar Adept, the perfected image of Divine Consciousness moving effortlessly between planes, for he has become One with the Will that moves all.

✶ Hermetic Reflection

“The Angel and the Man are One; the two who travel the worlds are two faces of the same Sun.”

To meditate upon The Chariot is to invite the realization that guidance, protection, and purpose arise not from beyond us, but from the deepest, most luminous center within—the Angelic Self. Its golden current leads us out of bondage to inherited thought-forms and back into the freedom of self-sovereignty.

When this Light reigns within the chariot of the body, every act becomes sacred motion, every word the echo of the Crown’s “I Will Be.”

🌟 The Yechidah — The True Charioteer

In Western Hermetic Qabalah, the human soul is a ladder of five lights or levels of consciousness:

1. Nephesh — the animal soul, the instinctual and sensory vitality.

2. Ruach — the intellectual and moral self, the rational mind.

3. Neshamah — the intuitive or higher soul, the breath of Divine Understanding.

4. Chiah — the vital life force, the Will of the Divine manifesting in individuality.

5. Yechidah — the One, the pure spark of Kether, the “I Will Be” within the human soul.

The Yechidah corresponds to the Crown (Kether)—it is the Monad within the microcosm, the silent observer who rides within all vehicles of consciousness. It never incarnates fully; it drives the chariot of the soul through its emanations.

Therefore, when the Chariot is viewed esoterically, the radiant crowned figure is the Yechidah, the Divine Self or Holy Guardian Angel, operating through its lower expressions: the Chariot body (Ruach–Neshamah) and the Sphinxes (Nephesh and subconscious impulses).

👑 The Charioteer as Yechidah — The “I Will Be”

The Charioteer’s crown of stars corresponds directly to Kether, whose Divine Name is Eheieh—“I Will Be.”
This is the same essence as the Yechidah, the “One Self,” the spark that never leaves union with the Source.

In the Chariot, this spark directs the Soul’s evolution through incarnations and dimensions, unseen yet all-pervasive. The Adept who attains awareness of the Angel (HGA) has simply lifted the Ruach into conscious rapport with the Yechidah. Thus the HGA is the intermediary voice of the Yechidah—the way the Divine communicates with the human psyche.

🔆 The Holy Guardian Angel as the Manifest Voice of Yechidah

In Hermetic psychology:

• The HGA corresponds to the Chiah–Neshamah interface, the radiant intelligence through which the Yechidah transmits its Will.

• The Charioteer as depicted in Tarot is that radiant intermediary—the visible face of the invisible Yechidah.

“The Yechidah is the true Charioteer; the Holy Guardian Angel is the means through which It drives the Chariot.”

In other words, the Yechidah is the Driver, the HGA is the Voice, and the human Soul is the Vehicle.

🜂 The Great Alignment

When the Adept reaches Tiphareth and achieves Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel, the Ruach (self-consciousness) aligns with the Yechidah through the Angelic current. This alignment fuses the five souls into one conscious motion—the Chariot perfectly balanced and guided by the Crown.

At this stage, the Adept knows:

• The Nephesh (instincts) serve the Chariot’s motion.

• The Ruach (reason) interprets the road ahead.

• The Neshamah (intuition) receives celestial signals.

• The Chiah (Will) directs the energy of travel.

• And the Yechidah (Divine Self) is the eternal Rider who never leaves the throne.

✶ Hermetic Reflection

“The Chariot is not moved by wheels, but by the silent Will of the One who is everywhere and nowhere. The Yechidah is that One, enthroned within the heart of the Adept.”

Thus, the Charioteer is indeed the Yechidah—the undivided Divine Self.
The Holy Guardian Angel is its shining intermediary.
And the Chariot is the evolving soul, learning to move by Will alone.

Crowley documented his own interaction with his Holy Guardian Angel, whom he named Aiwass. Aiwass is credited with dictating "The Book of the Law" (Liber AL vel Legis) to Crowley in 1904, which is the foundational text of Thelema. While Aiwass is a specific entity in Crowley's personal spiritual experience, the Holy Guardian Angel concept is more general and applicable to each individual's unique spiritual guide.

In summary, while Crowley did not name a specific angel overseeing the tarot, the Holy Guardian Angel, an integral part of his spiritual and esoteric teachings, serves as the guiding intelligence behind the tarot and other mystical practices.

Obstacles cannot crush me. Every obstacle yields to stern resolve. He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind.

-Leonardo Da Vinci

🌕 The Triple Goddess Chariot — The Journey Toward the Greater Self

In the Triple Goddess Tarot, Key 7 – The Chariot depicts a lone rider galloping toward a sun-lit citadel atop a mountain. The scene is alive with motion: golden fire from the setting Sun ignites the castle in an aura of completion, while the red crab embroidered upon the saddle blanket marks the sign of Cancer, the Moon’s exalted house and the astrological gate of incarnation.

This imagery places the journeyer at the threshold between the Lunar and Solar mysteries—between the receptive intuition of the Goddess and the radiant assertion of the Solar Self. The red of Geburah burning on the crab’s shell signifies the disciplined force of desire transformed into directed Will. Here the rider is not escaping the world but ascending through it, racing toward the shining citadel of their own inner divinity.

🜂 Determination as Devotion

The horse becomes the purified Nephesh—the instinctual life-force now aligned to the spiritual quest. The rider’s motion symbolizes the courage to act upon one’s intuition with faith that every obstacle is a testing gate, not a denial. As Da Vinci wrote,

“Obstacles cannot crush me. Every obstacle yields to stern resolve.
He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind.”

That star is Tiphareth—the Solar Heart—where the Angel of the Self awaits. The citadel on the mountain therefore represents the Higher Self, the abode of the Yechidah whose light blazes through the clouds of personality.

🌸 The Feminine Principle in Motion

Unlike the armored male Charioteer of the traditional decks, the Triple Goddess version reveals the Chariot principle through movement and intuition rather than control and restraint. It celebrates flowing mastery: the ability to move with the rhythms of emotion and intuition while maintaining direction toward the light.

This expresses the Lunar aspect of Cancer—the nurturing waters that carry the soul forward. The Goddess principle teaches that strength is not opposition but responsiveness, not domination but devotion to the Inner Star. Thus, the Chariot’s victory is achieved through surrender to the momentum of the Soul’s deeper knowing.

🌞 Hermetic Synthesis — The Solar Path of the Heart

The blazing castle and the galloping horse together form an alchemical image of the Solar ascent: the red of Geburah (will) uniting with the gold of Tiphareth (beauty). The rider, as the incarnate consciousness, is drawn by both love and purpose toward reunion with the radiant source.

When this card appears, it calls the querent to move deliberately toward the Greater Self—to trust intuition as the Angel’s guidance and to ride the living current of will toward self-realization.

Summary Interpretation

“The Chariot is the momentum of the Soul once it remembers where Home truly lies.”

It reminds us that spiritual mastery is not stagnation but directed movement, the journey of the Psyche toward its own divine radiance. Each obstacle is a gate of initiation; each act of perseverance, a triumph of Spirit over inertia.

*The Theosophical Forum – May 1945

THE SYMBOL OF THE WINGED GLOBE — G. de Purucker

"The symbol of the winged globe, the globe carried through time and space on the wings of spiritual force or of the spirit, is one of the most beautiful of ancient Egyptian symbols, because it combines both religion and philosophy. The globe is just one form of representing the golden germ, Hiranyagarbha in Sanskrit, which in its movements through time and space is carried by the wings of the spirit on its evolutionary journey. This is the keynote of one of the thoughts of the winged globe.

Another thought about it, or aspect of it, is that the winged globe is the monad, which is in a sense practically the same as the cosmic germ or hiranyagarbha, and the wings there signify the same thing, conscious mind moving through space and time in the form of the monad and expressing its power in the movement of the wings, consciousness moving in the evolutionary journey upwards and upwards forever."

The association between the winged globe—seen on the Rider-Waite-Smith (RWS) Chariot card and the golden Solar globe on the Triple Goddess Chariot card—and the Hiranyagarbha of Sanskrit tradition is profound and esoterically rich. Let’s unpack this Hermetic-Vedic correspondence.

🜍 The Winged Globe: Hermetic Symbolism

In Hermetic and Egyptian symbology, the winged globe (or winged solar disk) represents:

• The Solar Logos—the divine creative intelligence in motion.

• Spirit descending into matter, yet retaining transcendence.

• The Sun in flight—a living emblem of soul-consciousness moving across planes.

• In Thelema and Hermetic Qabalah, it echoes Kether's Light descending through Tiphareth.

On the Chariot card, this winged emblem is placed on the charioteer's canopy or armor, signifying that his soul or Self (the Sun) is guided by higher motion, will, and divine origin.

🕉️ Hiranyagarbha: The Golden Womb or Cosmic Egg

In Vedic metaphysics:

• Hiranyagarbha (हिरण्यगर्भ) = “Golden Womb” or “Golden Embryo”.

• It is the primordial seed of the universe, the creative matrix from which Brahma (the creator aspect of the Trimurti) arises.

• Described in the Rig Veda (10.121):

  “In the beginning was the Golden Embryo, born the Lord, the only one who upheld the worlds.”

Hiranyagarbha is:

• The solar germ of creation.

• The seed of the cosmos that floats in the causal waters before time and space.

• Simultaneously womb and Word, it is the Vedic parallel to the Logos, the Fiat Lux, or Kether’s “I Will Be” (Eheieh) in Qabalah.

✴️ Bridging the Symbolism: Chariot as Vehicle of the Cosmic Self

By equating the winged globe on the Chariot with Hiranyagarbha, we see a unified esoteric language:

The Charioteer, crowned and armored, rides beneath the sign of this solar seed, indicating that he is a vehicle of the Creative Logos—his journey is cosmic individuation.

In other words:

The Chariot is not just an outer vehicle, but the embryonic cosmic Self coming into full self-direction. The winged globe or Hiranyagarbha above him is the seed of divinity he is learning to drive.

🔔 Closing Insight

• The winged globe as Hiranyagarbha shows how the RWS Chariot quietly encodes the Vedic vision of the Self as the divine center of the cosmos.

• The Chariot journey is not from place to place, but from potential to embodiment, guided by the soul’s own internal sun.

Meditation upon either card will get us in contact with the Divine Creative and safe travel through the "Astral Planes" of the Universal Collective Unconsciousness. In this mode of enclosure, as shown by the Chariot's enclosing walls, is called the "Merkabah"-meaning "Throne of God". This can be called a relationship between the emergence Self (Son/Sun) united with the Divine Creative, which protects the Psyche from the many illusions stored in the subconscious.
