In so doing, the estimable Mr. Crowley misidentified the correspondences of 12 planets/planetary ensigns out of 22 trump cards. See? The chart below compares proper identification on the left with Aleister Crowley's 10 hits and 12 misses on the right: Tarot Actual Aleister Aleister Major Planet Crowley's Crowley's # Arcana & Sign Scorecard ID / misID ------------------------ ---------------------- X Fool - Pluton Wrong - "Air" IX Hermit - Neptune Wrong - "Virgo" VIII Star - Uranus Wrong - "Aquarius" VII Judgment - Saturn Wrong - "Fire" VI Emperor - Jupiter Wrong - "Aries" V Tower - Mars Right - "Mars" IV Sun - Sun Right - "Sun" III Empress - Venus Right - "Venus" II Magician - Mercury Right - "Mercury" I Moon - Moon Wrong - "Pisces" ------------------------ ---------------------- 12 Hanged Man - Pisces Wrong - "Water" 11 Temperance - Aquarius Wrong - "Sagittarius" 10 World - Capricorn Wrong - "Saturn" 9 Fortune - Sagittarius Wrong - "Jupiter" 8 Death - Scorpio Right - "Scorpio" 7 Justice - Libra Right - "Libra" 6 Priestess - Virgo Wrong - "Moon" 5 Strength - Leo Right - "Leo" 4 Chariot - Cancer Right - "Cancer" 3 Lovers - Gemini Right - "Gemini" 2 Hierophant - Taurus Right - "Taurus" 1 Devil - Aries Wrong - "Capricorn" IN CONCLUSION, *Crowley wasn't even half-right, whereas he was more than half-wrong...so do what thou wilt, etc. *Edward Alexander Crowley was born at 36 Clarendon Square in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, England, some say about half an hour before midnight Oct 12, 1875 (approximated). With Uranus on the Ascendant, his birthtime is rectified to about 12:45 AM Oct 13, 1875 with Sun 5 Ven, Mer 6 Jup, Mars 8, Sat 9, Moo 10, Nep 11, Plu 12, Uranus soul-journ. Aleister Crowley was an extremist--if ever there was one! Uranus is the sphere of extremes, very good, or very bad. We see Crowley was a lot of both, tending toward the bad by a factor of 54% bad to 46% good or more bad than good.
