About spiritual ethics

The character of his followers, worshipers, and admirers best speaks of the authenticity of a spiritual teacher. If you really respect your teacher, doctrine or worldview, which you adopted from him, you will never impose it on anyone.

Draco

Le Tarot Astrologique / Georges Muchery & Henri Armengol

Caput Draconis, or the Dragon's Head, is represented here in the capacity of the fire element, while Cauda Draconis/Dragon's Tail is dark, chthonic, earthly, or aquatic, belonging to the depths. These two figures together form the imaginary Dragon. However, there are other perspectives. The Dragon's Head is the Cross, actually the cross of light, which is a symbol of both the Sun and the Earth, thus linking Caput Draconis with the letter T. This letter represents the foundation of eternal life, the foundation upon which the serpent ascends. Also, in Kabbalah, the letter T (Tau) belongs to Saturn. The figure of Cauda Draconis can also be of a fiery nature, but this fire is chthonic, infernal, and volcanic. The Dragon's Tail pertains to blacksmiths and metallurgists. It is the hammer, but also the phallus. As a tool of penetration and force, the Dragon's Tail has its counterpart in the letter F, or in the Hebrew letter Shin, which signifies a tooth and has the attribution of fire. Together, the letters Tau and Shin form the word Sh-e-T, which is Seth, Sheitan, Shaytan, whose symbol is the ascending serpent, or the serpent on the tree. The word composed of the letters Shin-Tau also means foundation, basis, which is the meaning of the ninth lunar sephira of the Tree of Life diagram. Additionally, this combination of letters forms the word "to set." It refers to something that is placed, established, or reinforced... Thus, there is an association with erection and raising. Conversely, Tau-Shin in Hebrew can signify weakening.

Based on this, it is certain to say that the name of old God is pronounced by placing at the beginning the letter that denotes what is below, and then what is above. Thus, what is below comes at the beginning, and what is above ends up at the end. This is the evolutionary formula of the ancient deity, which differs from the involutionary YHVH, which descends in a square order from above to below.
