Texto original de Waite (1911)

Simbolismo interior (original)

A great, radiant star of eight rays, surrounded by seven lesser stars—also of eight rays. The female figure in the foreground is entirely naked. Her left knee is on the land and her right foot upon the water. She pours Water of Life from two great ewers, irrigating sea and land. Behind her is rising ground and on the right a shrub or tree, whereon a bird alights. The figure expresses eternal youth and beauty. The star is l'étoile flamboyante, which appears in Masonic symbolism, but has been confused therein. That which the figure communicates to the living scene is the substance of the heavens and the elements. It has been said truly that the mottoes of this card are "Waters of Life freely" and "Gifts of the Spirit."

The summary of several tawdry explanations says that it is a card of hope. On other planes it has been certified as immortality and interior light. For the majority of prepared minds, the figure will appear as the type of Truth unveiled, glorious in undying beauty, pouring on the waters of the soul some part and measure of her priceless possession. But she is in reality the Great Mother in the Kabalistic Sephira Binah, which is supernal Understanding, who communicates to the Sephiroth that are below in the measure that they can receive her influx.

Significado original del derecho

Loss, theft, privation, abandonment; another reading says—hope and bright prospects.

Significado original invertido

Arrogance, haughtiness, impotence.

Orígenes de mitos y símbolos

Waite calls the eight-pointed star the Masonic Blazing Star, and says the woman pouring the water "is in reality the Great Mother" of Kabbalah.

Esoteric correspondence

A sourced traditional claim, but constructed inside an occult system

The eight-pointed star: Waite names Freemasonry

The card shows one great eight-rayed star with seven smaller eight-rayed stars around it. Waite states that this star is l'étoile flamboyante, the Blazing Star of Masonic symbolism, and adds that the symbol "has been confused" within Masonry itself. The woman pouring the water kneels on one knee with one foot upon the water, emptying the Water of Life from two great urns over sea and land.

Fuente Waite, The Pictorial Key to the Tarot, 1911, The Star; l'étoile flamboyante is a Masonic symbol

The reading he gives is Kabbalistic, not Greek

Most people, Waite says, will take the figure for Truth unveiled — "but she is in reality the Great Mother in the Kabalistic Sephira Binah," Supernal Understanding, pouring down upon the Sephiroth below whatever measure they are able to carry. The downward pouring on the card lands, in the original book, on that Kabbalistic chain of descent, and not on any cupbearer deity. The Golden Dawn correspondence is Aquarius, Hebrew letter Tzaddi; Crowley, following the line "Tzaddi is not the Star" in The Book of the Law, swapped the letters of the Star and the Emperor — an argument internal to twentieth-century systems, which leaves the original Golden Dawn attribution untouched.

Modern reading

Popular only since the twentieth century; unrelated to where the card came from

The author himself does not much buy "a card of hope"

The standard reading is Star equals hope. Waite's own sentence: "the summary of several tawdry explanations says that it is a card of hope" — hardly a generous tone. What he offers instead is immortality and interior light, along with the Binah reading above. "Hope" is not wrong, but it is one drop squeezed out of the card, not the paragraph he actually wrote.

Fuente Waite's own verdict on "a card of hope" in the same entry, 1911; the modern standard reading

Hebe and Aquarius: another forced identification

The woman pouring the water is often taken for Hebe, the Greek goddess of youth and cupbearer to the gods, or read straight off as Aquarius personified. It is the same problem Temperance runs into: in the history of the imagery the act of pouring was the mark of something else first, and had a god's name fitted to it later.
