Connect the Dots, Part III of Episode 2 in The Mad Hatters Musings Series

Can you step out of the box without perpetuating the existence of the box?

In a 2-d environment the perspective is one sided but assumes the other; it's "paradox". So when considering the flip side of the square, things either are, or are not; thus concepts of good, evil, black and white, in/out, with/against, or other mutually exclusive, opposing, relative perspectives and possessives begin to gather a pong-like or tug of war momentum again.

Motion and shape are also restricted in the 2-d Emperor Four; limited to sequential movement around the points at the perimeter while underlying threats as well as all potential progress or partitioning exist backed into each corner (responses often restricted to the subjective/defensive/offensive, or "mine”, “yours”, “ours”, or “theirs”, "right", "wrong", or similar). In response the Foolish O Chariot VII can initiate Death, XIII (to transform IV, V, II etc.), and departs from the 2-d plane but remains relative to the point of the original form.

The Empress too can respond to IV, VII, etc. and quantum slide to Death so that either way the four 2-d points become three around one to form the three sided, 3-d tetrahedron, the simplest freestanding, stable, self sustaining architectural form that has the unique ability to self-produce, or evolve as a System, and which, because it's three sides co-create the base, 4, also has the properties to land us at VI, the Lovers!

Are we moving forward or back? Or are we beginning to leap between? Maybe we've just gone over the Fool's edge?

Ok, back to Square One (IV). Now start connecting all 4 points to each other and with six lines drawn, a cross section (by the Ace of Swords 1/11), or "Emperor's Kite" of conflict, or "sides" and quadrants emerge. (Inferring the High Priestess power again when 2 lines inevitably become 4 lines by one crossing the other, resulting in 4 dots and one shared point in Hierophant V, "+", co-creating 7 embedded squares in the Emperor).

This resistance is also formed from High Priestess' diametric opposition "x", or four Empress Triangles in the Emperor (that "congregate" as a shared point in Hierophant, V to become 8 contained and revealed triangles -- not to mention the implied relationships to Roman Ten X -- a whole one, divided/partitioned? Fairly screams out for Chariot or Lovers, for example, to make a Foolish or Magicians move!)

Anyway, back to "x" in the box. Together as four points around one they also form the 3-d four faced pyramid -- technically creating eight lines of tension, standoff, or connection that expose the need for perspective, natural order, rules, or hierarchical rank, groupings, leadership, alliances, and organization as found by four around one in the 2-d V Hierophant .

This Emperor's Kite is also revealed as a network Power Law in the pentagon of the Hierophant, and acts as a hub or bridge for the Page to transition into the Knight at the Minor Fives, or change course at the Hanged Man, XII, (a personal portal tri-braided into the Aces for testing The Fools, o Strength, 11/8).

Taking the form of a 3-d four sided pyramid (octahedron) its mirror reflection now gives birth to the 3-d cube, and this Four also reinforces the alternate shape-shifting potential when Square One was cross sectioned halfway between the points by the High Priestess to create multiple boxes as above (four smaller squares creating two medium rectangles creating one larger square introducing us to a sense of proportion, ratio, and scale providing us with options and theories that can divide, conquer, multiply and add, just for starters, but that only resolve into redundancy, revolution, or mistrust. Thus the cross section by way of the implied, embedded Empress Triangles are the inevitable systemic resolution to manipulating spacetime in the Emperor's Kite towards some sustainable progress, perspective, and evolving hierarchy.

Ok, I don't know about you but I can practically feel the potential for chaos building and so not only do we gravitate and congregate naturally towards the Hierophant V again to take charge and make sense of it all but this 3/4 Empress/Emperor combo hints at the coming Chariot's rebellious VII, both of which also form a Lovers VI origami sandwich portal. (BTW, at this point The Knight also seeks to identify himself away from the all embedded in the Hierophant by validation IN the portal of the Hierophant (via the “faceting” of 6 by 7’s passed through public portal of The Chariot and by “capture” or bestowal of the Queen of Wands 8 overlapping Empress triangles hidden within the structure of the Emperor’s Kite System. (Escape the madness now, while you can!)

Want to continue? Hmmm, you are daring my Page of Swords friend. Let us descend figuratively to details in The Devil, XV, together then, shall we?

(End Part III)
