      VIRTUE    THREE OF WANDS        This card refers to Binah in the suit of Fire, and so represents the establishment of  primeval Energy. The Will has been trans mitted to the Mother, who conceives, prepares, and  gives birth to, its manifestation.    It refers to the Sun in Aries, the Sign in which he is exalted.    The meaning is harmonious, for this is the beginning of Spring. For this reason one  sees the wand taking the form of the Lotus in blossom. The Sun has enkindled the Great  Mother.    In the Yî King, Sol in Aries is represented by the 11th hexagram, Thai; its meaning is  identical with the above description.
