      VICTORY    SIX OF WANDS      This card represents Tiphareth of the suit of Fire. This shows Energy in completely  balanced manifestation. The Five has broken up the closed forces of the Four with revolution‐ ary ardour, but a marriage has taken place between them; and the result is the Son, and the  Sun.    The reference is also to Jupiter and Leo, which seems to imply a benediction on the  harmony and beauty of this arrangement. It Will be seen that the Three Wands of the Three  Adepts are now orderly arranged; and the flames themselves, instead of shooting out in all  directions, burn steadily as in lamps. They are nine in number, in reference to Yesod and the  Moon. This shows the stabilization of the Energy, and its reception and reflection by the Femi‐ nine.    There is no circle to enclose the system. It is self‐supporting, like the Sun.
