COLOUR SYMBOLISM

A second figurative death occurs for very few on the spiritual path, far more profound and far more important spiritually than rebirth, and this ‘death’ is called ‘Annihilation’ or Ego-death. After ‘Ego death’, one figuratively becomes an "Emperor" or "Empress", but not a mundane one, a spiritual one. The strong sense of a separate self must ‘die’, figuratively speaking, and one must be "resurrected" . In mundane symbolism, Tyrian purple was the "imperial" colour, because Tyrian purple dye, was and is, extremely expensive. But spiritually, the Tarot Emperor and Empress represent the highest roles a human can achieve. The colour purple may be used, but it is not Tyrian purple, indeed it does not even have to be purple, as such the Tarot role has no symbolic connection with wealth or power. And it would be wrong to mix the mundane meaning of the words Emperor and Empress with the spiritual meaning that the Tarot uses. The Tarot Emperor and Empress are human but "divine" - "they have let go of everything and discovered the kind of faith that can pass through the darkest moments...." If they succeed, the rest of their life is spent as an "immortal"... a Seer - a wise man or woman - of the highest order, divine. ========================== CREDITS PAINTINGS DRAWINGS AND PHOTOS [WHERE KNOWN] The Ripley Scroll – Yale bird-detail Michael Pacher - Flagellation Margherita Pavesi Mazzoni - Nigredo, Albedo, Rubedo--the pilgrimage of the soul through the metamorphosis Lawrence Alma Tadema - antony-and-cleopatra-1883.

"Deep Purple" was the biggest hit written by pianist Peter DeRose. DeRose was a musician and composer, and "Deep Purple" ended up being his most famous song. It was written in 1934 as a piano composition, the lyrics were added later. The group Deep Purple is named after this song, as it was a favourite of one of the group's grannies. But Peter DeRose might have known a bit more than we realise as his other songs include “Who Do You Know in Heaven?”, “God of Battles”, “I Hear a Forest Praying”, and “God is Ever Beside Me”. https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=bZlpJlqhmV0 VIDEO EFFECTS AND FOOTAGE Graph animation https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=YrQ0um9SMm0 Copyright Free Video and Music | Tulips Flowers Scenery https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=FvEtNv7z-Ec Yellow and Violet Tulips Flower Garden 4K Copyright Free Stock Video https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=r0JlU7piFKU purple flowers moving with the wind free footage https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=XUqC5Iu9ZXQ Tulips flowers pink violet footage video https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=NY9tgqqDqw4 Purple Abstract Background https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=gIBBhsx3ywg Purple Dust Gradient Background video | Footage | Screensaver https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=XJqQHuAj4RI Violet Tulips Flower Garden 4K Copyright Free Stock Video https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=ZGmZgHBK50s Slim Woman in Purple Bikini Swimming with Backstrokes - Free Stock Videos https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=wmgKzXp5oJ4 purple dress https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=SMwIjD-6oTs Purpura Dyers - Oaxaca https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=PkSIiC5xkgs Purple tinted beetle https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=94rN91olrD4 Passion of The Christ - Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=XipkYbNOcyI Total Solar Eclipse (2017) https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=G10m2ZZRH4U MUSIC 00:00 Far Apart - Causmic 01:47 Vishnu - Patrick Patrikios 03:36 Ceremonial Prelude - Sir Cubworth 06:34 Anomalous Hedges - Mini Vandals 09:51 Pastorale - Joel Cummins 12:33 Sarabande - Joel Cummins 14:27 Impending Boom by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100198 Artist: http://incompetech.com/ 16:56 Far Apart - Causmic

Astrologically, Mars is associated with "aggression, confrontation, energy, strength, ambition and impulsiveness". It is said to "govern sports, competitions and physical activities in general". Mars is also associated symbolically with Red - a distinct deep blood red colour. But Mars was second in importance only to Jupiter and Saturn to the Romans. Why? Because symbolically he was also associated with courage - passionate, energetic and adventurousness courage. And in this video that is the trait we will be exploring. The courage that can move mountains. ======================= CREDITS PAINTINGS AND PHOTOS Photography Professor Rod Smallwood – many landscape photos [with many thanks] eg South stack with climber, Hope valley, Schynige Platte, Lake District, Punakha Dzong Frederick Sandys – Love’s Shadow Frank Dicksee - La Belle Dame sans Merci Rubens - Rhea-Silvia-and-Mars-Ares Edgar Degas - combing-the-hair-la-coiffure-1896 Pen Hadow – Solo North Pole 2003 courtesy Martin Hartley Matthew Henson - was an African American explorer who accompanied Robert Peary on seven voyages to the Arctic over a period of nearly 23 years.

Pink symbolically describes love, where the love is largely ‘feminine’ in nature. It is intended to symbolise guileless, somewhat innocent love, the love that one has for children, for example, and the love a child may give. Love tempered by moderation no great waves of gushing sentiment. ======================== CREDITS The anonymous poems were extracted from an anthology of love poems, all other poems are attributed PHOTOS by David Rock-Evans, & Saija Lehtonen PAINTINGS Anton Raphael Mengs - Hesperus as Personification of the Evening Star (1765).
