What the card shows

In this Arcanum the heads of wheat represent rebirth, as do the flowers; the flowers, the beginning of life; the wheat, the end. A Hierarch of the Law cuts some sheaves of wheat which have grain of varying sizes, both large and small. These are what are called “Boby-Caldenos” and represent the values, the capital which each human being carries in his three brains (intellectual, motor, emotional).

— Samael Aun Weor, Tarot and Kabbalah, ch. 13

Its esoteric meaning

Death is really the return to the womb. Life and death are two phenomena of a single thing. Death is a subtraction of fractions; when the mathematical calculation ends, all that remains are the values of Consciousness. The values of the personality are subtracted. For the personality of the defunct there is no tomorrow, it has a beginning and an end. Trapped within the “Ego” are the values of the Consciousness.

— Samael Aun Weor, Tarot and Kabbalah, ch. 13

His synthesis

Immortality: Death and Resurrection “Transformations. Indicates Total Change.”
