What the card shows
In the waters of life a scorpion within an inverted triangle, signifying that with the spilling of the Vessel of Hermes we, like a scorpion, kill the Divine Mother. In the middle section are two pyramids, one black and one white, symbolising the positive and the negative.
— Samael Aun Weor, Tarot and Kabbalah, ch. 18
Its esoteric meaning
It is necessary to study, analyse, and reflect profoundly on the esoteric content of this Arcanum. Arcanum number 18 is light and shadow, white magic and black magic. This is represented by the black dog and the white dog; the black pyramid and the white. By adding kabalistically Arcanum 18 we find that 1 + 8 = 9, the Ninth Sphere, sex. We have already said that within our planetary organism there are 9 interior strata; these are the 9 vaults of occult Masonry.
