Quotes
- The introduction of the number Five shows the idea of motion coming to the aid of that of matter...The result is a complete upset of the statically stabilized system. Now appear storm and stress. (The Book of Thoth, p.180)
- Despite the fact that Geburah is a feminine potency, as are all Sephiros [sic] on the left-hand column of the Tree, practically all its attributions are male and vigorous...This is not confusion of thought, but a recognition of the necessity for equilibrium." (Regardie, 1994)
- Geburah represents on a much lower plane the Sakti force-element attributed to Binah. (Regardie, 1994)
- The quality of Geburah is summed up in the general idea of strength and power and force. (Regardie, 1994)
