Welcome to the Clear Light Door - Tree of Life game

This game picks a random card to start which determines a starting point on the tree of life, representing the journey through life and/or our current spiritual lesson.
Each card in the minor arcana is associated with one of the sephira(blue spheres) on the tree of life while the major arcana cards represent pathways between them.
After the first card a random possible pathway from the current position on the tree is chosen and this determines which card or cards show up next. You get 7 steps or cards per game. Click the New Game button to start and the Next button at the top to play another card/take another step on the tree.
Each pathway through the sephira is equally valid although reaching malkuth represents having learned the current spiritual lesson.
Some lessons are easier than others and are learned immediately while others may need to come up again before they can be understood.
In Kabbalah the energy flows down from God to the individual and back again through a lightning or z shaped pattern.

There is no path forward.

8 Of Cups

In the foreground of this card are stacked 8 cups. A man is walking away from the cups, making his way over a desolate moor. This card symolizes a feeling of emotional lacking or incompleteness and an abandonment of the situation. This card asks you to focus on the things you have to appreciate or to deal with the emotional issues that you have rather than running away from them.

This card is associated with the sephira of hod and the world of formation.
Astrological/elemental association: Saturn In Pisces

Devil

The devil in this card looks like a giant man with a goat head and the feet of a rooster. He is perched on a black block and a chain coming from it connects a pair of naked figures that look much like the figures in the lovers card. The man has a tail of fire and the woman a tail made of grapes. Grapes are an interesting theme in tarot and connect this card to the King of Pentacles. The devil's right hand is raised in salute with a split between his middle and ring fingers like a high priest. The mark of Jupiter is on his hand. The energetic influence of Jupiter obscures the light of the Divine. The devil holds a downward pointing torch in his right hand, symbolizing using the fire of creation for destruction. An inverted pentagram, the reverse of the symbol of nature, appears over his head. This is a card of ego and addiction and slavery. If there is goodness in this card, its that its the step before the Tower which blows the top off the ego. This is the last necessary step to making the fool see the misery of the path of ego.
The devil sits on the 26th path from hod to tiphareth

5 Of Wands

The five of wands shows a pack of youths fighting with staves. This card represents conflict, anger, competition, immaturity. The nature of the battle is unlikely to be deadly. The battle seems to be one of foolish cause and without purpose in that there is nothing to win. Perhaps this card suggests not to squander resources on pointless fighting. Geburah speaks to organization. Sometimes the way things are structured, like a corrupt political system, leads to fighting.

This card is associated with the sephira of geburah and the world of creation.
Astrological/elemental association: Saturn In Leo

Strength

This card pictures a beautiful maiden with a halo gently closing the jaws of a fierce lion. The woman has an infinity symbol floating above her head with a crown growing with flowers. Her garland sash is likewise made of green leaves and blossoming flowers. The land is verdant and green around her and the sky is clear. In terms of spiritual transformation, "The deeper meaning is that the Secret of all Spiritual Activities is the power of vibratory energy. This is symbolized by the roar of the lion, and control of this energy is symbolized by the hands of the woman who grasps its mouth." ~ Emmanual Rose This energy of the strength card manifests differently at different levels. The strength is the same but its use is different with different outcomes.
The strength card sits on the 19th path from binah to tiphareth as well as the path from geburah to chesod.
This card is associated with the Hebrew letter teth.
Origin:
Zohar: "its good is hidden within it."
Mystical reference: Initiation and kundalini
Astrological/elemental association: Leo

Knight Of Cups

The knight of cups is reminiscant of Joan of Arc or Lancelot of Camelot. The rider is attractive and shows signs of creativity and for an appreciation of the feminine while remaining a warrior and a knight. The knight quests for something he does not possess. The heart of a lady. The card suggests both the simplicity of a Romeo looking for his Juliet but also a subtle warning to look always within for with seems to be lacking.

This card is associated with the sephira of tiphareth and the world of creation.
Astrological/elemental association: Air Water

Justice

This card depicts a king on a throne with a sword in one hand and a set of scales in the other. He wears a crown with a square symbolizing the law. On his chest is a circle symbolizing harmony bounded by a square. A curtain stands between two pillars behind him and the throne he sits on does not have a visble back to the chair. The curtain is a symbol of a veil over reality and he is its guardian. The figure wears a green mantle over a red robe and a white foot is visible from beneath the robe. White is a symbol of purity and red a symbol of passion while green is a symbol of nature and regeneration. These colors reflect the geometric shapes in the card. This is a card of balance and a perspective on managing the sword that is the mind. Law is a form of restraint. In terms of the ultimate, God cannot know lack or limitation and thus, restraint can only exist in the world of creation, in the world of illusion. In this case, the restraint of ego and the bounding of it by law is a way of moving towards humility and the removal of ego.
Justice sits on the 22nd path from geburah to tiphareth.
This card is associated with the Hebrew letter lamed.
Origin:
The symbol of lamed represents an ox goad.
Mystical reference: The path of lamed connects the sephira of geburah (strength) and tiphereth (beauty) suggesting the need to balance impariality with the ability to act/make judgements of mind. By virtue of being strong and disciplined the beauty of the soul is evoked.
Astrological/elemental association: Libra
