In saying this I had in mind more particularly the “TAROT” and the literature on the “TAROT.” Fragments: One
What I heard interested me very much for it connected G.’s system with the system of the TAROT, which had seemed to me at one time to be a possible key to hidden knowledge. Moreover it showed me a relation of three to four which was new to me and which I had not been able to understand from the TAROT. The TAROT is definitely constructed upon the law of four principles.

But now I saw how three passed into four and understood the necessity for this division so long as the division of force and matter exists for our immediate observation. “Three” referred to force and “four” referred to matter. Of course, the further meaning of this was still obscure for me, but even the little that G. said promised a great deal for the future. Fragments: Five
