Zodiac Colors

This is using the four color scales from the Golden Dawn for the planets and signs, and applying them to my own astrological correspondences and path assignments based on R.J. Stewart and my own work. The Golden Dawn and Levi correspondences are based on the path - these are the trumps they assign to the path.

Compared to the path assignments of the Golden Dawn, these do not cause elemental dignity conflicts between the astrological correspondence of the sephiroth connected and the correspondence of the path itself, with one exception (Libra).

Modern Planets / Three Elements

On the Gra Tree, the horizontal paths are assigned to the Mother Letters: Binah to Chokmah is Shin (Fire), Gevurah to Chesed is Aleph (Air) and Hod to Netzach is Mem (Water). In R.J. Stewart's writings, he emphasizes the concept of the "three wheels", Judgment, Justice and Fortune. There should be some sort of symmetry in what is assigned, and this is not present in the various Victorian schemes.
