It is the sign of motion itself, good or bad, and expresses the renewal of things with regard to their innate power of Motion.\nThe Resh is a double letter, and responds astronomically to Saturn.\nTWENTIETH CARD OF THE TAROT.\nThe Judgment.\nAn angel with fiery wings, surrounded by a radiant halo, sounds the trumpet of the last judgment. The instrument is decorated with a cross.\nA tomb opens in the earth, and a man, woman, and child issue from it; their hands are joined in sign of adoration.\nHow can the reawakening of nature under the influence of the Word be better expressed? We must admire the way in which the symbol answers to the corresponding Hebrew hieroglyphic.\n1. Return to the divine World. The Spirit finally regains possession of itself--\nORIGINAL DETERMINED MOTION.\n2. Life renews itself by its own motion--\nVEGETABLE LIFE.\nRESPIRATION.\n3. The material world progresses one degree in its ascension towards God--\nTHE VEGETABLE WORLD.\n| AFFINITIES | SIGNIFICATIONS | \n| Hieroglyphic Primitive: The Head of Man Astronomy: Saturn Day: Saturday Hebrew letter: Resh (double) | ORIGINAL AND DETERMINED MOTION __________ RESPIRATION Vegetable Life | \n| OBSERVATIONS | THE VEGETABLE KINGDOM |","title":"Tarot of the Bohemians: Chapter XIII.
