原文

She has the lunar crescent at her feet, a horned diadem on her head, with a globe in the middle place, and a large solar cross on her breast.

The scroll in her hands is inscribed with the word Tora, signifying the Greater Law, the Secret Law and the second sense of the Word.

It is partly covered by her mantle, to shew that some things are implied and some spoken.

She is seated between the white and black pillars–J. and B.–of the mystic Temple, and the veil of the Temple is behind her: it is embroidered with palms an

d pomegranates.

The vestments are flowing and gauzy, and the mantle suggests light–a shimmering radiance.

She has been called occult Science on the threshold of the Sanctuary of Isis, but she is really the Secret Church, the House which is of God and man.

She represents also the Second Marriage of the Prince who is no longer of this world; she is the spiritual Bride and Mother, the daughter of th

e stars and the Higher Garden of Eden.

She is, in fine, the Queen of the borrowed light, but this is the light of all.

She is the Moon nourished by the milk of the Supernal Mother.

In a manner, she is also the Supernal Mother herself–that is to say, she is the bright reflection.

It is in this sense of reflection that her truest and highest name in bolism is Shekinah–the co-habiting glory. According to Kabalism, there is a Shekinah both above and below.

In the superior world it is called Binah, the Supernal Understanding which reflects to the emanations that are beneath.

In the lower world it is MaIkuth–that world being, for this purpose, understood as a blessed Kingdom that with which it is made blessed being the Indwelling Glory.

Mystically speaking, the Shekinah is the Spiritual Bride of the just man, and when he reads the Law she gives the Divine meaning.

There are some respects in which this card is the highest and holiest of the Greater Arcana.

翻譯

她腳邊有一道新月，頭上戴著有角的皇冠，皇冠中間有著球狀物(也可以翻譯為地球)，一個巨大的太陽十字架在他胸前。她手裡的卷軸刻畫著 Tora，這卷軸是神的律法、神秘法則、與第二世界意識帶來的訊息。

這卷軸因為她的披風而半隱半現，代表卷軸內的事情有些可說，有些不能說。

她坐在黑白兩色的柱子中間，神秘聖殿柱子寫著B與J，聖殿的帷幕掛落在她身後，帷幕刺繡著棕梠與石榴。

法袍如薄紗般垂掛在身上，披風暗示著微微閃爍的光點。
她被稱為神秘的科學，也是Isis女神聖殿的起源，但實際上她是神秘的教會，是神與人們的家。

她代表王子的第二段婚姻，雖然王子已不在這個世界上；她是靈性的新娘與心靈的母親、星星的女兒、與高尚的伊甸園。

最後，她是借來光明的皇后，但這光芒照亮眾生。她是至高母神用牛奶滋養的月亮。

換個角度看，她也是代表至高母神，也就是說，她是光明本身的反射。

在反射的意思下，她真實與最高的內在名子即是「神的榮耀」(註一)–共存的榮耀。

根據卡巴拉秘傳教義，神的榮耀乃是通天徹地。

在上級的世界中稱為「Binah」(註二)，這個超凡的理解反映出底層世界(註三)的發散狀態。

最底層的世界是 (MaIkuth)(註四)，這世界存在，因為內在的榮耀而被理解為受祝福的王國。

根據神祕學的說法，「神的榮耀」是男人的精神式新娘，而且當男人閱讀這個律法時，她(女祭司)就會提供神聖的意涵。因為這些敬重的見解，這張牌是所有大阿爾克納中擁有最高地位與最神聖的牌。

註一: Shekinah 希伯來文 「Shekinah」(發音：希開那)：耶和華來居住了 ，希伯來原文「shakan」是個動詞，它衍生了一個非正式的名詞叫做「Shekinah」(發音：噓開那)。
衍生神的榮耀彰顯在某個地方。 (參考台灣聖經網每日一詞)
註二: Binah 在卡巴拉生命之樹中10個圓質中，代表理解。
註三: 底層世界應該是指生命之樹的最底層世界，此世界即為物質界。
註四: 生命之樹中，最下面的圓質(中文翻譯為王國)，代表物質界。
