Tali, the Dragon, is above the Universe, as a king on his throne; the sphere in the year as a king in his State, the Heart of man as a king in warfare. And our God made the states of opposition, good and evil, good from the good, and evil from the evil. Happiness is reserved for the just, and misery for the wicked ones.

Isa. 27.1.Elusive Serpent.-c (14) These are but glimpses of His rule, The mere whisper that we perceive of Him; Who can absorb the thunder of His mighty deeds?

It was stated that Rabbi Ḥanina says: A constellation makes one wise and a constellation makes one wealthy, and there is a constellation for the Jewish people that influences them.

(1) Ben Zoma said: Who is wise? He who learns from every man, as it is said: “From all who taught me have I gained understanding” (Psalms 119:99). Who is mighty? He who subdues his [evil] inclination, as it is said: “He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that rules his spirit than he that takes a city” (Proverbs 16:32).

And out of the triad one stands apart; and in the heptad there are two triads, and one standing apart. The dodecad symbolizes war, the triad of amity, the triad of enmity, three which are life-giving, three which are death-dealing, and God, the faithful king, rules over all from the throne of his sanctity. One above three, three above seven, and seven above twelve, and all are linked together, and one with another.

Three:/ Each one stands alone/ one acts as advocate/ one acts as accuser/ and one decides between them./ Seven:/ Three opposite three/ and one is the rule deciding between them./ Twelve stand in war:/ Three love,/ three hate,/ three give life/ and three kill/ Three love: the heart and the ears./ Three hate: the liver, the gall, and the tongue./ Three give life: the two nostrils and the spleen./ Three kill: the two orfices and the mouth./ And God faithful King rules over them all/ from His holy habitation/ until eternity of eternities./ One on three/ three on seven/ seven on twelve,/ And all are bound, one to another.
