Re 2:7
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
Re 22:1
And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
Re 22:2
In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
Re 22:3
And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
Re 22:4
And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
Re 22:5
And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
There is a lot of symbolism of Christ there, and also the water you mentioned. If you place the major arcana Tarot cards on the 22 paths on the Tree it is even more astounding in it's interconnections. To meditate on a card is to give you the subjective awareness of that Path on the Tree.
The 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet also fit on the 22 paths. The letters on the middle pillar Tav (T), Samek (S), and Gimel © spell Teseg. To Remove or to be taken away.
This is the experience of Jacob's Ladder (The Tree of Life) when he Dreamed a Dream and saw angels ascending and descending from heaven.
Then he set up a stone for a landmark.
Pr 22:28
Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
Jacob of course was one of the "Fathers" being one of the Patriarchs.
I had that experience. It is also called the Coat of Many Colors but most do not recognise that when reading the bible because their teachers never experienced it.
Also that river of the water of life flowing through the cards on the Tree. It starts behind the veil of the Holy of Holies on the Empress Card and is seen in several cards sometimes as a pool or ocean or stream. At the endon the Universe Card it is an ocean of pure Blue white Lightning.
Jesus not only bid us to eat of his Fruit, (of the Tree of Life) in the verse above, but to drink of that ocean of energy.
Joh 4:14
But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
By the way, the Wreath that the woman hovers in in the World or Universe card at the bottom is a "Vesica Pistis" The Vagina of the Universe as Don Juan used to say.
