Asaliah and the 7 of Cups (Venus in Scorpio)
Asaliah corresponds with the 7 of Cups in the Tarot, linked to Venus in Scorpio. This card symbolises the realm of illusion, temptation, and emotional projection—a landscape where multiple choices appear, yet not all are true or beneficial.
The Angel of Contemplation teaches discernment amid this complexity. Under Asaliah’s influence, the 7 of Cups becomes a lesson in seeing through illusion to perceive divine truth. He encourages seekers to identify the soul’s authentic desires and to reject fantasies or distractions that lead away from purpose.
Those born under Asaliah’s guardianship often feel drawn to psychology, spirituality, and esoteric study. They are natural truth-seekers, unafraid to question appearances and to explore what lies beneath. Misunderstood at times as dreamers or “conspiracy theorists,” they are in fact deep investigators of divine patterns and hidden wisdom.
The Weaknesses that Asaliah Can Transform
- False teachings and deceptive appearances
- Blindness to deeper truths
- Over-analytical thinking disconnected from intuition
- Egoic or false spiritual claims
- Idolatry and misplaced devotion
- Sexual or emotional confusion
Through the mantra Ah-She-Lah and still contemplation, these distortions are transformed into humility, wisdom, and radiant clarity.
Invoking Asaliah
Use the Ah-She-Lah mantra before meditation, study, or teaching to enhance concentration and insight. Chant his name rhythmically until the mind becomes still and receptive. Asaliah’s influence is strongest between 15:20 and 15:40 local time, though his energy may be invoked at any moment of sincere contemplation.
