The King of Hearts have many names, but all point to One. In Gypsy Card he is the Lover or the King. Yet his names illuminate the creation of the universe—a truth that cannot be encapsulated in a single word but is revealed through many. Known as YHVH, derived from the Phoenician Sanskrit Yah-Vah, it translates to “The One Who Expanded Into The Universe.” This essence speaks of Genesis, the inflation of creation, the cosmos, and ultimately, You.
Many have pondered the meaning of "Israel" and its connection to the King. This term clarifies who the King of Hearts is, linking back to Genesis and unfolding like an ancient cipher that has awaited millennia to be revealed.
Iz -- or Is represents the light seen and manifested—the intelligible flame, feminine in quality. This illumination allows the observer to witness the dance of existence. If El is the spark and Ra the rhythm, Is becomes the reflection—the awareness, the supreme spirit, also known as Agni, derived from the Sanskrit Ag-ni (“carrier of Fire”). This meaning extends to Isis, from the Sanskrit word Isira.
Ra -- is often simplified to “sun,” yet its significance runs deeper. It embodies the balance of creation, the radiating energy that follows the zero point—the motion after stillness. Ra isn’t just light; it’s directional energy, the breath of harmony, the heartbeat of existence. It symbolises gold, splendour, brightness, and elevation. Ra evolved from the Phoenician P, or phi, indicating units united, representing the 'unification of 3.'
El -- transcends “God”; it signifies the primordial spark. Λ (Lambda) embodies the resonance of creation—the silent breath before sound, the singularity that exists before form. It marks the point where duality has not yet split, the zero-point, L=Lambda, derived from the Phoenician letter. This letter symbolises beginnings, the z-axis—the starting point, 0.
The name El also manifests as El-Yah, Allah, Ellil, Enlil, Elam, and Be-El (soul of God), each of which speaks to the zero-point expansion into the universe we experience today. Ra and Lambda (El) represent the axes upon which values of z are measured, where both x and y equal zero.
Together, Iz-Ra-El signifies: Iz = Witness (fire, Agni)— Ra -Balance (light) — L -Origin, (El, Lambda) encapsulating the full consciousness of being. However, it suppose to be Iz-Ra-Sus... Sus is breath, frequency. Without breath it is death.
This is not mere theology; it’s physics intertwined with myth, myth enshrined in language, and language imbued with memory.
The Emperor or King’s number is 30, which breaks down to 3 and 0. The 0 finds its reflection in the tarot as the Fool. The number 3 speaks to the multifaceted nature of the King of Hearts while also representing the singularity—the characteristics that exist within the ‘Emperor’ as one entity.
The final touch—Yah-Sus—is the breath, the frequency, the life-giving sound that animates the entire construct.
Yah signifies the sacred breath, the open vowel, the primal exhale of life. A whisper through the void carries the vibration of intent. Yah-Sus embodies both the seed and the womb—potential evolving into reality.
Sus transcends the translations of “salvation”; think of it as the hum beneath all things—like the cosmic resonance that sustains life. It encapsulates the hum of the sun, the sway of the ocean, the very pulse of creation. Sus is the continuation of Yah—movement from breath to being.
Thus, when we strip Yah-Sus away from Is-Ra-El, we are left with a structure devoid of spirit, light without life, form stripped of frequency. It’s akin to a body without breath.
This is the uncovered, forgotten code from the Ancient Phoenicians—today’s Gypsies.
This isn’t about religion.
It’s not about dogma.
It’s the symphony of sound, symbol, and soul—hidden in plain sight.
