Oooh! I always thought 5 is Venus, because she makes a 5 pointed “Venus rose” or pentagram during her 8 year cycle. And most flowers associated with Venus including the wild rose, are 5 petal flowers

And it’s why the heirophant card is the 5th card and ruled by Venus

Aaw it's so beautiful thinking about Venus' pentagram!

With the Qabalah Tree of Life, Mars is 5 and Venus is 7. But / and there are so many different associations! Venus is also tied in to the number 6, The Lovers. It's infinite!

Thinking about this makes me wonder about the role of desire in the 5 of Swords, and how that shapes our thoughts and beliefs...

Ahh the the Kabbalah tree of life. I haven’t really dived deep into that philosophy but what I have seen is the Venus glyph is overlayed perfectly on the Kabbalah tree of life

There are so many lenses to interpret through I love that you’re a photographer too!
