Here is a recipe for forming a metamagick merkabah out of the 32 paths of the tree of life. In the schematic for the Tetrahedron ring, you can see how eight tetrahedra are so arranged that the numbers 1-32 (and the meanings of those paths - for those who have read Crowley's 777 or other similar tomes) give magickal resonances. Each tetrahedron has the total value of 66, for example. Comparable faces across all 8 tetrahedra give the value 132, meaning QBL, "to receive", the root of "Qabalah".
There are further mysteries - but the main key here is that this is a set of instructions for how to transform the tree of life into a merkabah - a stellated octahedron. Once the 32 energies have been transfered to the ring, separate the tetrahedra and put them into the eight directions. Next form an octahedon at the centre of the circle - attached is a map which gives all 22 major arcana on the this figure. Finally draw the tetrahedra into the circle and connect them to the eight faces of the octahedron. Enclose them all in the cube and chant the hexagrammaton: AHIHVH (whose value is 32), to seal the chariot.
To load the tetrahedron ring with proper energy it is helpful to draw an image that relates to each of the 32 paths in the appropriate cell of the ring. Study the numbers, study the tree. There is no replacement for this background work, but once you are ready, the entire Tarot can be assimilated into this magick cube Chariot.
Be ready to fly.
