Magical Image of the Seven of Disks

In the third face of Taurus ascends a man in whose hand is a Serpent, and a dart, and is the image of necessity and profit, and also of misery & slavery.

A polarity appears for the first time. Gain versus lost. Necessity is something required, indispensible.

Picatrix shows the potential for gain as well as loss, which has been glossed over in modern interpretations.
