### sense in the lessons

Interpretation: In Sefer Yetzirah, the thirtieth path is called the Collecting Intelligence. It is said to gather the powers of the stars and signs, so that astrologers could judge from them. In the primary lessons: maths: things gathered and added; often a rate per day (total = rate × days); science: collect data, collect leaves or rainwater; school: collect the books, collect money for a charity; everyday life: collect a child from school, collect the rubbish; phrases: «collect up», «collect your thoughts»

### examples

- The Thirtieth Path is the Collecting Intelligence, and is so-called because Astrologers deduce from it the judgment of the Stars, and of the celestial signs, and the perfections of their science, according to the rules of their resolutions.

Collecting adds; a rate per day gives a product. Trap: what is collected may later be given away. A week has 7 days, so 5 a day for a week is 35. A collection is what you collect.
