The Scarlet Woman is a goddess figure, or more abstractly, she is the embodiment of female sexuality and liberation and is associated with
Binah, one of the spheres of the tree of life. Look into Crowley’s interpretations on the subject, and instead of thinking in the “orthodox” ways of doom and gloom, think in the grander terms of the cosmos, universal rebirth, a union of energies, egalitarianism, etc.Perhaps you need not take these ideas so literally either. Perhaps they are symbolic or representations of subconsciousness, or perhaps they are merely historical allegories and thus metaphorical. You’re free to decide, but I see the view you hold as being one that restricts, constrains, and divides.
