Comments (0)Everyone talks about the “Tree of Life,” but few realize this tree is derived from a kabbalistic idea of 10 sefirot or divine emanations/powers. Those are:
1. Keter (crown): Corresponds to the super-conscious realm of experience, reflects God is all, His omnipresence, His omnipotence
2. Binah (wisdom): Associated with the power of conceptual analysis and reasoning, the ability to explain
3. Chochmah (intelligence): Associated with the power of intuitive insight
4. Gevurah (strength): Associated with restraint, ability to overcome one’s internal and external enemies
5. Chesed (kindness): Associated with goodness and love
6. Tiferet (magnificence): Corresponds to the characteristics of compassion, pride and mercy
7. Hod (glory): Indicates the power to continually advance, of deep inner commitment, of perseverance, manifests itself as the power to express gratitude
8. Netzach (eternity): Associated with the power to overcome obstacles, denotes both victory and eternity
9. Yesod (foundation): Associated with the power to contact, connect and communicate with outer reality, identified in the Torah with the tzadik
10. Malchut (kingship): Associated with self-expression, it’s often referred to as the world of speech
There’s a specific order for the sefirot from center, right, left, center, beginning with keter, to chochmah, binah then to chesed, gevurah, tiferet, netzach, hod, yesod, and finally malchut.
