The Ten Sephirot of the Tree of Life
The sephirot are the ten emanations through which Kabbalah describes an unknowable God becoming something a person can stand in relation to. They sit on three pillars and are joined by 22 paths. Each has its own page, with the Jewish tradition kept apart from the Hermetic correspondences added in the 19th century.
For how the whole structure works, read The Kabbalah Tree of Life Explained.
The three pillars
- Pillar of Mercy
- Chokhmah, Chesed, Netzach — expansion, giving
- Pillar of Severity
- Binah, Gevurah, Hod — limit, form
- Middle Pillar
- Keter, Tiferet, Yesod, Malkhut — balance
- Paths
- 22, one for each letter of the Hebrew alphabet
