What is Qabalah?

treeoflife

The Qabalah is a body of esoteric spiritual knowledge developed and codified by the ancient Jews. Whilst it can be thought of as the esoteric side of Judaism it clearly has strong Egyptian and Zoroastrian influences.

The Qabalah provides us with a systematic and logical view of the universe, its evolution and the energies within it.

The Qabalistic Tree of Life is a diagram (often called the “glyph”) that depicts the operating forces of the universe. Through meditation and contemplation of this symbol the student is able to access a huge body of esoteric knowledge and gain an understanding of the structure of the energies that created, and which continue to support the universe.

This knowledge enables us to focus the energies present in the universe to our creative benefit.
