Kabbalah means to receive, and as a tradition, it preserves the visions and knowledge of not only ancient Jewish mysticism, but the Babylonian and Egyptian religions that also influenced it. The Tree of Life, acts as a roadmap for all of creation and for the divine energy that flows into and inside all things. It was an important way of understanding the world for later traditions as well, including the Gnostics and Occultists. They used it to interrelate many different systems of human knowledge and spirituality, including astrology, numerology, and even modern science. Each sphere, shell, and path have associated names of God, angels, Hebrew letters, colours, aspects of the body, elements, Tarot cards, and much more. In reality, these divine attributes are multidimensional vortexes of cosmic energy that connect an interconnect through everything. As such, their study is a powerful tool for personal ascension.
