Unlocking Kabbalah: A New Synthesis of Astrology, Tarot, and the Tree of Life - Paperback

by Thomas Weems (Author)

The geometric diagram known as the Kabbalistic Tree of Life has been a central pillar of Western occultism and mysticism for centuries now. But what if the form of this mysterious figure, as we know it today, is actually a peculiar twist on a more ancient and fundamental design? In Unlocking Kabbalah: A New Synthesis of Astrology, Tarot, and the Tree of Life, we explore this intriguing premise by re-arranging the Tree of Life into a more logical and intuitive structure. What we discover is a map of reality with an extraordinary blend of elegance, balance, and simplicity. But perhaps the most astounding revelation to be found is that the wheel of the zodiac emerges from this design as a set of relationships between the seven traditional planets of ancient astrology.

Unlocking Kabbalah offers a radical and fresh interpretation of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, weaving together the elements of the Tree into a coherent story that is accessible, intuitive, and vitally compelling. The meanings of the paths and the Sephiroth are explored in a way that breathes new life and vision into the organic structure of the Tree as a whole, making it deeply understandable as a cosmic blueprint of our lived human experience. Woven into the narrative of the Tree are fresh insights into Tarot, psychology, magic, and the Law of Attraction. Most importantly though, this innovative vision of the Tree of Life offers striking new clarity into the understanding of astrology and the signs of the zodiac. For the most part, Kabbalah has remained a very abstract and remote philosophy, one that is difficult to pin down or connect to our everyday existence. Unlocking Kabbalah brings this mystical worldview down to earth, making it clearly accessible and vivid to both the mind and the heart.
