Tree of life

It also represents the regions of the human psyche

February 7th 2026
The Tree of Life is a representation of the different regions of the universe. But it also represents the various realms of the human psyche, and in this sense, it helps us understand the path we must follow if we want to gain access to the invisible world.
The first sephira, starting from the bottom, is Malkuth; it represents the physical plane, the earth. From Malkuth we leave the physical plane to enter the psychic plane, Yesod, the region of the moon. Yesod marks the beginning of all psychic life, and as such, it is a step up in relation to Malkuth. However, the psychic life begins in regions of mist and vague, indistinct forms; these are the lower levels of Yesod, which have not yet been touched by the light of Tiphareth, the sun. So we must pass through this region very quickly and go beyond it to discover the world of light and reason―the world of the spirit. Here, our real work begins.
