The Tree of Life and Death in personal empowerment

I will start from the tree of life, as there are way more sources about it. The tree of death is the mirror opposite of it.

**Tree of life** The concept comes from the Jewish Kabalah. It's a tree helping you to grow your personal power and bring forward the knowledge you need to connect to the higher consciousness and the universe. It looks like this :

As you might see the tree of life is made of spheres. Every single one is having another purpose, correspondences, and beings. You start at the very bottom and as you pass the sphere of Malkuth, you remove the first veil. This one is connected to the ego attachments, especially physical ones.

**How do you move over the spheres?** There are two ways. You can move by the method of lighting moving from sphere to sphere to connect with them and use their power. Every sphere holds it's own trials for you to face. The lighting:

You can also use the connections or tunnels between the spheres and use the path of the serpent.

The serpent is moving from one to another, following every single connection on the tree. It's about experience and understanding what your trials will bring to you. This takes much of the time, sometimes all your life.

**The veils** I already explained the veil of Malkuth, but there are other ones you will need to face too.

**The veil of Paroketh** Sometimes named as the veil of the temple. It's between Chesed, Geburah, and Tiphereth and it's connected to the illusions surrounding this world and you. It helps you to understand the true purpose of your life and move forward.

**The veil of Abyss** This one is up from Chesed. After you will pass it, it will help you connected to the divine and universal energy. It might bring forward many trials to see your strength and evolution.

**The horizontal movements**

You can also move by horizontal ones which are named pillars. There are 3 of them, every single one connected to Different color.

**The black pillar** Connected to the feminine energy and judgment, contains Binah, Geburah, and Hod. It's related to the darkness and dark night of the soul, facing yourself and helping you to face your fears. Connected to the Saturn. **It's not negative dark!**

**The white pillar** It's opposite to the previous one. It's masculine energy, love, compassion, and understanding. Connected to the Mercury. It brings positive change and allows us to heal.

**The grey pillar** It's a connection between the two of them. It's neutral harmonizing both of them at once.

I believe it's all about the tree of life for now. I don't want to go into details of every sphere - too much is to be said and I don't want to push too much information at once for you.

I will go now to the other tree

**Tree of Death** As the tree of life brings you towards the universe and connects you with its power the three of death it's the opposite. It helps you to connect with yourself, and your shadows, fears, and problems. It forces you to look deep inside yourself.

As the tree of life is connected to the angles, the tree of death is connected to the demons. Every sphere demands summoning specific spirits.

You can move forward the same way as you do with the tree of life. The tunnels are named Tunnels of Seth. You can reach its power or move slowly over then too.

Below you will find the two pictures comparing both of them. I believe a person should first work on Qliphoth (tree of death) and then moving towards Sephiroth (tree of life) in order to make its work best and most effective.
