HOW THE SEFIROT INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER AND THE WORLD

There is a holiday, which the sages say will one day be celebrated by all the world. Its called Sukkot. In this holiday, four species are taken -the willow, the myrtle, the palm branch, and a citron and they are held together and shaken in all directions then thrusted towards the shakers own body.

The purpose of this is to gather the strengths of the various attributes of God (Chesed, Gevurah/Din, Tiferet, etc)and draw them towards the Malchut within us. Mankind is the vessel that can "deal". It doesn't shatter.

Once someone's faith is established, this process is -in a very layman's terms- is like what's taught in the movie or book called The Secret. Making one's will, like the will of God's Divine Presence. In this way, we acquire much.

================================================

Malchut is seen as feminine. The other attributes (We are not talking about Keter, Chochma, Bina here) are seen as masculine.

In all the various worlds, and in simple man and woman as well, the masculine generally comes to the Feminine. He is aroused by her "waters" (tears? sexual fluid flow? I guess it depends on the situation). He then provides for her and also sends "waters" from above. This can be seen as rain clouds providing water for the earth, the Holy One providing for us, a simple man providing for his wife, or whatever else happens in whatever world we are discussing. The perverted ones (may they never find this blog) may see it as a valid reason to attack a woman, God forbid!

Just as in Holiness /Kedushah, we draw with the help of the four species, the strengths of the attributes of God towards us. Something like that can happen without holiness -as we are hearing in the news these days. (We should never know from such things!)

===================================================================

What of the masculine and the masculine? The feminine and the feminine? Two symbolic providers. Or two symbolic receivers. I believe the Bible states its an abomination because it doesn't flow with the purpose of creation, with the patterns that we are seeing in all the worlds. However, as for judging a fellow for such behavior, that is not for us to do. Surely everything has its purpose!
