🌳Tree of Life Review: Binah🟣
Comprehending Lovely Spiritual Awareness!
Binah 🟣
SEPHIROT #3 · PILLAR OF SEVERITY · UNDERSTANDING
Binah is the Supernal Mother, the Primordial Root, the comprehending combustion chamber where Understanding is forged or fashioned. She receives the lightning flash of Chokmah and gives it form. Where Chokmah dreams, Binah rationalizes. She is the Organizer and the Stabilizer, redirecting energy, force, and magick through the Chalice of her Womb. Her virtue is Silence, her vice Avarice. She is the first container, the processing sea from which all structure arises, alighting creation and limitation.
