The Tree of Life
Ancestral Healing

The sephirot, which are finite and measurable, are not, however, static objects, like fixed, solid rungs on the ladder of the progressive revelation of the divine attributes. They are, on the contrary, dynamic forces, ascending and descending, and extending themselves within the area of the Godhead. This dynamism is found both in their hidden existence, which is oriented upwards towards En-Sof, and also in their association with the lower world, as forces of creation and direction of the universe. They are in continuous motion, involved in innumerable processes of interweaving, interlinking, and union. Even their order changes as a result of their internal movement, and “their end is fastened into their beginning”.

Tishby, commentary in Wisdom of the Zohar

The Kabbalistic Tree of Life is a symbolic representation of a multidimensional realm encompassing ten interconnected spheres, linked by 22 pathways. It is divided into four worlds:

✵ The supernal world beyond which is the ain, or nothing. ’The Source’.

✵ The creative world of archetypes and ideals.

✵ The formative world. The power of manifestation.

✵ Manifest creation, the material world.

The Tree is considered to be a map of the universe and the psyche, the order of the creation of the cosmos, and a path to spiritual illumination. But it is not necessary to go into these realms in depth in order to utilise the Tree for a past life or ancestral healing intervention as it takes you back to a primal, original and infinite energy state.

Ancestralite resonates particularly well with this layout, but you can use any of the healing stones that dowse as appropriate. Dowse for the order in which to lay the stones. You can either lay them over the body and the chakras — the crown, heart, sacral and base or base and earth star form the ’backbone’ with the other spheres linking into other chakras. Alternatively, place over an ancestral tree or photograph.

The Kabbalistic Tree of Life is an integral part of the Flower of Life, see the following page.
