Synopsis

Qabalah has been called ‘the yoga of the west’ – like yoga and Buddhism it is both ancient and ageless and putting its principles into practice can help you lead a healthier and more balanced life.

Qabalah is an ancient mystical Jewish tradition which provides moral guidance along with more esoteric teachings such as physics, numerology and astrology. The Hebrew word is literally translated as ‘that which is received’ and following the Qabalah means both finding out about its ancient wisdom and being receptive to it through the chaos of the modern world.

This introductory guide is practical, accessible and packed with information including:
• the history of Qabalah
• how it compares with other spiritual systems
• an explanation of the symbolic represenation of the Qabalah – the Tree of Life
• Qabalah and how it relates to magic, astrology, mythology, numerology and the Tarot
• where you can go to find out more
