  • Prophecy/Astrology/Face and Palm Reading (Zohar- Yitro)

    Prophecy/Astrology/Face and Palm Reading (Zohar- Yitro)
    Jan 25 2022

    In this week’s Zohar, there are many fascinating sections about how to read a person’s face, eyes, lips, and hands, as well as teachings about astrology and prophecy. 

     

    At first, that seems strange since this week’s portion is a detailed description of the Mount Sinai revelation where the Jewish people receive the Torah from Hashem himself. So you would think this week would be an extended discussion about the mitzvot, which for sure there are teachings, but why mention astrology and face and palm reading in this very important parsha?


    We explore these questions and more in this week's episode.

  • Malchut: The Divine Queen (Zohar-Beshalach)

    Malchut: The Divine Queen (Zohar-Beshalach)
    Jan 14 2022

    In this week’s portion of Beshalach, there’s a tremendous amount of teachings in the Zohar that discuss Malchut, the Divine Feminine. The Zohar refers to Malchut as the Shechina, the Nukva, and the Matronita, the Divine Queen.

     

    The concept of the Divine Feminine is one that was originally introduced in the Talmud as the Shechina, the Divine presence in the world. Then, the Zohar took this concept and developed it much further as we shall see when we explore different themes connected to Malchut in today’s learning.

  • How will you dress your soul today? (Zohar-Vayechi-Day 2)

    How will you dress your soul today? (Zohar-Vayechi-Day 2)
    Dec 14 2021

    In this Zohar discussion, we will learn about the garments of our soul and how they're created through our actions.


    The greatest gift Hashem gave us is that of teshuvah- to have another chance at getting things right- by reconnecting to our highest selves and to cloth our neshamas with beautiful garments created by beautiful actions of truth, kindness, wisdom, love and compassion, joy and beauty. So ask yourself: "how will you dress your soul today?"
