Hall Of Records - אתהפכא חשוכא לנהורא



I am still in process of building my Hall Of Records for my Craftwork Of A Jewitch blog. Right now, it contains a Kingdom of Shadows, nine Grimoires (gates) and a Scroll Of Dreams - for a total of 11 "categories". Eleven is a prime number and represents uniqueness.

Eleven Gates of Etz Chai

Below is the list of the eleven 2-letter hebrew roots [1] I have currently chosen to represent the gates to the categories in my Hall of Records:

Kingdom Of Shadows - הא - behold, being, exist, she, he, it

Grimoires:

1 (purification) - בו - lift, come, in it, move from public to private domain, entrance

2 (persecution) - רמ - elevate, targeted movement, pomegranate

3 (symbolism) - טפ - measuring with one's hand, attach, writing board, measured steps

4 (mindcraft) - שז - look, braid, link parts together, impact

5 (timecraft) - נס - miracle, prove, challenge, test, anointing, consecrating, raise signal, webbing, pour into a particular place, travel, ascend

6 (wordcraft) - כל - everything, all, complete, restrain, contain, sustain

7 (toolcraft) - דג - standard, signal, multiply, rally

8 (ritualwork) - תק - repair, complete, straight, ready, power, authority

9 (nite rites) - עצ - concentrate energy toward a goal, strengthen, exercise authority

Scroll Of Dreams - חי - full of life, vitality, healthy, living, chayah & yechidah, shem chai


Footnote:

[1] A 2-letter hebrew root is called a sha'ar (gate). See Sefer Yetzirah 2:4. There are eleven 2-letter arrays which correspond to the sefirot as they "exist" in the Universe of Tohu. The eleven "unique arrays" have both a "front" and "back" - corresponding to the prophetic reverse vision of ra'oh and chazah.
