Yesod
The
God-name associated with Yesod is El Chai Yesod
means "foundation". It is the basis on which all the higher Sephiroth rest, and
it is the basis through which the higher Sephiroth channel their influences in
to Malkuth. Yesod contains all those thoughts, actions and deeds
that can become manifest in the physical world through the action of
Malkuth. Yesod is the ultimate communicator. It is this Sephirah that
transmits the influences of all the higher Sephiroth. Contact with Yesod opens
us up to the Divine message coming from on High. It also allows us to transmit
our messages back up the Tree to G-d. Yesod also represents the
male sexual organ. A truly loving sexual relationship also a high form of
communication. In such a relationship the masculine-feminine interplay in
Netzach-Hod combines and merges in to the communication of
Yesod. Yesod is related to the realm of dreams. In Judaism it is aid that
the soul leaves the body during sleep and ascends the Tree of Life. Dreams are
the messages, often garbled, that the soul brings back in to the body when we
wake.
