The Deity [the ever invisible Presence] manifests itself through the _ten_ Sephiroth, which are its radiating witnesses. The Deity is like the sea from which outflows a stream called Wisdom, the waters of which fall into a lake named Intelligence. From the basin, like seven channels, issue the Seven Sephiroth.... For _ten_ equal _seven_: the Decad contains _four_ Unities and _three_ Binaries. The Ten Sephiroth correspond to the Limbs of Man. When I [the Elohim] framed Adam Kadmon, the Spirit of the Eternal shot out of his Body, like a sheet of lightning that radiated at once on the billows of the _seven_ millions of skies, and my _ten_ Splendours were his Limbs. But neither the Head nor the Shoulders of Adam Kadmon can be seen; therefore we read in the _Siphra Dtzenioutha_, the “Book of the Concealed Mystery”: In the beginning of Time, after the Elohim [the “Sons of Light and Life,” or the Builders] had shaped out of the eternal Essence the Heavens and the Earth, they formed the worlds six by six. The seventh being Malkuth, which is our Earth(382) on its plane, and the lowest on all the other planes of conscious existence. The Chaldean _Book of Numbers_ contains a detailed explanation of all this. The first triad of the Body of Adam Kadmon [the three upper planes of the seven (383)] cannot be seen before the Soul stands in the presence of the Ancient of Days. The Sephiroth of this upper Triad are: “1. Kether (the Crown), represented by the brow of Macroprosopus; 2. Chokmah (Wisdom, a male Principle), by his right shoulder; and 3. Binah (Intelligence, a female Principle), by the left shoulder.” Then come the _seven_ Limbs, or Sephiroth, on the planes of manifestation; the totality of these four planes being represented by Microprosopus, the Lesser Face, or Tetragrammaton, the “four‐lettered” Mystery. “The _seven_ manifested and the _three_ concealed Limbs are the Body of the Deity.” Thus our Earth, Malkuth, is both the _seventh_ and the _fourth_ World; the former when counting from the first Globe above, the latter if reckoned by the planes. It is generated by the sixth Globe or Sephira, called Yezud, “Foundation,” or, as said in the _Book of Numbers_, “by Yezud, He [Adam Kadmon] fecundates the primitive Heva [Eve or our Earth].” Rendered in mystic language, this is the explanation why Malkuth, called the Inferior Mother, Matrona, Queen, and the Kingdom of the Foundation, is shown as the Bride of Tetragrammaton, or Microprosopus (the Second Logos), the Heavenly Man. When free from all impurity, she will become united with the Spiritual Logos, _i.e._, in the Seventh Race of the Seventh Round—after the regeneration, on the day of “Sabbath.” For the “_Seventh_ Day” again has an occult significance undreamed of by our theologians.
