Sephirot - Two Configurations of The Sephirot: Iggulim-Circles and Yosher-Upright

Two Configurations of The Sephirot: Iggulim-Circles and Yosher-Upright

Two alternative spiritual arrangements for describing the Sephirot are given, metaphorically described as "Circles" and "Upright". Their origins come from Medieval Kabbalah and the Zohar. In later, 16th-century Lurianic kabbalah, they become systemised as two successive stages in the evolution of the Sephirot, during the primordial cosmic evolution of Creation. This evolution is central to the metaphysical process of tikkun (fixing) in the doctrines of Isaac Luria.
