 Malkuth
Oil (Earth), Hermetic Qabalah Style
This sephirah is what magical workers
must master in order to be successful at what they do. The perfume usually assigned to this sephira is
dittany of Crete. I was able to infuse some oil with dittany
of Crete I grew last summer, with which I combined a dittany of
Crete bouquet I created from various essential oils, including oregano,
lemon, rosemary, mastic, and others. It is a richly herby scent
that has darkened wonderfully with age and now smells as if it has
touches of frankincense and earth.
Malkuth represents the physical world in
the Kabbalistic Tree of Life as well as the divine presence
in that world, which is known as the
Shekhinah. It is often shown as a young woman wearing a crown; it is
the bride or the queen (Malkah), a reflection of Binah--and in some
perspectives of the Kabbalah, Binah is the throne upon which Malkah/Malkuth
sits. Malkuth is Mother Earth, Gaia, but also the entire universe. It is in Malkuth
that natural magic occurs and that one has the vision of one's Holy Guardian Angel. I chose the crow as a symbol here
because this sephira coincides with the first step
in the alchemical process, which is symbolized by the crow. The
fermentation that the crow represents means that for the first stage
of knowing, one has to act and to let go. Top
