Descending Light

Before the crown became a word A silent current crossed the height

It moved through wisdom into form And carried hidden fire as light

The branches opened one by one A path descending through the soul

What seemed divided found a line That joined the fragments to the

whole

The lightning descends through me

From the unseen into what can be Crown into root,

flame into clay

The hidden light becomes the way

Through understanding, strength and grace

The current entered heart and bone

It did not leave the world behind

It made the living world its home

I felt the pattern cross my breath

Then settle slowly in my hands

The highest point was not escape

But spirit learning how to stand

The branches wake

The current grows

The crown releases

What the root must hold

DESCEND

BECOME

KETER

TO MALKUTH

BRING THE FIRE DOWN

Let the light take form

The lightning descends through me From the unseen into what can be

Crown into root, flame into clay The hidden light becomes the way

The highest light entered the earth And learned the weight of birth
