#asiyah

idk thinking about how unified the asiyah sephirot are compared to the others. in lobcorp they all have the same black suit w/ color-coded tie and armband uniform while the other layers get to be fancy about it. and tiphereth hates them. in ruina they (+general works, +guest advantage/preparation phase) all share the same musical themes (story, level 1, level 2, and level 3), but arranged in different ways befitting their personalities, while the others all have unique melodies. I lament their lack of unique outfits in lobcorp, but I lament the fact that we didn’t get to see the same theme arranged for the entire library in lor (bc they did so well making all the existing remixes sound great). and they have this art of them standing together pissed off at you

Drew this for my best friend @nahliahslostmind a while back of our Touchstarved MC's Cecelia (mine) and Asiyah (hers). Yes Asiyah has a Soulless cat named Prince.

Asiya's sealphirah

From earlier sources, the Kabbalists of Safed, and in particular Cordovero, had adopted the doctrine of four worlds placed between the En-Sof and our earthly cosmos—a doctrine of which no trace is to be found in the major part of the Zohar. In Safed, this theory was for the first time more fully elaborated and Luria, too, accepted it, though in its own way. The four worlds are: (1) Atsiluth, the world of emanation and of the divinity which has so far been our subject; (2) Beriah, the world of creation, i. e. of the Throne, the Merkabah and the highest angels; (3) Yetsirah, the world of formation, the chief domain of the angels; and (4) Asiyah, the world of making (and not, as some translators would have it, action). This fourth world, similar to Plotinus’ hypostasis of “Nature,” is conceived as the spiritual archetype of the material world of the senses.
