The Qabalistic Tree of Life vs The &"Shamanic&" Tree
-
I've been sitting here and pondering this. In Qabalah this world is in Malkuth - on the bottom. In my country (Macedonia) and a lot more others around Europe that show shamanic roots the Tree is separated in 3 worlds: the roots are the underworld, the trunk is this world and the branches the upper world.
I was wondering are they even compatible? If so, how would you make any correspondences?

"When I think of a real tree i always associate the roots with the A.'.A, the body with the R.C. and the branches with the G.D.
There is no law beyond Do what thou wilt.

"That would be a great study in my book.
Certainly i can see the comparison that in some of the Shamanic Practice cultures, the Tree is a Living SYMBOL that is used (along with other Shamanic Technology)to change STATES/WORLDS like in HERMETICISM, and also used to 'find' and 'anchor' STATES/WORLDS, so one 'knows where they are' so to speak.evol
