Tree of Life
also known as Etz Chaim, World Tree
The central glyph of Kabbalah: ten Sephirot joined by twenty-two paths, mapping how divine unity descends from Kether into Malkuth and how the soul ascends back. A universal Axis Mundi echoed in Yggdrasil, the Bodhi Tree, and the world-trees of many peoples.
Hebrew Etz Chaim — 'tree of life.'
