Lesson 1: Unveiling the Essence of Kabbalah
Discover the heart of Kabbalah as we unravel its definition and historical context. Our journey will introduce us to the pioneering Kabbalists of the 13th century in France and Spain.

From oaths etched on bowls to intricate amulets, spells, and letter combinations, we will examine how Kabbalah can be wielded to influence the world around us. However, we will also explore the cautionary aspects, understanding what to approach with vigilance. By the end of this lesson, you'll gain a nuanced perspective on the intricate interplay between Kabbalah and magic.
