Magical Stones Of Quantum Wave-Particle Complementary

וְגָלְלוּ אֶת-הָאֶבֶן מֵעַל פִּי הַבְּאֵר
and they rolled the stone from the well's mouth ... Bereshit 29:3

The Hebrew word used in this phrase for stone is ha-avan (האבן meaning "the stone"). Ha-avan is derived from the same root as the word me-avanei (מאבני meaning "my petrified/fossilized stone"), the stone upon which Jacob rested his head during his angelic encounter in Bereshit 28:11 -

וַיִּקַּח מֵאַבְנֵי הַמָּקוֹם
and he took one of the stones of the place ...

Importantly, both words, namely ha-avan and me-avanei, are derived from the shoresh (three letter Hebrew root) אבן which means "to create using a special tool." The shoresh itself is derived from the sha'ar (two letter Hebrew root) בן. The sha'ar בן pertains to "building", "understanding" and to the idea of something being "composed of." These roots are most directly associated with functions of the feminine sefirah Binah (בינה) and to the creation of somethings "becoming composed of" matter and becoming infused with the basic energy of mindful intelligence. Taken together, we can understand that the sha'ar, shoresh and words along the intra-root continuum of בן - האבן - אבן - מאבני - pertain to an ever increasing particularization of 'something' into matter. In other words, when we are using roots and words derived from the sha'ar בן we are specifically using roots and words linked to the origin and development of an esoteric quantum mechanical particle within the wave-particle complementary nature of elementary light, energy and matter.

Another word in Hebrew for stone is gal'ayin (גַּלְעִין), derived from the shoresh גלע which means "reveal" and "uncover." The shoresh itself is derived from the sha'ar גל. The sha'ar גל pertains to a "wave movement", a "wave style" and "rejoicing." Eureka! Rejoice! we can understand then that the sha'ar from which the stone gal'ayin derives pertains to 'almost something' which is not materialized into particle matter. In other words, gal'ayin refers to the 'almost something' quantum complementary wave-nature of elementary light, energy and matter.

The sha'ar בן solidifies matter and pertains to particularity. On the other hand, the sha'ar גל reveals the essential nonmateriality of matter and pertains to the universality of which particularity partakes on its way into manifest existence. Taken together both she'arim occupy a continuum of unified consciousness able to exquisitely act within many frames of experience simultaneously, even particularity and universality.

The sha'ar גל is used in Bereshit 9:21 - וַיִּתְגַּל בְּתוֹךְ אָהֳלֹה - and it was uncovered in her tent.

וַיַּרְא חָם אֲבִי-כְנַעַןאת עֶרְוַת אָבִיו

Peace In The Land Of Promise

Bechukkotai

Your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time; and ye shall eat your bread until ye have enough, and dwell in your land safely. And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid ... Vayikra 26:5-6

וְהִשִּׂיג לָכֶם דַּיִשׁ אֶת-בָּצִיר, וּבָצִיר יַשִּׂיג אֶת-זָרַע; וַאֲכַלְתֶּם לַחְמְכֶם לָשֹׂבַע, וִישַׁבְתֶּם לָבֶטַח בְּאַרְצְכֶם.

וְנָתַתִּי שָׁלוֹם בָּאָרֶץ, וּשְׁכַבְתֶּם וְאֵין מַחֲרִיד

As I lay me down to sleep the shabbat night during the 37th day, which is five weeks and two days of the Omer ...

I note today a vision I had last night in response to caressing the new Sage Witch Elder Wand (made from the branch of an Elder tree in Wales) I received yesterday from the UK.

As I lay down to bed last night after 'oo-ing' and 'ahh-ing' over each nook and cranny and knobby knot of my new wand, I was startled by the joyfully smiling vision of myself as a little girl when I was about seven or eight years old, my life so full of promise, beaming her radiance directly at me. I was embraced by waves of joy in loops of loops, and continue today to be wholly embraced and permeated by the profound simple joy and contentment of meeting myself face to face in this Land of Promise.

In the tradition of Irish Faery Witchcraft, the Land of Promise is called Tir Tairnglre.

In Jewish Kabbalistic tradition, the Land of Promise is called Ha'aretz Hamuvtachat (הארץ המובטחת).

Here, now ... I am in it.
