Cosmic Dust

Zodiacal light is a faint glow caused by millions of tiny particles along the western path followed by the sun, moon, and planets across our sky–this week is a good time to spot some.

Where are the sun, the moon and all the planets going? The Torah teaches that the Shakina/Presence is in the west and therefore all creation pursues Her because the Shakina is the spiritual manifestation of the feminine energy. In our haste we raise up dust.

The delineation between heaven and earth as described in the Talmud-Book of Law is in heaven life stands while on earth life walks; a sign of this are birds who do not walk but jump as if having only one foot. In Jewish prayer where the words of the angels are quoted it is customary to put the feet together and make a little jump in the midst of our supplications.

The Zohar-Book of Secret considers the entire solar system of ten physical orbs to be one world where the human being on the earth with seven continents and three oceans is patterned after. In the womb of the universe our little planet is where life is being conceived.

The continual life and death process of our earth is building a cosmic body racing to the Shakina; as scientists observe–the universe is speeding up and the dust is rising into the heavens.
