Live Kabbalah: Living from the Soul

In this powerful and deeply healing session, Rabbi Amichai Cohen sits down with breakthrough coach and shadow integration expert Doron Yitzchak for a timely and soul-stirring conversation as we prepare for Pesach.

🔥 What is the shadow?
🔥 Why do our deepest wounds hold the keys to our greatest breakthroughs?
🔥 How can Chametz (leaven) teach us about ego, expansion, and contraction?
🔥 What does true freedom really mean?

Doron unpacks the true essence of shadow work, how the soul forms its “negative imprint,” and why radical self-acceptance is the foundation for real transformation.

This week’s Torah portion is Vayakhel, which is often read together with the following portion, Pekudei. These two portions share a unique connection, as they both recount the building of the Mishkan, the Tabernacle. Previously, in Parshiyot Terumah and Tetzaveh, Hashem commanded the construction of the Mishkan and its vessels. Now, in Vayakhel and Pekudei, we see the actual execution of those instructions.

The Mishkan was built under the leadership of two great individuals: Betzalel ben Uri from the tribe of Yehuda and Oholiav ben Achisamach from the tribe of Dan. Rashi explains that Hashem specifically chose leaders from both the highest-ranking tribe (Yehuda) and the lowest-ranking tribe (Dan) to emphasize that the Mishkan belonged to everyone.

Purim & the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo: Surrendering Control

This year, Purim aligns with a lunar eclipse in Virgo, a cosmic push to release control and trust the unknown. Virgo seeks order and clarity, while its opposite, Pisces, embraces mystery and faith.

Like the Purim story, where hidden miracles unfolded beyond human planning, this eclipse asks us to balance effort with surrender. The concealed hand of Hashem is always at work, even in chaos.

Let go of rigid expectations. Trust divine timing. In the space between clarity and mystery, true transformation happens.

Purim is the holiday of the unknown. It is about experiencing uncertainty, darkness, and even fear—yet knowing, deep inside, that something miraculous is forming. The Jewish people faced an existential threat, an annihilation decree looming over them. From their perspective, everything seemed lost. But in the background, Hashem was orchestrating a salvation beyond their comprehension. Only in hindsight did they realize how every detail was divinely arranged.

Our lives often mirror this experience. We stand at junctures where the future is unclear, and fear grips us because we cannot predict the outcome. But Purim reminds us that even when we cannot see it, divine providence is at work.

Purim is one of the happiest and deepest holidays on the Jewish calendar. It is a time of joy so profound that it is said to be eternal. As the Megillah states, "These days of Purim will never cease among the Jewish people." But what is it about Purim that makes it so special?

Join us on the Live Kabbalah Podcast as we explore the power of shadow integration and what it truly means to experience a breakthrough. In this deep and insightful conversation with Doron Gibor, we uncover the hidden aspects of the self, the role of Kabbalistic wisdom, and how the Ana B’Koach prayer can elevate our consciousness.

As we step into the month of December, the energy of Sagittarius invites us to embrace a time of transformation and exploration. Sagittarius, known for its inquisitive nature, encourages us to remain open to learning and growth. This period is not just about accumulating knowledge for its sake but also about applying what we learn in meaningful ways. It's a time to share insights and wisdom with others, fostering a sense of community and connection. This energy is especially potent as we navigate through the various shifts happening in our lives and the world around us.

December also marks a significant astrological shift with Pluto moving into Aquarius, signaling the beginning of a new era. This transition prompts a shift from a Capricorn mindset—focused on structure and tradition—to an Aquarian consciousness, which is more about embracing the unknown and seeing beyond the physical realm. It's a call to move away from fear-based thinking and toward a more holistic understanding of the world, where everything is interconnected. This shift challenges us to care for the world collectively, pushing us beyond our personal circles.

The energy of Sagittarius aligns with the idea of the bow and arrow, symbolizing the stretch required to propel us forward. This metaphor illustrates how apparent setbacks or periods of reflection can actually serve as the launching pad for greater achievements. The month invites us to embrace vulnerability and flexibility, recognizing that true growth often comes from these moments of introspection and recalibration. It's about understanding that every event, even those that seem challenging, is part of a larger, beneficial process.

As we navigate through this month, there's an emphasis on moving from intellectual understanding to heartfelt wisdom. This transition from head to heart encourages us to embrace inclusiveness and compassion, moving beyond rigid divisions of right and wrong. By tapping into the heart's wisdom, we can cultivate a more profound sense of peace and connection with others, recognizing the shared humanity that binds us all. This shift in perspective can open us up to new ways of communicating and relating to the world around us.

Ultimately, the month of December, under the influence of Sagittarius, is about embracing change with an open heart and mind. It's a time to explore new possibilities, to learn and grow, and to share our discoveries with others. By doing so, we not only enrich our own lives but also contribute to a more compassionate and interconnected world. As we journey through this transformative time, may we find the courage to embrace the unknown and trust in the unfolding path ahead.

The universe is not an empty void but a vibrant symphony of creation, a masterpiece orchestrated by G-d. This grand composition is often called the Song of Creation or Perek Shira. This harmony surrounds us at every moment, inviting us to tune into our inherent connection to all existence.

The world is experiencing a powerful awakening of feminine energies, reflecting the expansion of global consciousness. Gevurah, one of the ten sefirot and a soul power within us, channels energy inward, fostering a deeper connection to our authentic selves. When our energy becomes scattered or overly tied to others’ needs, we risk losing our sense of self in a cycle of people-pleasing. Healing begins with the essential practice of cultivating healthy boundaries.

How Sharing Our Differences Can Lead to Love, Connection, and Redemption.

As technology evolves—from radio to social media—it opens new doors for sharing our beliefs, connecting us, though it can sometimes create division. In this class, we explore how our differences can become a powerful path to unity, love, and redemption. Guided by the spiritual wisdom of Kabbalah and Chassidut, we dive into the art of creating a true dwelling place for the Divine by living authentically and forming meaningful connections.

Together, we journey beyond the ego’s pull toward division and comparison, moving toward love and unity by embracing our deep interconnectedness with all of creation. This reflection reminds us that we are so much more than our roles and identities, inviting us to connect to our truest selves.
