What is the relationship between the Enneagram and the Kabbalistic Tree of Life? In what way do these two sacred maps allow us to glimpse the unfolding of reality and the nature of our souls? Can their combined wisdom offer us tools for personal transformation and new understandings of how our type’s wings can help lift us back to the divine? Through discussion, interactive exercises and contemplative practice derived from the Jewish mystical tradition, we will share in an exploration of our personalities and a journey of our souls.
