Okay, so I seem to be waffling a bit here. Is it going to be Science or Qabalah?
The answer is BOTH!
So I integrated a Universal Timeline into the four Qabalistic Worlds. I did this because
I am compelled to do it for my own benefit. Or peace of mind!
This is just a crude outline covering the most basic anabolic processes:
ATZILUTH, The Divine World:
Prior to the existence of Time and Space
Pre Big Bang, The Primordial Point, or Singularity.
This is analogous to the conception of the Universe in the MIND OF GOD!
* (At this point the SUN only exists as a Divine concept)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BRIAH, The Creative World:
0.0 - 0.5 Billion Years
Initial expansion of the Primorial Point(Kether)
Space did not exist prior to this. This "expansion" is actually the Universe becoming
filled with space, and with movement and change marks the beginning of time.
Some of the lighter Atoms have completed forming as the Nuclei are beginning to
capture Electrons.
* (The SUN has not begun forming at this point, but the Atoms it uses in the Fusion process
are becoming available)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YETZIRAH, The Formative World:
0.5 Billion Years - Present(14 Billion)
- 0.5 Billion
The first Galaxies begin forming; Solar Systems begin to form within Nebulae. I believe Nebulae
are sometimes referred to as "Star Factories".
- 9 Billion
Our Solar System within the Milky Way begins forming.
* (The birth of our SUN, in the Protostar phase(a very young star))
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ASSIAH, The Manifested World. The Present.
The result of the Anabolic Processes of the three previous Worlds.
Inhabited by completely formed Galaxies and Star Systems.
* (This makes the Sun approx. 5 Billion years old)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* So technically, and also being sure to have all my terms straight.
The Sun existing in Atziluth, which is the Divine concept of the sun(and everything else)
Existed approx 14 Billion years ago(Pre Big Bang) - The plan before the execution!
* But the actual Physical Formation of the SUN began about 5 Billion years ago
Yetzirah and Assiah appear to overlap as there are completely formed Systems that
can exist in Yetzirah, as well as newly forming Systems in Assiah. Perhaps one thing
that could make more of a distinction betwen the two, is that Assiah could be thought of
as the "Arrow Of Time" moving forward into the future.
You could really spend all your time on this kind of thing, and it would probably make you
go insane faster than Practicing the Occult! I prefer to spend more time on Occult Practice,
or Contemplation Meditation. It's more rewarding, and more fun!
