In the second stage we meet for the first time the principle of Yesod, the foundation. This might be considered as a first exploratory meeting, for the complete foundation is that of a rounded and integrated personality - a work which never ceases in life, however far we progress. The stages of personality are the first ten stages along the Way. When we have returned to Yesod a second time via stage nine, and with our feet firmly on this foundation, we may, if we are ready, take the path of the wheel in stage ten in an attempt to lift our entire level of being from personality, based on the Yesod foundation, to Self, which centres on Tiphareth.

This step has been described by one school as a change in our ‘centre of gravity.’
In stage two, however, we touch the principle upon which personality is based as an apparently unknown and very powerful force in our lives - which it is. In speaking of the sign Cancer in stage one, we said that it was ruled by the moon. From the point of viewexpressed here, we are saying that in Yesod lies the controlling power which is itselfthe root cause of tenacity and the reflective qualities we need. In astrology, the element of water is assigned to Cancer, and it may be said that the foundation of human personality is of a watery, fluid nature; reflective, as water at night may show the reflection of the moon in the sky, and as the moon itself reflects the light of the sun.

This illustrates very clearly an aspect of the Teaching, that the main function of personality is its capacity accurately to reflect the light of Self from Tiphareth, to which latter Sephira Kabbalah attributes the sun. At this point it is appropriate to say something of what are called the chakras in the human body, and of the subtle body of refined matter commonly referred to in occult literature as the etheric body of the magician, or etheric double. It is called a double because, in appearance when seen apart from its denser, more material counterpart - the “shell” we have already spoken of - it is a whitish replica of the physical body with which we are familiar.

This etheric body is referred to Yesod, and it is this body which separates from the shell of the physical in certain kinds of out of the body experiences, and at physical death. These experiences are commonly called astral projection, but “astral” projection and etheric projection are not the same thing. In etheric projection, consciousness is transferred to this “Foundation” body upon which the physical is molded, and is able to move around in the usual surroundings of the everyday world, which appears exactly as we see it in the normal waking state, except that we may notice a kind of white “mist” pervading everything, called by some the “astral light.” This is a term which has had its meaning blurred from too much usage by too many people with not enough understanding or experience.

In “astral” projection, the contents, or rather particular aspects of some contents of the psyche, are capable of being projected onto their own plane, which may be an inner, subjective one or an outer objective level one step removed from the etheric conditions mentioned above. It is on this Yetziratic or astral level that the so-called angels and demons, etc. of so-called ‘magical’ operations are encountered, and it need hardly be said that such experiences are of the inner subjective variety, and in consequence not reliable as evidence of anything except perhaps the state of mind of the person experiencing the phenomena. Such experience properly belongs to psychology - but psychology is itself an important study within the Teaching. On one scale Yesod is seen as the lowest Sephira in the world of Yetzirah, and it is important to realise that in Yetzirah the products of fantasy have as much apparent reality as the record of material events held in the memory. Behind this simple fact lie the roots of some psychological or psychic disorders.
