The second unification can interpret the first as being the route of possibility (8III). The second in terms of the first can be read as all the powers that stem from the end of unification, e.g. unification as the means to evolving of the separate, unification as the bringing of new potential\/opportunities, etc. Compare: 6 days of work combine to form all that is necessary, the 7th was the goal, but it was 6 which created the new space\/possibility\/entity\/unfolding.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">My interpretation is hard to prove now:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">6 is similar to the fire (<em>shin<\/em>) which is unified in its ashes (<em>aleph<\/em>), which is taught to be like earth #sacrifices. The reason it is twisted is that the linen is not fire, it is earth playing with earth to bring something new, and thus it is a case of purity arising from non-pure. The earth is like the second <em>hei<\/em> of the 4-letter name, and the fire (in case of sacrifices) is the first <em>hei<\/em>.

This is similar to Kave, which is a secondary-purpose which aims at discreteness. The word Tikva is a little more nuanced, not only because of all the 10&#8217;s spaces, but also the other curious parallels, e.g. 6I seeing 5I space for the 10II, or the way that the first 10III is (looking from top-down), presupposing being in space of 6I from the perspective of final 5I. Thus, for e.g. the 10II is not just the secondary goal of the restriction of having hope, but that in itself becomes part of the nature of the final discrete form (5I); or, the 6I unfolds from the 10II, which relates to the 6I always being inherent in the highest purpose, which must presume its own allowance (for otherwise any non-immediate highest-purpose would need to learn 6I, or else this is added externally circumstantially).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1442\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326-6136383115220539912259\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?fit=8609%2C417&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"8609,417\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?fit=720%2C35&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1442 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259-300x15.png?resize=300%2C15\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"15\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?resize=300%2C15&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?resize=768%2C37&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?resize=1024%2C50&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?resize=1920%2C93&amp;ssl=1 1920w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?resize=720%2C35&amp;ssl=1 720w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?resize=580%2C28&amp;ssl=1 580w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?resize=320%2C16&amp;ssl=1 320w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?w=1440&amp;ssl=1 1440w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thetravellerslastjourney.com\/shai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/kisspng-black-and-white-monochrome-grey-divider-5ab8b367372326.6136383115220539912259.png?w=2160&amp;ssl=1 2160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>{Part 2 &#8211; 3\/3\/2017}<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;4 worlds, circular, 5 boundaries, the boundaries are <em>Gevura<\/em> (<em>tchelet<\/em>).&#8221; Not clear.
