The Tree of Life is a diagram at the center of Kabbalah, made up of ten interconnected points, called sefirot, each representing a different divine attribute or aspect of existence, connected by a series of paths. It's used as a map for understanding the relationship between the physical world and the divine, moving from more earthly, grounded qualities at the bottom to more spiritual, transcendent ones at the top.

Some tarot systems map the 22 Major Arcana cards onto the paths of the Tree of Life, drawing a direct connection between Kabbalah and tarot symbolism, even though the two traditions developed separately.
