5-2b Twelve Diagonal Lines with the Hebrew Letters

Close your eyes and breathe out.

You are holding a rod or twig or feather—
any kind of implement for sketching lines in the air. Form an intention to protect or bless someone or something within a sacred space.

You are about to sketch a cube of energy (an illustration appears on the following page).

Facing east, draw a letter heh ה at eye level to your left. This creates a vertical line, like a column.
Put your intention into this line as you draw it.

Sketch vav ו at eye level to your right.
This forms another vertical line, parallel to the first.

Write a zayin ז above you
and a chet ח near the ground.
These create horizontal lines that join with the vertical ones to complete one face of a cube that faces east.

Continue to hold your intention.

Now, turning to your left (north), sketch yud י to your left. This forms a new vertical line.

Sketch a lamed ל  above you
and a tet ט  near the ground.
These create horizontal lines that join with the vertical ones so that you now have a second north-facing side of the cube.

Continue to hold your intention.

Turn left once again so you are facing west. Draw a samech ס to your left.
This creates a vertical line, like a column.

Sketch a nun נ near the ground
and an ayin ע higher up.
These create horizontal lines that join with the vertical ones so that you now have a third west-facing side of the cube.

Continue to hold your intention.

Turn left once more to face south.
Draw a tzadi צ close to the ground
and a kuf ק higher up.
These create horizontal lines that join with the vertical ones so that you now have the southern face,
finishing the entire cube.

When the cube is complete,
see that its lines glow with your intention.

From your place within the cube,
feel the intention you have drawn into its lines. How do you feel or appear different within this space?

Now, bring into the cube,
simply by intending to do so, anyone or anything
you want this intention to reach.
Feel the impact of the cube you have drawn on this person or entity.

Breathe out and open your eyes.
