Malkuth is the last Sephirah on the tree of life. In the symbolic book of the bible, God rested on the 7th day: the day corresponding to Malkuth. This Sephirah is the final stage of complete manifestion, where the energy emanating through all upper Sephiroth rest. This is the world of Assiah, the plane of action, which is the physical world. Malkuth is the world of the four elements and matter in its entirety. The four colors are symbolic of the four elements that can also be described as the four states of matter: Solid(Earth), Gas(Air), Liquid(Water), and Plasma(Fire). The forms of Yetzirah are manifested in action in Malkuth bringing all forms we see in nature.
Malkuth is associated with the soul in the power of self expression, the power to express ones thoughts and emotions towards others. The soul, in its meditation of Divinity, can only perceive and ascend to the higher Sephiroth through the “pane” and portal of Malkuth. “This is the gate to God, the righteous shall enter through it” (Pslams 118:20) (Gal Einai, 2014). Spirituality is about revealing non empirical phenomena and the Qabbalists feel and know the spiritual worlds while still in their physical body. Qabala is a certain practice of spirituality.
Its vices are inertia, avarice, and its virtue is discrimination. This is not bigotry behavior but discrimination in the sense of letting go. Sacrificing the lesser for the greater. The planet assigned to Malkuth is the Earth. All nature and Earth deities can be placed here.
The root chakra corresponds to this spehere. It is the Earth chakra for grounding and Malkuth is placed between the feet of the Divine man. The Qabalistic name for the Divine man is Adam Kadmon with the feet grounded in the Earth and head in the heavens.
