Netzach is the seventh Sephirah corresponding to the forth day of creation. Netzach is a Sephirah of polarity like Chokmah, Binah, Chesed, and Geburah. This is force on a lower arch and this stage is where the light of Tipareth is broken up as a prism into many rayed manifestations ,but not fully individualized. So then, we really have forces not just force. The two Sephiroth Netzach and Hod are two levels of concrete force into form. In this level we are in a more illusionary projection of the higher states. This is the world of Yetzirah: Netzach is the male dynamic impulse, the bringer of formation; Yetzirah in its whole is the blueprint formation of what we see in the physical. The Astral is Spirit on a lower arch as with Matter being Astral on a lower arch. In the kabbalistic world of Yetzirah everything is thought forms.
In the microcosm, Netzach is our instincts and the emotions that give rise too. It represents the instinctive, emotional side of human nature. This is the lower Ruach, the basic functions of the psyche. It is also the desire in Ruach. The basic desires we would have and the emotional motivations of it. It is also about being attracted towards others and identifying with others: relationships in all forms.
Netzach’s virtues are unselfishness and vices are selfish love and lust. Its planet in the physical is Venus and it makes sense, because astrologically Venus is the planet of love, art, desire, emotion, friendships, and more. In mythology Venus is the Roman Goddess of love with the Greek name of Aphrodite. Your Venus describes what you love, how you love, and whom you love.
