	Nearly every scholar of the Kabbalah has created their own system of correspondences to link various esoteric concepts into the schema of the sefirot and qlippoth. Unfortunately, correspondences do not always agree with one another and are sometimes in complete opposition, with different authors disagreeing on which, color, [[Zodiac]] sign, [[chakra]], or unique gemstone should correspond to a certain sefirot. Given this turbulent history, it becomes exceedingly difficult to create a chart of correspondences which finds approval across all [[ritual magic\|magical]] traditions and all authors.

	'''Kabbalah''' (from Hebrew קַבָּלָה (qabalah) 'reception, accounting') is a Western esoteric tradition involving mysticism and the [[occult]]. It is the underlying philosophy and framework for magical societies such as the [[Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn\|Golden Dawn]], [[Thelema\|Thelemic orders]], mystical-religious societies such as the Builders of the Adytum and the Fellowship of the Rosy Cross, and is a precursor to the [[paganism\|Neopagan]], [[Wicca]]n and [[New Age]] movements.

	When read by later generations of Kabbalists, the Torah's description of the creation in the Book of Genesis reveals mysteries about [[Yahweh\|God]] himself. The [[Bible]] provides ample additional material for mythic and mystical speculation. The [[prophet]] Ezekiel's visions in particular attracted much mystical speculation, as did Isaiah's Temple vision. Other mystical events include Jacob's vision of the ladder to [[heaven]], and Moses' encounters with the Burning bush and God on Mount Sinai.

	Traditionalist Judaic views of Kabbalah's origins view it as an original development from within the Jewish religion, perhaps expressed through syncretic terminology from Medieval Jewish Neoplatonism. Contemporary academics of Jewish mysticism have reassessed Gershom Scholem's theory that the new doctrine of Medieval Kabbalah assimilated an earlier Jewish version of Gnosticism; Moshe Idel instead has posited a historical continuity of development from early Jewish mysticism.

	In contrast, Hermeticists have taken different views of Qabalah's origins. Some authors see the origins of Qabalah not in Semitic/Jewish mysticism or ancient Egyptian [[Gnosticism]], but in a western tradition originating in classical Greece with Indo-European cultural roots, later adopted by Jewish mystics. According to this view, "Hermetic Qabalah" would be the original Qabalah, even though the word itself is Judaic Hebrew, over the Christian Cabalah or the Jewish Kabbalah.
