A Portable Portal to Wisdom
I recently acquired the Pinchas Pocket Size Zohar I Lavender Special Edition, and it's quickly become a cherished item. As someone interested in spiritual texts and practices, I was drawn to this particular edition, and it offers a unique way to engage with the Zohar.First off, the aesthetics are delightful. This Zohar is super cute and incredibly small, making it truly pocket-sized. The lavender color of the cover is absolutely lovely – it's a soft, calming shade that makes the book feel special. Its compact size means it's incredibly easy to take with you anywhere; I can just throw it in my purse, and it adds no noticeable weight or bulk. This portability is a huge advantage for someone who likes to carry spiritual texts for moments of reflection throughout the day.Now, a very important note for anyone considering this edition: the text is, understandably, very small. Given its pocket size, this is to be expected, but if you don't have excellent near-sight vision, you'll definitely want to be aware of this. Reading extended passages might be a challenge without magnification.This particular edition contains just one book of the Zohar, "Pinchas." I appreciate this focus, especially as Michael Berg, a prominent figure in Kabbalistic teachings, suggests that Pinchas is a particularly good section for meditation and reflection. Having just this one volume makes it less daunting than a multi-volume set and allows for a deeper dive into a specific part of the Zohar's wisdom.For those new to Aramaic or Kabbalistic study, the beginning of the book is incredibly helpful. It includes explanations in both English and Spanish on how to use the Zohar. This guidance is invaluable, especially since, if you don't know Aramaic, the practice often involves simply looking at the letters and meditating on their form and energy rather than literal translation. This introductory section sets the stage perfectly for that kind of engagement.Overall, this Pinchas Pocket Size Zohar is a beautiful and practical tool for spiritual practice. Its charming size and color make it a joy to carry, and while the small text requires good vision, its portability and the focused content on "Pinchas" make it ideal for meditation and reflection on the go. It's a wonderful way to connect with the ancient wisdom of the Zohar.

Book Review and summary of the Zohar
📘 The Zohar Special Pocket-Sized Edition (Lavender) — Book Review & SummaryThe Zohar is a mystical commentary on the Torah (the first five books of the Bible), seen in Kabbalah as revealing the hidden, spiritual dimensions of reality. This pocket-sized lavender edition is not a full translation or commentary but rather a spiritual tool intended for daily connection, meditation, and protection.🔮 Key Themes:• Divine Structure: The Zohar describes how the universe is structured by divine energies called the Sefirot, which connect the physical and spiritual realms.• The Soul’s Journey: The text explores the purpose of life, reincarnation, and the soul’s path to reunite with the Divine.• Hidden Meanings in the Torah: It uncovers symbolic and mystical interpretations of the Bible’s stories and laws.• Light and Darkness: Emphasizes the constant struggle between ego (darkness) and sharing (light), and how one can draw spiritual Light into their life.Purpose of the Pocket Edition:• Spiritual Tool: Even if one doesn’t understand Aramaic, simply carrying or scanning the text is believed by some to draw positive spiritual energy.• Protection: Often used as an amulet for spiritual and physical protection.• Meditation Aid: Many meditate with it to connect to higher consciousness and divine energy.🟣 Why Lavender?• The lavender cover is symbolic—it represents peace, healing, and spiritual purity, reinforcing the intention of the book as a calming, sacred object.🧘 Who It’s For:• Seekers of spiritual insight.• Followers of Kabbalah.• Anyone looking for a portable source of spiritual connection and inspiration, regardless of religious background.I myself really enjoyed learning about the Kabbah I am catholic but I will be using these spiritual mind practices in my every day life and i love to learn of other religions!

Healing mystical text in Aramaic for use as a sacred object. Intro (only) in English & Spanish.
This pocket edition of the healing section of the Zohar is in Aramaic and is not just aimed for the Jewish people. Aramaic is the language which Jesus used in daily life so it can be a very appropriate text even for a Christian to carry in a pocket or keep on a nightstand. The introduction is in both English and Spanish. The rest of the text uses the Hebrew alphabet, but is in the Aramaic language. Apparently, even looking at the words without any comprehension, can be beneficial for meditation and healing. I am quite pleased to have such a special pocket edition in Aramaic. I would like to also find a full-sized Zohar in English as the Introduction has very much piqued my interest and I am interested in learning much more about it and the Kabbalah. For those who have an interest and appreciation for such mysticism, I would very highly recommend this well made, well printed little book with an excellent introduction.

Most of it is in Hebrew
Fascinating little book, but be warned that the bulk of it is in Hebrew. There's a section in the beginning that is in English, with some very interesting prayers for healing. This definitely isn't for everyone, but offers a little glimpse into the Kabala
