The connection between zodiac symbols and a menorah stems from Jewish mysticism, particularly in the Kabbalistic tradition, where both are seen as symbolic representations of the divine order in creation. The twelve zodiac signs correspond to the twelve tribes of Israel. Each tribe is thought to have unique characteristics that align with a zodiac sign. These twelve signs are seen as part of God’s influence over the universe. The menorah has seven branches, often linked to creation (seven days of the week) and divine wisdom. In mystical interpretations, the menorah’s seven branches can symbolize the visible planets, which were historically associated with the zodiac and cosmic order. Together, the seven branches and twelve zodiac signs suggest the interplay between divine and cosmic forces. The menorah represents spiritual light and enlightenment. The zodiac, in mystical contexts, reflects the divine order and structure of the cosmos. Jewish mysticism often blends these concepts, using symbols like the menorah and zodiac to describe God’s plan for the world.
