The twelve tribes of Israel are not just names in an ancient lineage — they are symbolic faculties of mind, the inner Elohim or "judges and powers" named God that shape your self-perception. Each tribe, through its Hebrew meaning, represents a distinct mental or emotional quality contributing to the creative process within.
Later, these tribes find their echo in the twelve disciples of Jesus. This shift from tribes to disciples is not simply a historical or generational change — it is a psychological evolution: a movement from dispersed, unconscious potentials to consciously named and directed powers supporting the assumption. The lineage of Christ shows the names of the psychological states passed through.
This narrative traces the journey through the Law of Assumption, revealing how the inner Elohim — your many mental states — must be harmonised and consciously commanded to create your desired world. What you inwardly accept as true is precisely what your outer world reflects.
The Births of Consciousness: From Promise to Dominion
Abraham cleaved to faith, and the promise was born.
Isaac cleaved to assurance, and joy in the unseen was born.
Jacob cleaved to persistence, and Israel — he who rules as God was born.
From Israel arise the children of development — each a state awakened within:
Reuben cleaved to sight, and awareness was born.
Simeon cleaved to hearing, and understanding was born.
Levi cleaved to alignment, and union with the Holy was born.
Judah cleaved to praise, and dominion was born.
Dan cleaved to judgement, and discernment was born.
Naphtali cleaved to release, and good news was born.
Gad cleaved to victory, and overcoming was born.
Asher cleaved to blessing, and joy was born.
Issachar cleaved to devotion, and reward was born.
Zebulun cleaved to dwelling, and harbour was born.
Joseph cleaved to imagination, and fruitfulness was born.
Benjamin cleaved to union, and the beloved son was born.
Each name carries its Hebrew meaning — a faculty of mind or a state of consciousness brought to life through the Law of Assumption. The journey flows from the faith of Abraham to the beloved son Benjamin, a complete evolution of inner faculties, culminating in the conscious embodiment - Elohim — of all creative judgement, rulership and potential.
Conclusion: A Symbolic Evolution
The twelve tribes symbolise faculties. The disciples embody functions. One prepares, the other performs. This is the journey from scattered identity to spiritual embodiment—a twelvefold path that begins in the subconscious and ends in full creative authority.
Twelve tribes. Twelve disciples. One transformed mind.
