Air Candles Directions Head White Zeir Anpin

181. We have learned that when it was the wish of the white head, THE SKULL OF ARICH ANPIN, to glorify its glory, it formed and prepared and produced from the hard candle a spark which went up and spread into 370 directions. That spark is constant and pure air begins to be discharged and roll forth. It blew at it, so it was restored. A strong skull was released and spread to four directions.

181. תָּאנָא, כַּד סָלִיק בִּרְעוּתָא דְּרֵישָׁא חִוָּורָא, לְמֶעְבַּד יְקָרָא לִיקָרֵיהּ, תַּקִּין וְזַמִּין וְאַפִּיק מִבּוּצִינָא דְּקַרְדִּינוּתָא, חַד נִיצוֹצָא, וְסָלִיק וְאִתְפָּשַּׁט לִתְלַת מְאָה וְשַׁבְעִין עִיבָר. וְנִיצוֹצָא קָאֵים, וְשָׁארִי נָפִיק אֲוִירָא דַּכְיָא וּמִתְגַּלְגְּלָא, נָשַׁב בֵּיהּ אִתְתָּקַּן. וְנָפִיק חַד גּוּלְגַלְתָּא תַּקִּיפָא, וְאִתְפָּשַּׁט לְאַרְבַּע סִטְרִין.

182. Within fine pure air, THAT IS IN THE SKULL, the spark was sucked, and became part of it. HE ASKS: Could you imagine that it became part of it? HE REPLIES: It only means that it was hidden in it. Therefore, this skull OF ZEIR ANPIN was spread to its sides and this air WITHIN IT, is the most hidden from Atik Yomin (Eng. 'Ancient in Days'), with the spirit that it stored.

182. וּבְהַאי אֲוִירָא דַּכְיָא, אִשְׁתְּאִיב נִיצוֹצָא וְאִתְאֲחָד, וְאִתְכְּלִיל בֵּיהּ. בֵּיהּ ס"ד. אֶלָּא אִתְטָמַר בֵּיהּ. וּבְגִין כַּךְ, הַאי גּוּלְגַּלְתָּא אִתְפָּשַׁט בְּסִטְרוֹי, וְהַאי אֲוִירָא הוּא טָמִיר דִּטְמִירִין דְּעַתִּיק יוֹמִין, בְּרוּחָא דְּגָנִיז.
