Points & Lines: 1

Kabbalistic works frequently use geometric terms such as points and lines.

The basic understanding is that a point represents the essence of something as it is. It is unconnected and not relating to anything else. A point, visualized as a round circle - whose end reaches back around to its beginning - is  self-contained entity.

A line represents a connection between points. In Kabbalistic terms it would represent a relationship being developed between two concepts that had until now seemed unconnected and possibly in conflict.
