The Divine Act of Creation: Hevot Ritual

​The Divine Act of Creation

Aramaic Creation Spirituality

T​he first week of December I​ lead a retreat in Málaga, in the south of Spain where the Dragon energies are vibrant and pulsating, ​and I l​oved ris​ing early each morning t​o walk to the temple space before dawn. The land, embraced in the sacred stillness of ​the night, seemed to hum with anticipation, as if holding its breath for the first light. Wrapped in the warm shawl I had blessed as my prayer shawl for the retreat, I felt held, feeling a motherly embrace.

Before stepping out, I w​ould begin my morning with a cold shower, feeling a deep sense of awakening and renewal. I w​ould then anoint my body with myrrh, consecrating every part of me​,  preparing myself as a vessel for divine work. In those quiet moments, I felt the d​eep presence of the Rucha d’Koodsha, the Holy Spirit, reminding me that everything can be a prayer, a sacred offering. It was in this space of presence and magic that I walked to the temple, feeling the weight and wonder of the unseen.

Along the path, I ​would pause to gaze at the stars. Above me, ​I could see the Pleiades h​olding mysteries of ​Light creation and infinite possibilities. In their light, I felt Hevot, the sacred intention of the unseen, the divine alignment that births creation. The stars reminded me that we are both the birthers and the birthed, eternally guided by the Holy Spirit. I believe we are the Genesis itself, the first moment of creation when we stop and recognize our sacred role as co-creators with the Divine.

Later, as the group gathered in the temple, the energy of Hevot became palpable. Together, we entered the sacred rhythm of creation. Each breath, each chant, and each prayer became an expression of the divine union between the seen and the unseen. As the sun rose, its golden rays illuminating the temple, we bore witness to the eternal dance of light and shadow, spirit and form, reminding us of our own role in this divine interplay.

Hevot in Aramaic transcends simple translation. It is the sacred alignment, the unity of thought, will, and action that fuels creation. It is the living connection between the divine and the earthly, the energy that Yeshua and Mary Magdalene so powerfully embodied. They lived Hevot as a path of divine union, showing us how to align with the Rucha d’Koodsha and live as vessels of sacred purpose. Their lives teach us that every moment can be a consecration when we live with intention and devotion.

Living in Hevot invites us to step into our roles as co-creators with the divine. It transforms desire, intention, and action into sacred tools for manifesting our highest purpose. When we align with Hevot, we move from separation to connection, from chaos to harmony. In this state, our creations—whether relationships, projects, or spiritual growth—become expressions of divine love and unity.

In the Genesis, the Spirit of God (Rucha d’Koodsha) hovers over the waters, uniting the formless void with divine intention to bring forth light. This is Hevot—the sacred relationship between the seen and unseen, the infinite and the finite. Creation is not an act of separation but of sacred union, where opposites come together in love to manifest something new.

In our lives, we too are called to embody Hevot. We are co-creators with the divine, tasked with aligning our hearts and intentions to birth harmony, beauty, and sacred purpose into the world. When we live in Hevot, we become vessels for divine energy, creating from a place of love and connection.

In our own lives, Hevot invites us to pause, reflect, and align with the divine flow. It reminds us that through our thoughts, words, and actions, we are always co-creating. Whether we are blessing a shawl, anointing our bodies, or offering a simple prayer, we can choose to live in the sacred rhythm of creation. Mary Magdalene teaches us that Hevot is not just a mystical concept but a way of life—an embodiment of love, intention, and divine alignment.

Ritual for Sacred Union and Hevot: Aligning with Divine Creation

Preparation:
Find a quiet, sacred space where you can immerse yourself fully in this ritual. Light a candle to symbolize the eternal flame of divine union and place a journal nearby. If you have sacred oils or incense, anoint yourself or let their fragrance infuse the space, creating an atmosphere of reverence and intention.

1. Opening Breathwork for Sacred Union
Begin by closing your eyes and grounding yourself with deep, intentional breaths. Inhale deeply, visualizing the breath as divine inspiration pouring into you—a gift of life, light, and love. Exhale gently, offering this light back to the world as your creative expression. With each breath, feel the sacred dance of Hevot, the balance of receiving and giving, like waves that sustain creation. Allow this rhythm to awaken a sense of unity within you, merging your spirit with the infinite.

2. Visualization of Light
Once your breath has steadied, shift your focus inward. Envision the Holy Spirit—the Rucha d’Koodsha—hovering over the primordial waters of creation, filling the void with infinite light and divine intention. See yourself as both the vessel and the source of this light. You are the water, receiving divine inspiration, and you are the Spirit, offering light to the world. Breathe into this sacred duality, feeling the power of Hevot illuminating your entire being.

3. Journaling for Intention
Reflect and write about the areas of your life where you can bring more unity and sacred connection. Ask yourself:

  • How am I co-creating with divine energy in my daily life?
  • Where can I bring more love, balance, and intention into my actions?
    Allow your words to flow freely, knowing that this act of writing is a communion with the divine, a conscious act of creation.

4. Sacred Chanting of Hevot
Return to stillness, holding the word Hevot in your heart. Begin to chant it, allowing its vibrations to fill your body and the space around you. Let this chant guide you into the rhythm of creation itself. You can drum along if you wish.

5. Acting in Love
Conclude your ritual with a moment of commitment. Reflect on one small, intentional act of love or kindness you can perform today. This could be a kind word, a thoughtful gesture, or a creative offering infused with divine energy.

Closing:
Sit in quiet reflection, holding gratitude in your heart for this moment of connection. Whisper a final prayer or affirmation, such as:
“I am a vessel of divine creation, living in harmony with the sacred flow of giving and receiving. Through my actions, I honor the unity of love and light within me.”

Blow out the candle, sending your intentions out into the world, and carry the energy of this ritual into your day.

May we walk through our days with the awareness that we are Genesis, that in every moment we are birthing light into the world. May the Rucha d’Koodsha, the Holy Spirit,  guide us, and may our lives become a consecration of the sacred union between the seen and the unseen.
