The Kabbalah of Oil Part 2. How to Reveal the Resources Hidden Within You and the Earth

Oil plays a pivotal role in today’s battles in the Persian Gulf—between the United States, Israel, and Iran. It is not merely a resource; it is the lifeblood of the modern world. Whoever controls its flow, especially through the Strait of Hormuz, touches every corner of the globe. It fuels economies, and in many ways, it fuels this very conflict. But the story does not end there. As we explored last week, the deeper dimension—the Kabbalah of Oil —reveals that beneath the visible battles lies a hidden one. A spiritual struggle, ancient and ongoing, that oil itself comes to embody. What appears as geopolitics is, at its core, a contest over deeper forces shaping our world. The story begins with Abraham and his children, Yishmael, Isaac, Esau and Jacob -- who were all born and bred in this Middle East region. It should therefore not come as a surprise that a disproportionate concentration of oil is hidden under the ground of this region -- reflecting the vast potential contained therein. The response to last week's discussion was powerful, and it calls for us to go further. In this second part of The Kabbalah of Oil , we will dig deeper into the spiritual root of oil; why it is so concentrated in that region, how it has shaped history for thousands of years, and what it means for us today, both globally and personally. Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson as we uncover not only the power beneath the earth, but the power within ourselves—the inner resources waiting to be unleashed. Because to understand this battle is to begin to understand how it can be transformed. And ultimately, how true and lasting peace can emerge—for that region, and for our world.
