The Kabbalistic Correspondence

In this collection Powers is also correlated with a sephirah of the Tree of Life, here Netzach ("Victory"). Mapping the angelic choirs onto the ten sephiroth of Kabbalah is not part of the original Dionysian scheme; it is a later development of Christian Kabbalah, given its now-familiar form by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, which paired each sephirah with a divine name, an archangel and an angelic choir. The correspondence is presented here as a documented feature of that esoteric system, distinct from the Christian theology of Pseudo-Dionysius and from the Jewish sources of the Tree of Life, and not as the doctrine of any single tradition.

This collection's placement of Powers at Netzach, Victory, sits two spheres below where the Agrippa-attributed sequential table puts it, at Geburah, Severity, the same shift that runs consistently through this set of six once Chaioth ha-Qadesh occupies Kether. The Golden Dawn's Hebrew table gives Netzach to a host it calls Elohim, and reserves Geburah, where Agrippa's Powers stood, for its own choir of Seraphim, already noted elsewhere in this collection as the Golden Dawn's one retained Dionysian name among an otherwise entirely Hebrew set of ten.
