A kabbalistic doctrine of the dark, reverse side of the Tree of Life. Each of the ten sephirot has a shadow-double — a qlipha (pl. qliphoth, Hebrew קְלִיפּוֹת, "shells"). An eleventh, Thaumiel, crowns it all.

Qliphoth are not "evil" in the everyday sense — they are force cut off from source: name without connection, passion without direction, will without responsibility. Working with them is not worship — it is recognition of one's own reverse structures.

A practitioner and researcher of the tradition, working with the material for more than a decade. The identity is not disclosed for reasons of tradition: work with the reverse side of the Tree has historically been transmitted anonymously, and attention should stay on the material, not the carrier.

This does not stop dialogue — every letter is answered by a person, not a bot.

The archive itself is entirely free. All articles, references, glossary, caravan of issues — open forever, no registration, no advertising.

Only services are paid: personal readings (natal, synastry, tarot spread) and pre-made grimoires in PDF. Full list on the services page.

No. The archive is not affiliated with any organisation. It does not recruit adepts, does not perform initiations "into an order", does not collect membership fees.

The initiation rite at the entry to the site is a symbolic gesture inside the project, not a joining of anything. You may skip it and still use the archive.

The eleven qliphoth correspond to eleven windows in the year, tied to zodiac signs and planetary rulers. From your birth date the qlipha whose archetype leads you from birth is selected.

This is not a verdict, not fate — it is a starting point: with which reverse force you have an innate resonance, through which it is easiest for you to enter work with the Tree.

No. The date is used only to compute the qlipha inside your browser and is then discarded. There is no record of it on our side.

Only the result is saved: qlipha name, its Hebrew spelling, zodiac sign. All of it lives in your browser (localStorage) and is erased by the ↻ button in the badge or through browser settings. Details in the privacy policy.

For the quick calculation, a Gregorian birth date in your local birth time is enough — the qlipha windows are wide enough that a few hours' difference does not shift the result.

For a precise astrological reading (the "Natal Chart of Qliphoth" service), birth time and place matter — those are entered separately in the order form and used only for that one chart.

The qlipha does not change on recalculation — the birth date does not change. But if you want to redo the rite or enter another person, press ↻ in the top-right corner — all data resets and the ritual is available again.

Nothing breaks "magically". A qlipha is a pointer, not a binding.

It happens. At the border of windows both qliphoth act: one as the main, the other as a "twilight neighbour". The base description does not reflect this, but the natal chart reading — does.

If understanding this duality matters to you, take the Natal Chart of Qliphoth: it examines planetary aspects and the exact position relative to the borders.

At release stage there are six offerings — three personal readings and three pre-made grimoires:

• Natal Chart of Qliphoth — the only document where your natal chart is read through the reverse Tree
• Tarot Spread — question → answer through qliphothic correspondences of the arcana
• Synastry — chart of two people and their qliphoth, how they rub against each other
• Qliphoth Grimoire — a ready grimoire (sigils, names, correspondences of all 11 qliphoth) in PDF
• Tables of Correspondences — a dense reference for the practitioner
• Lunar Report — calculation of qliphothic lunar windows for the year

Full descriptions — on the services page.

First: pass the initiation rite on the home page and learn your qlipha — it's free and gives an entry point.

Second: read the caravan articles (All issues) — written for beginners.

Third: if you want something concrete — start with the Tarot Spread (short, inexpensive, concrete answer) or with the Grimoire in PDF (for many months of reading).

Natal chart and synastry are for those who already know what they want from them.

Not necessarily. Your qlipha is your personal key, but services work differently: for example, the Tarot Spread answers a concrete question regardless of your qlipha.

The Natal Chart — yes, it examines specifically your qlipha and everything around it. Synastry — two qliphoth of two people. The Grimoire — is about all eleven, not one.

Some offerings (Pact, Sigil & Name, Penumbra, annual subscriptions) are deferred to the next stage — they require heavier delivery infrastructure than PDF-by-email. They will return when they are ready. Nothing is gone forever.

At the current stage only cryptocurrency is accepted (USDT, primarily TRC-20 or ERC-20).

Flow:

• Message us on Telegram @qliphoth_archive naming the service
• Receive a wallet address and exact amount
• Send the payment, share the TX hash
• After network confirmation (usually 1–5 minutes) work on the order begins

No. At this stage — crypto only. Reasons:

• Anonymity of author and client (card systems require name disclosure)
• International audience (one currency works everywhere)
• Independence from payment processors that could shut down a project of this profile

If you have never used crypto — write, we will suggest the simplest path for your country.

Crypto transfers are irreversible — a wrong transfer cannot be pulled back from the blockchain by us or by you. Therefore:

• Check the wallet address twice before sending
• Check the network (TRC-20 ≠ ERC-20 — these are different addresses)
• If in doubt — ask before sending, we'll answer

If you accidentally sent more than needed — the excess is refunded in the same way to the source wallet.

Yes, within 7 days of PDF delivery, if the material genuinely didn't suit you or didn't match the description. No interrogation, no "prove you didn't like it".

Refund is made in the same cryptocurrency, to the same wallet the payment came from, at the exchange rate at the moment of the refund. Details in the terms.

• Ready grimoires (Grimoire, Tables, Lunar Report) — within an hour after payment confirmation, usually instantly
• Tarot Spread — within 24 hours
• Natal Chart — 48–72 hours
• Synastry — 72 hours

Personal readings are often ready sooner, but the author has one set of hands, and quality outranks speed.

First — check the Spam folder and Promotions (Gmail often puts the first letter from a new sender there).

If nothing arrives within a day past the stated time — message us on Telegram @qliphoth_archive with the subject "PDF not received", state the service and the TX hash. We will resolve within 24 hours.

Yes, free. Write from the email you ordered with — we will re-send. The file is kept on our side.

At the current stage — PDF only. Physical printing (a bound edition, a limited-run Grimoire) is discussed for next year. If print matters to you — write, we'll take it into account.

No, that violates copyright. You bought the file for yourself. If your friend is also interested — let them order: it supports the project and their copy will come with support. Mass sharing of a PDF is grounds for refusing refunds and further services.

The caravan is the archive's internal series of issues. Each issue is a self-contained article: topic, examination, sources, diagram. Not a weekly schedule and not a "blog" — it comes out when it's ready and when there is something to say.

All issues are open, readable without subscription. Listing — on the all issues page.

At the end of every article there is a subscription form. You give your email — when a new issue comes out, a single letter arrives with a link. That's all. No advertising, no "special offers", no spam.

Another way — the Telegram channel @qliphoth_archive, where issues are mirrored and short notes appear between them.

Every letter has an "unsubscribe" link — one click, no questions. Or message us on Telegram @qliphoth_archive with the subject "erase me" — the email is removed within seven days, a confirmation comes back.

Honest answer: working with dark symbolism requires stability. For an adult in a normal state — this is work, not "danger". But:

• If you are in acute crisis, depression, a psychotic episode — put it aside. The material will not disappear, and an unstable state is not soil for work with the reverse
• If you are under 18 — this archive is not for you
• If you have a psychiatric diagnosis — discuss with your doctor first

We don't give medical advice; we honestly warn that the material is serious.

No. The archive is interpretive and contemplative material. No mandatory rituals, no blood, no night in the forest, no "worship" of anyone.

Qliphoth are structures of consciousness and their kabbalistic names. Working with them is work with the psyche, not "summoning an entity". What you do with the material yourself is up to you; the archive demands nothing.

If it disturbs rather than draws — don't enter. That is a normal response. The reverse side of the Tree is not for everyone, and this is neither a flaw nor a virtue, simply a different direction of work.

If it draws and disturbs at once — start with the free caravan articles. No commitments, no payments, just reading. If after three articles it feels lighter — you go on. If it feels worse — you leave without loss.

Core correspondences (names of qliphoth, sephira mappings, Hebrew spellings, planetary and zodiacal ties) are historical canon, going back to Isaac Luria, the Zohar, the Sifra di-Tzniuta, Crowley, Kenneth Grant, and other sources. List — on the sources page.

Where we give an authorial interpretation — it is marked. Where sigils or names are reconstruction (because the original hasn't survived), that is also marked. We do not present invention as tradition.

Yes, but the optimal experience is on desktop or tablet: some Tree diagrams, correspondence tables and chart readings are easier on a large screen. Everything is readable on a phone, but complex diagrams will need horizontal scrolling.

Refresh the page (F5, or pull-down on mobile). If that didn't help — open the archive in incognito mode and try again. If it still doesn't — write to the email, state the browser and which step it stuck on.

The rite can be skipped with the "skip" button in the bottom right of the overlay — the archive opens without a qlipha, and can still be used.

In the top-right corner — a badge with the ↻ symbol. Press it, confirm the reset — all data on your passage is deleted, the ritual becomes available again on the home page.

Means your system has no font with Hebrew glyphs. On most modern OS (Windows 10+, macOS, iOS, Android 8+) this is already installed by default. If you're on Linux — install a package like noto-fonts-hebrew.

Yes, an Atom feed for all caravan issues. Works in any RSS reader (Feedly, Inoreader, NetNewsWire, Miniflux, etc.).

A short quote — yes, with source attribution and a link to the specific page of the archive. A full article or a large fragment — only with permission. Write to the email; the usual answer is "yes" — if it isn't commercial resale.
