Divine SUN

Humanity has always searched for the origin of consciousness and what lies beneath existence. In many cultures, creation is not described merely as a physical event, but as an emotional and spiritual movement — the awakening of a feeling so profound that it generated life itself. In both Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism) and Yoruba cosmology, creation begins with a spiritual force of love expressed as energy, not mere belief or myth. These two systems, though separated by geography and history, point toward the same truth:

The first spirit was unconditional love.

And because we were created from that love, we carry that essence in us.

Emotions as Spirits: The Energy of Being.

In many esoteric traditions, emotions are not simply chemical reactions. They are vibrational entities, often called spirits, forces, or energies. When you feel anger, joy, sorrow or desire, you are not just reacting to life — you are interacting with a spiritual current.

In Yoruba Thought:

Every emotion corresponds to an Òrìṣà, which is not a “god” but a conscious archetypal energy:

Ọbatala represents peace, clarity, and divine intention.

Oshun expresses love, sweetness, attraction, and emotional flow.

Shango represents passion, will, and the force behind choice and consequence.


In this understanding:

> Emotion is spirit. Spirit is motion. And motion is creation.



In Kabbalah:

Emotions are mapped as Sefirot— emanations or expressions of the Divine:

Chesed (חסד) = Loving-kindness, expansion, generosity.

Gevurah (גבורה) = Discipline, intensity, boundary.

Tiferet (תפארת) = Harmony, beauty, balance.


Thus:

> The Divine experiences creation emotionally, and we mirror those emotional currents.



Our emotions are not separate from God. They are the pathways through which God is felt in us.

The First Emotion: Chesed and Oshun as the Origin of Creation

Both systems agree that the first movement of the Divine was love.

Kabbalah: Chesed as the First Outpouring

Before anything existed, there was only the Infinite Source (Ein Sof) — pure consciousness without form. Kabbalah teaches that the first movement of this infinite awareness was Chesed: limitless, unconditional love expanding outward.

This love was the impulse to create:

> “I am whole, therefore let Me share My wholeness.”



Creation was not born from need, emptiness, or loneliness. It was born from overflowing love.

Yoruba Cosmology: Oshun as the Breath of Creation

In Yoruba creation stories, when the male energies tried to create the world alone, life was dry, hostile, and unbalanced. It was only when Oshun — the spirit of love, sweetness, fertility, and emotional flow — entered creation that life could take form.

Without Oshun’s love, there is no life, no growth, no humanity.

Oshun is the force of attraction — the reason cells bind, relationships form, and consciousness recognizes itself.

Thus:

> Creation is love in motion.

“Made in the Image of Love”

If the first emotion that moved through the universe was unconditional love, and we are made in the image of the Divine, then:

Our original nature is love

Our consciousness is structured around connection

What we seek in life is to return to our source frequency


We suffer when we forget who we are.

Trauma does not make us “broken.”
It simply disconnects us from our original energetic identity.

Healing, therefore, is not the invention of a new self.
It is the remembering of the self that was always there:

> The self made of love.

The Message Across Traditions

Tradition First Movement of Creation Meaning

Kabbalah Chesed Divine Love expands to create existence
Yoruba Oshun Love and emotional flow give life its vitality
Christian Mysticism Agape Unconditional love animates the soul
Sufism (Islamic Mysticism) Hubb God loves creation before it exists


All point to the same origin: Love is the first and final truth.

Conclusion

To say “Spirits are emotions” is to recognize that we live in a universe shaped not by accident, but by intentional spiritual resonance.
To say “The first emotion was unconditional love” is to understand that existence itself is an act of love.
And to say “We are made in that image” is to reclaim our birthright:

We are not separate from the divine.
We are expressions of its love.

When we return to love — in how we see ourselves, each other, and the world — we return to our origin frequency, the vibration that holds galaxies together:

Unconditional love.
