Merkaba activation refers to a spiritual practice or meditation technique aimed at aligning and activating the merkaba, a concept originating from ancient Jewish mysticism, particularly the Kabbalah. The term merkaba (מֶרְכָּבָה) translates to "chariot" in Hebrew, often symbolizing a spiritual vehicle or a divine chariot, as described in the biblical Book of Ezekiel. The practice involves visualizing and manipulating energy fields or light patterns to create a spinning, geometric form around the body, intended to facilitate spiritual ascension, heightened consciousness, or connection with higher dimensions. In various New Age and esoteric traditions, the merkaba is considered a tool for personal transformation and enlightenment. Translations of "merkaba" in other languages include merkabah in English, merkabah in Spanish, and merkaba in French. The activation process often involves specific breathing techniques, mantras, and visualization exercises to harness and direct spiritual energy.
