Kabbalah4All Transliteration Guidelines

Please note that transliteration guidelines are different according to each culture and also within
each movement of Judaism. We have developed these guidelines for use with our transliterated
documents. They may or may not apply to transliterations put out by other movements including
the various organizations teaching Kabbalah.

a as in father
ai as in aisle
e as in red
ei as in eight
i as in pizza
o as in no
oy as in toy
u as in tune
ch as in Bach in German (strong sound from the throat)
g as in give
tz as in lots
’ typically adds an “EH” sound after a consonant, this is known as a Shva Na or pronounced
Shva as in the word “Sh’ma”.
- a dash is simply used to aid in pronounciation, usually if two like vowels follow each other,
as in the word “da-at.”
In Hebrew, the accent generally falls on the last syllable, however it sometimes falls somewhere
else in the word. In our transliteration, when the syllable falls somewhere else other than the last
syllable, that stressed syllable will be underlined. Example: Melech.

Hebrew Rules

The following are some of the Hebrew rules you may notice in our siddurim (connection books).

Kjl¤ n«¤ In Hebrew, the accent generally falls on the last syllable, however it sometimes falls
somewhere else in the word. Whenever a syllable other than the last is accented, a
“meteg” (the vertical line under the first letter) will appear.

lÇ̈k The “masoret” above the letter Chaf indicates that this is a Kamatz Katan, which is
pronounced as “o”; in this example the word is “kol.”

Egœ§nU¦
§i The “rafe” above a letter indicates it is a Shva Na. This example is pronounced
yism’chu.
Note that the rafe does not appear above the first letter of a word that has a Shva
as that is ALWAYS a Shva Na.

Please do not publish or distribute without permission.

ANA B’CHOACH
Considered by the Kabbalists to be the most powerful and mystical prayer of all; the
sequence of Hebrew letters is known as the 42-Letter Name of the Creator. The
importance of this prayer is not in the words themselves but in the first letter of each
word. The words only help us to make the sounds of each first letter. This prayer can
connect us to the energy of healing and before we say it, we should think of others that
need healing in order that we too may receive healing in our own lives.

Following the Ana B’Choach, we have a meditation known as Tikun HaNefesh, literally
“Correction of the Ego Self.” You may wish to use your right hand and place it over the
parts of your body as you look at the Divine Name (Tetragrammaton) in each box. The
numbers will guide through this meditation which is also used to realign the energy points
in our bodies. Some have referred to the Tikun HaNefesh as the Kabbalistic Chakra
System.

After you have finished the Tikun HaNefesh, you may look at the letters of the angel for
the new day. Keep in mind that Hebrew days begin at evening, so on Sunday night you
would look at the name of the angel for Monday.

MA-ARIV
The darkness of the first day differed from the darkness that preceded creation. Ma-ariv
also means mix and suggests that the Creator mixed light into the primordial darkness.
This blessing reminds us that darkness can be transformed by the tiniest spark of light.

THE SH’MA
The Sh'ma is an affirmation of faith. It both expresses our love for the Creator, and also
serves as an ode to the divinity of the soul. Kabbalah teaches that the Sh’ma is the
acknowledgement of unity and connects us to B’riyah, the World of Creation. It brings
the Creator’s Oneness into our consciousness and reminds us that we must extend
unconditional love to all.

The enlarged letters r and c form the word c¥r, which means witness. By saying the
Sh’ma, we bear witness to the Creator’s unity as we declare it to the world. The second
verse we say in a whisper because it is the prayer of the angels and we are not ordinarily
in a state to say it as they do.

The blessings that follow the Sh’ma express our love for the Creator. Each section
corresponds to one of the letters of the Divine Name.

It is important to say each word clearly and not to run words together.
We recite the first verse aloud while covering the eyes with the right hand.
