Klippoth/Qlipploth
from the hebrew literally means "shells" (klippa is the singular)
Klippoth are incomplete pseudo sefirot...."wanna be" kabbalisitic spheres.
WG Gray expressed Klippoth best for me I think
You have a tree of life....this can be seen as the body of God..so to speak
Now as above so below...or God is like man....he created us in his image etc. SO like man god must expell things..."he" must excrete. So Klippoth is the excretum..the waste...the feces of the divine!
We can thus think of Klippoth as the excrement of God..and much like a spiritual compost heap. Think about a compost heap. A compost heap is a place where the dead and semi dead are left to rot. If you know what guava is, ie bat excretum klippoth is like that.
Traditionally Klippoth is seen as the realm of demons. Often this place is called the tree of death or treee of night/darkness. This is the tree that satanists and "left hand practioners" adhere to. Of course Klippoth is also the realm of demons, and the Underworld. Or more accuratlyu the underworld is a part of klippoth. What is the underwolrd? This is hades, hel, anwynn, avalon, summerlands etc. the realm of the dead. Where "faries" live. In tradition Lillith is said to reside at the lowest emanation of klippoth. If you have ever been to the underworld you may know more of what I am discussing.
What does this mean to us as Gnostics? This is much like the Demi urge itself. In fact Shtn, satan, shit...are not a million miles away. Thus satan/the demi urge/klippoth are things we must excrete, remove. This is much liek the idea that archons can represent actual beings that the demi urge has sent to help him and to control mankind....AND/OR archons and klippoth /satan/the demi urge can bve seen as the self. The I, the ego.
Often pictured "below" the tree of life (and as merely an upside down tree joined at kether), a perhaps more accurate portrayal would be side by side....joined at da'ath..as da'ath can be experienced as life or death..but thats another story.
Klippoth (Hebrew, Jewish). Shells: used in the Kabbalah in several senses;
(1) evil spirits, demons;
(2) the shells of dead human beings, not the physical body, but the remnant of the personality after the spirit has departed;
(3) the Elementaries of some authors.
