Hod is the Eighth Sephiroth in the kabalistic Tree of Life.

Other names: The Architecture of Truth

The Eighth Path is called the Absolute or Perfect Intelligence because it is the mean of the Primordial, which has no root by which it can cleave or rest, save in the hidden places of Gedulah, from which emanates its proper essence.
