This book is great for anyone with some knowledge of qabala as it alludes to things you might not pick up on or be able to expand on otherwise

The closest to telling the hows of the beginning of existence in words that can only touch the surface of the creation story

Interesting book almost like genetic coding dna code breaking

Also the author was a reputed rabbi so he had the knowledge of the torah of sinai to interpret the text good enough to not get lost in translation

In a note kaplan explainsthere is a commandment “there shall not be found among you… one who calculates times

In the talmud according to rabbi akiba this specifically applies to one who calculates auspicious times and a number of authorities accept this opinion as binding

This however only means that one should not make astrology a dominant influence in one’s daily life… when one is engaged in these mystical techniques this prohibition is not applicable

So astrology is a tool used in sefer yetzirah but never is prime directive
