Some of the 22 Paths that connect the Sephiroth are represented by both the signs of the Zodiac and the seven "classical" planets.

The Ten Sephiroth
The Sephiroth are represented not so much by the planets themselves, but the spheres that contain them. In the classical system of Aristotle (384-322 BCE), the Earth was at the center of the Cosmos, and was made up of the four fundamental elements—air, earth, fire, and water. This is represented in Malkuth, the tenth and lowest emination on the Tree. The Earth was surrounded by concentric, spherical shells of aether. Seven spheres were the home of the planets. The eighth sphere was home to the "fixed stars" (which contains the Zodiac), and the outermost was the Primum Mobile or "Prime Mover", which gave motion to all the other spheres.
- 1 Kether—Sphere of the Primum Mobile (represented by Pluto)
- 2 Chokmah—Sphere of the Fixed Stars (represented by Neptune)
- 3 Binah—Sphere of Saturn
- 4 Chesed—Sphere of Jupiter
- 5 Geburah—Sphere of Mars
- 6 Tiphareth—Sphere of Sol
- 7 Netzach—Sphere of Venus
- 8 Hod—Sphere of Mercury
- 9 Yesod—Sphere of Luna
- 10 Malkuth—Sphere of the Elements (represented by Earth)
