The principal is the head master of a school and the three principals of Kabbalah which form the governing body from which all have emanated are EHEIEH, JEHOVAH, ELOHIM.  These three principals corresponds to the three spheres of the tree of life which are Kether at the top, with the God name EHEIEH, Chokmah as the second sphere with the God Name JEHOVAH, and Binah as the third sphere whose God Name is Elohim.

These three principals are the sources whose intertwined form is the manifestation of both matter and living beings visible and invisible.  The upper triangle of the hexagram corresponds to MInd which is Eheieh, Soul which is Jehovah, and Spirit Body which corresponds to Elohim.

In the physical world Eheieh is AIR as gases such as Oxygen, hygdrogen, Carbon, etc.  Jehovah is fire or light as seen as the sun.  Elohim is water and earth.  These three principals exists independently but always intertwined but one of the three is the outer form that dominates.  Eheieh  which corresponds to air, manifests as Clouds.  Jehovah, whose name is also spelled as YAHWEH, manifests as FIRE. ELOHIM whose body corresponds to water and earth manifests as any physical thing in nature such as human beings, or animals or spirits.

There are hence beings of clouds that have their source in Eheieh, there are beings of Fire that have their source in Jehovah, and there are beings that are Spirits, human being and animals that have their source in the Elohim. The physical earth in general and all solid forms of matter come under the dominion of the Elohim whose base number is three, whose symbol is the triangle and another triangle in the physical world united to form a hexagram.

All of nature is the Elohim, and the living beings are what become Elohims.  The beings in Jehovah as fire and those in Eheieh as clouds are what was seen by Moses during the crossing of the red sea as a pillar of fire and a pillar of cloud.

HOW TO MAKE THE KABBALISTIC SIGN OF THE CROSS.

Kabbalah has the base number of three, which is the number of the Elohim, whose symbol is the hexagram of two triangles.  To make the sign of the cross it is the symbol of the triangle that is made in the name of the three principals.

Touch the forehead and say, IN THE NAME EHEIEH

Touch the right shoulder and say, JEHOVAH

Touch the left shoulder and say, ELOHIM

AMEN.

It is from the names of the three principals that the rest of the names of God were derived and spread into the spheres of the tree of life.  The name YAHWEH, is spelled YOD HE VAU HE, is from the name JEHOVAH which is also spelled YOD HE VAU HE.  The name YAH is from the first two letters of Yod He, from Jehovah.  The name Eloah, which is spelled ALEPH LAMED HE, is from the first three letterS of the name ELOHIM, which is spelled ALEPH LAMED HE YOD MEM.  The name Elohi is from the first four letters of the name ELOHIM.

The muslims know God as ALLAH, which is spelled in Arabic as ALEPH, LAMED, HE.  this is the first three letters of the name ELOHIM.  The two letters AH, in YAH, are the first two letters from EHIEH, which is spelled ALEPH HE YOD HE. The word Shaddai, simply means Mighty, and EL which means God is the first two letters of the word Elohim and hence EL SHADDAI, is GOD ALMIGHTY.

As we can see all the names and powers have their root in the three princpals of EHEIEH, JEHOVAH, ELOHIM.  Eheieh translates as I AM. Jehovah translates as LORD. ELOHIM translates as GODS. Put it together and we have I AM THE LORD OF THE GODS.

The body of God as the Elohim is all of nature that is what we study in science, but there are two additional elements present which is mind and soul. The trinity above is MIND, SOUL, SPIRIT, the trinity below is AIR, FIRE, WATER/EARTH these intertwine to form the six parts of the triangle (hexagram) of a physical living being.

Of the three principals it is the ELOHIM that created the physical body of all things whereas JEHOVAH or YAHWEH created the sun and stars. EHEIEH is the mastermind of all. Kabbalah is both the BODY and SOUL of God, which includes the ELOHIM as the BODY and Jehovah as the soul.

From Jehovah we have wisdom and from the Elohim we have understanding. You may read further on the Elohim formula of creation in KABBALAH SERIES ONE.  Human beings and angels and all the spirits make up the branch of the ELOHIM.
