The centers are arranged in three columns.
The left column is called the Pillar of Severity.

This represents the female side of man and contains three sephira:
Binah (Understanding), Geburah (Severity) and Hod (Splendor).

The right column is called the Pillar of Mercy.

This represents the male side of man and also contains three sephira:
Chokmah (Wisdom), Chesed (Mercy) and Netzach (Victory).

The middle pillar is called the Pillar of Equilibrium.
It represents the balance between the male and female pillars.
It contains four sephira:
Kether (Crown), Tiphareth (Beauty), Yesod (Foundation) and Malkuth (Kingdom).
