It's not what I'm drawn to, but it's certainly there. I figured someone would pipe in with the Asherah aspect! It’s not what I’m drawn to, but it’s certainly there.

I sincerely believe Eitz Chayim referred to her in earlier times, too. Actually, Dotan I approach both that Psalms quote and Tu B’shevat with Asherah and her Tree aspect.

("Happy is the man that findeth wisdom... She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her"). I feel that Tu B'Shvat is connected to the Green Man aspect of god. Maybe the feminine side of Tu B'Shvat can be manifested as the Mother Land of Israel. That sentence in Proverbs reffers to the wisdom, as I understand.

I suggest the feminine face is appropriate in honor of the tree of life -- which is feminine language at least. If "she is a tree of life..." then we should honor HER on Tu B'Shevat. That's my reasoning. Dotan,

First of, you should write: עץ חיים היא למחזיקים בה with א in the end of "hi" & י in Mahazikim. Secondly, you wrote that we should pray to "the most appropriate facet for the occasion" of Elohim. Why do you suggest the feminine face is the most appropriate to Tu B'Shvat? Shabat Shalom, Carly.

with א in the end of “hi” & י in Mahazikim.

Secondly, you wrote that we should pray to “the most appropriate facet for the occasion” of Elohim.
Why do you suggest the feminine face is the most appropriate to Tu B’Shvat?
