Tiferet, as envisioned by Angela Raincatcher
For a primer on the Omer see “Week One: Chesed.” For the schedule of the Omer, see Chabad’s Omer Calendar.
The third week of the Omer focuses on Tifereth. This sephira is usually interpreted as Beauty or Compassion. So that means we’ve moved from Chesed (Loving Kindness) to Gevurah (Strength) to Tifereth (Beauty/Compassion). Tifereth is seen as a balancing force to Chesed and Gevurah.
Once again we look at each of the other seven “lower” sephirot through the lense of this sephira. We begin like every week, with Chesed (loving kindness).
What does Loving Kindness within Compassion mean in our lives and the world? What happens when you change the meaning of Tifereth to Beauty or Truth instead of Compassion?
The third week, which explores Tifereth (Beauty/Compassion), looks like this:
- Loving-kindness within Beauty/Compassion
- Strength within Beauty/Compassion
- Compassion (Beauty) within Beauty/Compassion
- Endurance within Beauty/Compassion
- Glory within Beauty/Compassion
- Connection Beauty/Compassion
- Majesty within Beauty/Compassion
