While reading a presentation BB will be giving, a spark of revelation shocked me -- it was just like being zapped.  What I was reading was using some quite beautiful writing about "claiming yourself but not owning yourself."  She wrote that you do not own yourself -- not even your sense of I . . . of being a self . . . don't reduce yourself to a thing [a good thing nor a bad thing].  I realized (recognized) something about myself in that moment  . . . something that had changed and I'd almost missed . . . that I no longer was trying to become something or someone else (an improved version?) . . . I somehow had given that struggle up.  I realized in that moment that I truly only want to be who/what I already am.  Not what/who I think I am . . . but who/what I truly am!

WEEK 6 YESOD
Day 37, Gevurah within Yesod


Gevurah (strength, judgement, justice, boundaries, restraint)

Yesod (foundation, connection)

Sitting here within the 37th Gate, I'm wondering how this day will unfold.  There's an urge within me to get my website back up -- it's been down (disconnected) for probably a week now.  My website has been sort of like a foundation for my business for 15 years or more, and, for some reason, I've been able to be in the space of letting it be down.

Here's something interesting . . . my websites went down during the week of Hod -- the last 5 days of Hod.  And during that time, I did NOT do this practice, Counting the Omer.  It was not in my consciousness to do the practice.  I totally forgot about doing it for 5 days.  It reminds me a little of being in exile in the desert like the Israelites . . . and this Omer practice is about that.

WEEK 6 YESOD
Day 36, Hesed within Yesod


Hesed (lovingkindness, ever-flow, no boundaries, no restraint, unconditional giving)

Yesod (foundation, connection)

Entering this 36th Gate of Consciousness, the beginning of my week-long exploration within Yesod I've connected with two very close friends from my past.  BB lives in Montana now; we knew each other when we both lived in Northern Virginia.  She was my first Kabbalistic Healer and my Kabbalah teacher.  She is now the Director of the healing school that I went to for four years.  MB lives in Florida; we knew each other while we were both attending the healing school just mentioned.  Oddly, we did not get close to each other until after we left the school.

In our conversation, BB mentioned that she was needing to let go of a huge number of clients because the school was taking up so much of her time.  We discussed the potential of my taking on a good number of those clients.  If this increase in number of clients manifest for me, I may very well have the monetary resources necessary for me to participate in the DH Teacher Training/Seminary Program.  I see the Hesed within Yesod throughout this whole phone conversation!

MB and I talked for more than an hour catching up.  We used to connect by phone every few months but haven't talked for probably a year.  She's been going through a LOT of change in her life that somehow precluded our phone contacts.  And, for some reason, her email account would not "get through" to my Comcast email account.  There was a block or something between the two email accounts.  I also see the Hesed within Yesod throughout this phone conversation as well.

One more thing that I noticed in both phone conversations (connections) was how there had been "disconnects."  And, another thing I noticed is how Foundations for both my friends, as well as myself, have been being shifted.

Hod (splendor, empathy, thankfulness, gratefulness, submission, surrender, joy)


Dropping into the 30th Gate of Consciousness, into the splendor of my True Nature.  Here's where my true strength lies.  I've experienced a number of periods today where I'm truly grateful for being who I am . . . and even not knowing fully who I am.  Yes, it sounds like a paradox and it is that.  The important thing for me now is to pay attention to whom I'm taking myself to be . . . so that I can see each identity and the ideas and beliefs each identity holds fixed in my mind.  These fixed ideas and beliefs are what makes my Gevurah out-of-balance . . . too much rigidity.  So, when I can remember to just let go . . . be exactly where I am without judgement (criticism) . . . just acceptance . . . then my experience will unfold to reveal more of what's real -- LIFE.
