Come and learn the connection between Kabbalah and the Omer. The period of the counting of the Omer is considered to be a time of potential for inner growth – for a person to work on one's good characteristics (middot) through reflection and development of one aspect each day for the 49 days of the counting. In Kabbalah, each of the seven weeks of the Omer-counting is associated with one of the seven lower sefirot: 1. Chesed (loving-kindness) 2. Gevurah (might) 3. Tipheret (beauty) 4. Netzach (victory) 5. Hod (acknowledgment) 6. Yesod (foundation) 7. Malchut (kingdom) -
