Counting the Omer with Visual Journaling - Day 23


Today is the 23rd day, making three weeks and two days of the Omer.  Strength within Endurance:  Gevurah within Netzach.  My strength and endurance are ebbing, and if I'm going to have any tomorrow I need to hit the sack.  

This is one of the most amazing images of the sefirot:



I looked it up, and it is by Christian von Rosenroth, a German Christian Kabbalist, in his book Kabbala Denudata, published 1684.  Apparently the tradition of Christian Kabbalists who thought it all pointed to Jesus, with the three highest sefirot representing the Trinity goes pretty far back.  I just like the image and its design.
