Omer Day 21 מלכות שבתפארת Malchut SheBeTiferet

Majesty. Reality. Actualization. Selfitude. Indwelling Presence within Compassion. Beauty. Harmony. Equanimity. Splendor. Balance.

1) Reality. It’s not always easy to face. When nested in the Heart of Compassion, it becomes a choice I can happily make.

2) What brings you into your most Majestic Self? I’d be willing to bet that moments of Beauty, Splendor, and Compassion come to mind.

3) Glance at the sun. See the moon and the stars. Gaze at the Beauty of Earth’s greenings. Now, think. What delight G8d gives to humankind with all these things. Who gives all these shining, wonderful gifts, if not G8d? - Hildegard of Bingen

Today may you feel Divine Presence in the Beauty all around you. May your Reality be clothed in Compassion.
