Spirit Walk into strength (gevurah)

On this walk we'll connect with nature and our strength and capacity for boundaries. This is the attribute of gevurah in Hebrew as we immerse in the process of Counting the Omer after Passover. Mother Earth has much to teach us about this attribute.

We'll walk and wander, we'll stop, listen and attune to the more-than-human world; we might chant a little, journal a little and see what wisdom we can receive and offer on our way from liberation to revelation.

Meet at the Corwina Park parking area on the north side of Rte 74.

What is the Counting of the Omer? It's a process that some Jewish folks engage in over the seven weeks between Passover and the holiday of Shavuot. In the Jewish mystical tradition each week of this period focuses on one of the sefirot, or emanations of the Divine, on the kabbalistic tree of life, from loving kindness (chesed in Hebrew) to sovereignty (malchut in Hebrew).

While this is informed by the Jewish calendar, it is universally applicable and open to all. Everyone can benefit from more loving kindness, right?

I'm open to contributions from the generous of heart (to quote Torah) to cover the cost of this group. $18 is a special number in Judaism, but donate what you're moved to offer.
