WHERE THE LIGHT LANDS Seven Weeks of the Omer with Rabbi Amy Josefa Ariel

WHERE THE LIGHT LANDS Seven weeks. Seven gatherings. One question: Where does Divine Light actually show up in our lives?

We'll gather seven times - omer days 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, and 49 - for learning, reflection, writing, and prayer together. The thread running through all seven sessions is malchut — the kabbalistic understanding that divine light doesn't stay in the heavens. It travels. It lands. It shows up in our bodies, our relationships, our daily acts of courage and lovingkindness. It shows up in us.

I am offering this series on a sliding scale contribution of $0–$180. Every dollar — every single one — goes entirely to feeding our refugee neighbors in Saint Paul. What you bring is welcome. Who you are is what matters. The tzedakah we gather is itself an act of malchut. When Divine Light travels it lands, and together we are going to help some of it land in Minnesota.
