Chesed of Yesod: Today is 36 days, or five weeks and one day of the Omer

Unbounded love bound tight to the beloved. Connection that is driven by the gush, the onrush of lovingkindness. Both Chesed and Yesod flow out, toward another. Chesed is undifferentiated, but Yesod finds something to connect to. And if you've been doing the work, that something or someone is a healthy choice. So the power of Chesed is fierce, strong and flowing in the right direction.

Of course, on the negative side, this is connection wtihout boundaries, an invasive caring that disempowers.

In some ways, Chesed of Yesod captures the two sides of a parental kind of love. Which have you known?
