Each one of these sefiros has seven aspects as well, representing the seven lower sefiros. These are printed in most sidurim next to the day of the Sefira. (E.g. on day one, chessed shebechessed, day two gevurah shebechessed, etc.) <BR/><BR/>How does this help us practically as a way of preparing for Shavuous? Each of the seven lower sefiros corresponds to one of the seven primary emotional midos. The period between Pesach and Shavuous is the perfect time to work on improving these midos.<BR/><BR/>There is a wonderful sefer to which I was introduced this year called Usfartem Lachem. The author Rav Daniel Frisch ZT"L wrote this sefer to impart practical advice regarding what to be working on during this period of Sefiras HaOmer. He explains each day's sefira in relatively simple terms and gives various eitzos. It's a great sefer.<BR/><BR/>Rav Frisch, btw, wrote Masok MiDvash, a popular traditional commentary on the Zohar.Moshe David Tokayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18201862051914605921noreply@blogger.com
