Matriarchs on the KBLHic TOL

[trystinn]

A lively discussion on a Jewitchery group as produced the following:

Keter - as Divine Head - the Queen of Heaven
Chochma - as Wisdom - Sophia
Binah - as Understanding - Leah
Chesed - as Mercy - Dinah
Gevurah - as Severity - Miriam
Tiferet - as Beauty - Rachel
Netzach - as Victory - Esther
Hod - as Glory - Ruth
Yesod - as Foundation - Sarah
Malkuth - as Kingdom - Shekinah

Any thoughts from the peanut gallery?

I would have put Rivka in Gevurah, Miriam in Tiferet, Sarah in Chesed, Dinah in Yesod, and considered moving Rachel to Malkhut since she represents Shekhinah in her earthly mother form. Also, Sophia isn't really used in the Jewish system (more of a Greek idea): I'd be more inclined to stick Chavah there or something.

Good point about Sophia - she was included by another woman given the huge feminist identification with her.

I just find the concept interesting. Thanks for tuning in with your thoughts - much more to think about.
