The Count
Tonight we count the following day of the Omer:
Today is 10 days, which is 1 week and 3 days of the Omer

Today’s Learning
Pirkei Avot 6:6 tells us: Greater is learning Torah than the priesthood and than royalty, for royalty is acquired by thirty stages, and the priesthood by twenty-four, but the Torah by forty-eight things.
The 10th way is: By attending to the sages
From our community:
When I am looking for inspiration for our family practices such as candle lighting, seders, and lifecycle events, I often turn to Ritualwell.org. It was first recommended to us by the rabbi who did our wedding as a source for feminist wedding ideas. It includes rituals and meditations on many aspects of contemporary life – meditations for working parents, or blessings for hope during Covid, for example. I often browse it just to enjoy the poetry and to reflect on possibilities for incorporating holiness into everyday life.
