Each year in preparation for Passover, and International Women’s Day,

Joy Krauthammer, spiritual timbrelist,
offers the workshop

MIRIYAHM HaNeviah ~ Do You Share Miriyahm’s Joyous Attributes and Song?

Open the well of Torah wisdom and insight into Miriyahm the Prophetess. Discover how Miriyahm “Served G*d With Joy.” How does Miriyahm inspire us?

What can 'sister' Miriyahm teach us about our self, and our connection to the Source of BlesSings when we look within our soul?

Joy's vision and kavannah is to reflect on the Miriyahm manifesting within ourself, dipping into our own deep well of blesSings, while giving feminine voice to our ancestral sister.

Miriyahm's miraculous Well (Be'er of Mayim Chayim, living waters) is a vessel of Divinity hidden within each of us and awaits birthing or expansion. In the light of Miriyahm HaNeviah consciousness, and the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, we examine our Sephirotic attributes B’Tzelem Elokim, in the image of G*d.

* What are our highest values and are they in alignment with our soul and our work as Earth Walker?

* Are we doing what we believe in and what we do well?
* Are we sharing our gifts as did Miriyahm?

Celebrate yourself in the joyous month of ADAR, and also in the memory of Debbie Friedman, z’l, renowned Jewish composer and singer of “Miriam’s Song.”

"I offer this class in the zechut of my holy chareidi Jerusalem rebbe, Yosef Ben Shlomo Hakohen, z"l, (born in NY as Jeff Oboler. Reb Yosef died 27 Elul.) - May his neshama have a beautiful, sweet and swift aliyah as he is embraced by all angels and The Compassionate One, whom he dearly loved." - Joy Krauthammer

SARAH'S TENT celebrates ROSH CHODESH IYAR with New Moon rituals.

The Miriyahm HaNeviah workshop for women with Joy Krauthammer in her "Don't Postpone Joy" series, "Ivdu Et Hashem B'Simcha" ~ Serve G*d With Joy, is during the Sephirot HaOmer, Counting of the Omer (Omer begins on 16 Nisan, second night Pesach and lasts until Shavuot). The Counting Omer 49 day ritual provides a preparation time for personal awareness, expansion and transformation for a spiritual purification journey from enslavement to liberation. At this tragic time in Israel and the world, it is especially important for us to recognize our own Holiness.

In Light and greater awakening of G*dly attributes, the Sephirot of Malchut sh b'Gevurah - by receiving energies from the entire Kabbalistic Tree of Life, Eitz Chayim - we bring our internal heaven and earth together. Welcome Shekhinah, the Indwelling Feminine Presence, to complete in consciousness, the Gevurah Omer week and to balance our selves with Limitation, Judgment and Strength.

With crystal and Tibetan singing bowls and bells, gongs, chimes, chant, meditation, and timbrels raised in hand, let us joyously sing and dance blessings and praise to the Source of Life in the light of Miriyahm HaNeviah.

MIRIYAHM HA NEVIAH, the Prophetess' yahrzeit is 10 Nisan. In her zechut / merit, Joy Krauthammer offers teachings for our sacred selves on the secret of "SWOT".

Joy's vision and kavannah / intention for this celebration is for us to reflect on the Miriyahm HaNeviah manifesting within ourselves, the spiritual attributes and physical actions in her life that inspire us, and to dip into our own deep Well of BlesSings, while giving feminine voice to our ancestral sister. Miriyahm's miraculous Well (Be'er of Mayim Chayim, living waters) is a vessel of Divinity hidden within each of us and awaiting birthing.

Do you embody the qualities of Miriyahm HaNeviah?

3.8.2017 Today is International Women's Day. Of all the years I have posted an image to represent this day, this year feels the most relevant. Never before have we seen, experienced and witnessed such a potent and emotionally charged rising of the Woman. As we are triggered by political and world events, Women are hearing a call so loud in their consciousness and are finally collectively rising. As women we are vessels of compassion, wisdom and nurture.....and as Women we know that the way to change the world is through Love not hate. My painting of Miriam the Prophetess is reflective of the role that women now have in shaping and molding a new reality. There have never been more sisterhoods than now, spiritually, politically and community based. Today is a day of celebration of all that we have achieved and all that we, as 50% of the world population have still to protect, defend and rise up for. May you be inspired to rise up to your best and most highest potential today..... Jo xxx

The partial short pshat explanation for my personalized vanity auto license plate

JOY YAHM (Exodus 15:20)

I had JOY YAHM for last 28 years (since 1996) on my periwinkle purple truck transporting tons of timbrels:

The story of Miriyahm and her leading the women to freedom with timbrel and song Kriyas Yam Suf
ON MY LICENSE PLATE.

My plate reads

JOY YAHM

YAHM = YAH, YAHM, (Miri)YAHM

Y Y = Yehudim, Israelites with arms outstretched in prayer song to YAH in JOY.

JOY = their song in their heart, crossing the YAHM/sea to freedom.

(Miri)YAHM without the mar/bitterness (Miriyahm HaNeviah, the Prophetess)

praising YAH (G*D),

with YY = Yehudim community arms outstretched, in JOY,

crossing the YAHM/sea, to freedom,

as B'nai Horin / children of freedom with timbrels in their hands.

My Jewish theme encompasses the Four Worlds: Spirit, Mind, Heart and Body.

I, Joy, am a timbrel player.

I personalized my auto license frame with Jewish prayer and song.
