Putting Your Foot Down

Today is the thirtieth day, which is four weeks and two days, of the Omer. The essence of the day is Gevurah of Hod. This is harsh resistance to action, by following strict judgment you have decided to become a complete impediment to any forward progress along the path that you oppose. This is really slamming your foot down. An interesting discussion of slamming your foot down can be found on onion soup mix. Further discussed at midianite manna and rabbi without a cause. Obviously this sort of action might have undesirable consequences.
