What’s in a Name? Jewish Names, Naming Rituals, and What Can Affect Them | Sefaria

From the Online Tikkun Leil last year (2021/5781).

4th Online Tikkun Leil Shavuot (Discord) (2022 / 5782)

Shavuot is June 4-6, 2022 / 6-7 Sivan 5782!

I’ve done a thing with a Discord server for the past few years for an Online Tikkun Leil Shavuot, and it’s happening again! We’re a small to medium sized server with most activity occurring around Shavuot.

Read here about what a Tikkun Leil Shavuot is.

Dates and potential times

Evening of Saturday, June 4 – early morning of Sunday, June 5. More specific times to come depending on presenter availability and number of workshops. (Past times have been anywhere from 8 pm - 2 am US Eastern; typical amount of workshops 2-3.)

Past topics have included:

• Does it spark joy? A discussion of what brings us joy in Judaism
• Making mistakes, executive dysfunction, and disabled aspects of Gd
• Radical self-compassion for Jews in a plague
• The concept of scattered souls and spirituality in Judaism
• A set of assorted mini-discussion topics
• What’s in a name?
• Polyamory and Judaism

Are you interested in presenting or attending?

Please reblog this post or reply to it and I can contact you with the link / ability to direct message me (I have messaging turned off for people I don’t follow on all my Tumblrs, as a general rule)! Or, send me an ask.

Topics should be accessible, inclusive, and ideally not require extensive Hebrew reading ability, as we don’t usually have a lot of sessions to choose from.

I currently have a couple discussions in progress around workshop hosting and will probably run one myself.
