There are ten sefirot which come from the ten powers of the soul possessing names similar to sefirot. The soul is manifested and expressed via its powers. There are two major categories of such which are transcendent and immanent powers. The transcendent are also referred to as oneg and ratzon and they correspond to the above mentioned keter while the immanent ones are classified into emotions and intellect. The intellect ones are daat, bina and chochma regarding the power of soul.
Chochma refers to the innovative and usually hard to predict souls power. Its manifestation is in spontaneous inspiration and insights. This is an intellectual illumination or intuitive flash yet to be developed and processed through the understanding supremacy of bina. Bina which is translated to refer to understanding is cognitive faculty which articulates and develops the chochma seminal energy for it to become known in a way that is detailed and conceptual.
Daat comes takes the third position in intellect faculty. It is gift to internalize and harmonize the opposing views or states of existence. It has dual roles. First is uniting cochma attribute and bina. Second is a bridge between intellect and emotion attributes opposing domains.
Love or chesed comes first in the attributes of emotion. It is inspired by benevolence force and love. It gets termed as gedula often times due to its nurturing the other soul traits to maturity and full development. Tiferet blends and brings harmony to chesed and gevura. It is referred to be the truth trait too because of its reliance to recipient merit to some extent. It however inclines towards chesed making it be known as mercy or rachamim.
Gevura is tied to din force and confines expansiveness of chesed on its benevolence. It also represents fear as an emotional attribute. Whereas chesed fosters generous and unconditional giving not taking into account worthiness of the person receiving the act of goodness, gevura debates that this should not be the case for fear that the recipient may misuse what they receive or are not earnest to receive it. On the same note, the receiver credibility is judged in relation to their degree of merit.
Sometimes the soul will feel the aspects of victory. They will have more initiatives and persistence in order to overcome resistance on their way and to feel that they did a positive action. Victory assumes initiative, Eternity will encourage persistence. Orchestration will make you have a creative plan to deploy all the other qualities intelligently. This quality will be better in confident people and those who follow the laws of God.
Hod which means surrender complements netzach. Where netzach surges forward to overcome the obstacles between the receiver and the benevolence to be extended, hod works to warrant the success the recipient gets is centered on acknowledging that there exist a divine source behind the power and potency. Hod thus stands for genuineness and innocence. Zohar terms the relationship this two have as two parts of a single body, like twins.
Yesod is that quality that blends all the mentioned qualities to a single unit. It also represents a saintly individual. It builds an individual who is God fearing and acts according to how slaves follow their masters. Being loyal and sovereign also important. If one believes that there are heavenly powers taking control, then he will have the strengths and the wisdom he needs.
