זהו כלל בכל התיקונים, אך ענינו לפרש בו ענין תיקוני הדיקנא:

**138 Openings of Wisdom, translated by Rabbi Avraham Greenbaum. The Azamra Institute, 2005:**
*This is a general rule that applies to all the different repairs found in the Partzufim. Our purpose here is to understand how it applies to the Repairs of the Beard. (The 13 “Repairs” of the Beard of Arich Anpin – the 13 Attributes of Mercy, as signified by differing arrangements of the hairs in different locations of the beard – are elaborated in the*Idra Rabba*.)*

**מהם עשוים להמשיך השפע בהם,** וזה בדיקנא - סוד התרין מזלין, שהם עשוים דוקא להמשיכו ולגלותו:

**…is in some cases to channel the flow of blessing…** In the case of the Beard, the repairs that channel the flow of blessing are the Two Mazalot – Notzer, the eighth, and Venakeh, the thirteenth attribute. (“Why is this noble thread – the Beard – called Mazal? Because from it hang constellations and constellations – higher and lower…” – *Idra Rabba* 134a.) The specific purpose of the Two Mazalot is to draw down and reveal the light of Arich Anpin in Zeir Anpin.
