When this queen unites with the king, all realms are blessed and are in complete joy. Just as the Male comprises three columns and the beginning is in three – Chochmah, Binah and Da’at – so is everything. Even the body is composed of three – Chesed, Gvurah, Tiferet – so is the ending of the torso – which is Netzach, Hod and Yesod. The queen is blessed only through the inclusion of the three, Netzach, Hod and Yesod; for her root in Zeir Anpin begins at the chest, so she only attains from the chest of Zeir Anpin down.
She is perfumed and blessed from the place called the lower Holy of Holies, which is Yesod. Arich Anpin, and Aba and Ima, are called the upper Holy of Holies while Yesod of Malchut is called the lower Holy of Holies; as written, “for there Hashem has commanded the blessing” (Tehillim 133:3), referring to Zion that is called Holy of Holies. There are two levels, above and below, Zion and Jerusalem. Yesod of Malchut is called Zion and Malchut of Malchut is called Jerusalem; and Zion is called the Holy of Holies.
