However, its end is soft: for when she has finished taking all those judgments sawed from the male, she has nothing more to give. And it was that in the Nukva her strength was mighty at first, all the while she takes judgments from the male; but when she has finished enacting the judgments she received from him, she has nothing more to give, and her strength weakens, and behold she is soft. But the male is not so, for he does not need any other; and the more he proceeds, the more he grows stronger. On the contrary, his head is soft and his end is hard.

1When she has finished taking those judgments sawn from the male, etc., she has nothing more to give, etc., and her strength weakens, and behold she is soft. It has already been explained that these judgments that are sawn are the discernment of the bringing down of the bottom Hey from the Einayim to the Peh [mouth], which raises the new NHY from BYA; and these NHY are always judgments, for they are the posterior vessels, which are the discernment of judgment. And the male gives her only the level of the Mochin; but these Mochin cause the Nukva to raise her AHP from BYA, and therefore it is regarded that the male enacts the judgments within her. And after the lower third of each and every Sefira of her ten Sefirot has been completed, behold, the male has nothing further to enact within her by way of raising vessels from BYA, since she has already received her whole portion that she needs for the completion of her ten Sefirot. Then they rise a second time as MAN [Mayin Nukvin], and she receives the Mochin of face to face, which are the Hassadim of AB, as above.
And this is what he says, “all the while she takes judgments from the male; and when she has finished enacting the judgments she received from him, she has nothing more to give” — that is, as explained: after she has finished enacting the raising of her AHP in all her particulars, she then receives Mochin of MA, which are the Hassadim of AB, and there are no longer judgments in the Nukva, for they have been entirely sweetened. And this is what they said, its beginning is hard and its end is soft. For from the beginning of the coming of the Mochin she receives only the discernment of the judgments, without the sweetening of the lights of MA that are fit to sweeten them in wholeness, and therefore they are hard at first. But at their end, that is, after the vessels have been entirely completed, she receives the Mochin of MA, and there are no longer any judgments there at all, for they have been sweetened.
2The male is not so, for he does not need any other, and the more he proceeds the more he grows stronger. On the contrary, his head is soft and the end is hard. And here you must remember the original difference between the Mochin of the male and the Mochin of the female, which the ARI explained above in Part 14 (page 1589, items 156 and 159). And see the Inner Light there. And it was explained there that the place of the emergence of the Mochin of ZA is in the GAR [first three] of AA, where the discernment of the Atara of Gevura that serves there is the Mazal VeNakeh, which is the discernment of the Malchut of the first restriction; but the discernment of the Atara of Gevura of the Mochin of the Nukva is the Malchut of Ima, which is not included in the Mochin of ZA, and which is the discernment of the Malchut of the second restriction; study it there well.
And therefore the Gevurot of the Nukva are hard at the head, that is, before the bottom Hey has descended from the Einayim to the Peh [mouth], which restores to her the NHY of vessels and the GAR of lights of MA; for then the judgments of the second restriction still rule, from the bottom Hey that is in the place of the Einayim, over her vessels of AHP. But after she has received the Mochin of MA upon the bottom Hey, and it returned to the place of the Peh, behold, the judgments have been entirely sweetened, and there is no longer any force of judgment in her Malchut. However ZA, whose Atara of Gevura is drawn from the Mazal VeNakeh, which is the discernment of the Malchut of the first restriction — behold, these judgments are entirely sweetened only in the discernment of his head, that is, in the place where the Mochin exist; for through this Atara of Gevura he raises MAN [Mayin Nukvin] and restores Bina to be Hochma, as is written there in Part 14. But in his end, that is, in their expansion from the Mochin from above downward — where from this discernment there is no coupling upon this Gevura, as is written there — behold, they go on and grow stronger; for this Malchut of the first restriction is the root of all the Gevurot, and by the force of her judgments she likewise ended all the Partzufim [pl. of Partzuf] of AK, and she is not entirely sweetened until after the completion of the whole correction, as the ARI wrote in the secret of the verse, “has become the cornerstone.” And this is what he says, “the male is not so, for he does not need any other, and the more he proceeds the more he grows stronger”; for the Nukva has nothing but the Malchut of Ima, as above, which is of the second restriction, and which is in essence her own discernment of the Atara of Gevura — except that the Mochin do not emerge save through inclusion in the root of the Gevurot that is in ZA, which is of the first restriction. However, since she receives only a mere illumination from this Gevura of the first restriction, therefore after she receives the Mochin the force of judgment within her ceases entirely, as above. This is not so with ZA, in whom there is the root of the Gevurot from himself, and who does not need to receive their illumination from another, as the Nukva does; and therefore his judgments are hard in his end, for the root of the Gevurot is not entirely sweetened before the end of correction, as above.
