The Tefillin that the Creator Wears, Good Days, and Intermediate Days
197. Those that receive from GAR of YESHSUT are called “good days.” They are the head Tefillin, which are Tefillin that the Creator wears, meaning they are Mochin of ZA, which are called Tefillin. This is why they are called “good,” since they shine in the Rosh [top/beginning/head] of the upper holiness, ZA.
198. In every place, good days are the head Tefillin that the Creator wears. “Intermediate Days* that are not called “good days” are the hand Tefillin, Malchut, since the moon, Malchut, has nothing of her own, except what she receives from the light of a good day, ZA.
* Intermediate Days [Heb: Chol HaMoed] are days between the two holy days on Passover and on Sukkot.
199. The arm Tefillin are the hand Tefillin, which shines only from the light of the head Tefillin. The head Tefillin is good days, Mochin of ZA, and the arm Tefillin is the intermediate days, Mochin of Malchut.
