He chose three letters
from among the Elementals
[in the Mystery of the three Mothers
Alef Mem Shin]
And he set them in His great Name
and with them, He sealed six Extremities.
Five: He sealed "above" and faced upward
and sealed it with י ה ו
— Sepher Yetzirah
Geburah is the Destroyer, the Warrior King, the Power of Judgement. It is the response to boundaries: where Chesed wants to push boundaries around, Geburah is reactionary, wanting to keep them where they are.
