Abstract
This article discusses the question whether there was any relation between women and kabbalistic literature. Here we learn about some examples to women involving in kabbalistic rituals of Tikkunim, women studying Zohar and other kabbalistic books, women as authors of Tikkunim, ethical compositions including kabbalistic matter, and poetry. Also, women performed kabbalistic instructions of the Zohar and Rabbi Isaac Luria. The kabbalists described their theurgic function as the same of that of men.
