Moses Hayyim Luzzatto, Ma’amar ha-Ge’ullah, p. 72.

Jewish Mysticism
Now I will explain to you one principle and you will comprehend the rectification of the world…. The governance of the lower entitites is always by means of Tif’eret and Malkhut… and it is known to us that in the future her rectification will be the great rectification and her light will be very strong. … Concerning this matter it is said, “And the light of the moon shall become like the light of the sun” (Isa. 30-26), for she will no longer be smaller than he is but she will be equal to him. Then the two kings will make use of one crown.
