The opening of this shiur, in הרב איתי בן אהרון’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Last week we gave a lesson here that Rosh Hashanah falling on Shabbat is a good sign for the people of Israel, and with God's help, we will all have a good and blessed year. Amen. A year of great salvation, joy, and gladness, with God's help. Amen. So, one should add to this: The Chida, in his book Yosef Tehillot on Psalm 81, brings a very, very beautiful hint— " Tiku Bachodesh Shofar"(Blow the shofar on the month) is an acronym. "Tiku Bachodesh Shofar" is an acronym. Shabbat. He speaks about the fact that it is a commandment to blow the shofar. We won't go into what the Chida hints at, but there is a lot to it. This is what we discussed last week: We said that even though we don't blow the shofar on Shabbat, we must still perform the mystical intentions ( kavanot). Why perform the intentions of the shofar? Because everything happens by itself, and they showed me that the Ramchal writes that it even happens with greater power. Meaning, not only does it happen by itself, it happens even better than in any other year. So, here we have a beautiful hint. Shabbat is the acronym for "Tiku Bachodesh Shofar." To tell us that even though you don't blow on Shabbat, the shofar itself performs its action, and the shofar is indeed blown up in heaven. Rabbi Tzadok HaKohen of Lublin, may his merit protect us. In his book Pri Tzadik. On Rosh Hashanah, section 17, he writes as follows: This is the matter regarding the provinces—when
