The secrets of Kabbalah behind the month of Sivan - Rabbi Alon Anava

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Alon Anava’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

There's a sham tonight is going to be Rosh Chodesh Sivan. And as we do every month, we learn a little bit about the month and what can be achieved on the month and a little bit of uh spiritual and mystical significance of the month, but mainly what can be achieved during that month. And Sivan is a very, very special month because that's the month that the Torah was given in. So, when we learned about Nissan, the dominating part of Nissan was Pesach. We learned about Iyar, the dominating part of Iyar was Lag BaOmer. Every time, every month, there's something that is very dominating in the month. Some months don't have any anything special. Don't have any holiday. But in the month of Sivan is a very special month this because the Torah was given and not nothing happens by chance. It wasn't that it just worked out according to the party planner that the Torah should be given on Sivan. It's a It's a more of a divine plan. And if we see that the Torah was given on the month of Sivan, means that it's a has something very, very special in it. And Sivan we know is the third month of the calendar counting from Nissan of course. Most people understand that the first month is Tishrei just because it's the beginning of the year but really the the the calendar starts from Nissan.
