Today is /rosh 'kho-desh/ (first of the month) Adar /a-'dar/, a month brimming with joy, good luck, and tradition, offering more than the celebration of Purim.

It's a time when we embrace happiness, as the famous saying from the Talmud, מִשֶּׁנִּכְנַס אֲדָר מַרְבִּין בְּשִׂמְחָה "When Adar begins, joy increases" highlighting the essence of this period.

In Adar, we remember Moses, who passed away on the 7th of Adar at the age of 120, marking both his birthday and the day of his death.

This duality adds depth to Adar, as even Haman the wicked, in his plot against the Jews, chose Adar for its association with Moses' death, unaware that it also celebrated his birth.

This oversight turned Adar from a month perceived with potential misfortune to one of victory and joy.

The name Adar itself signifies strength and majesty, used in modern Hebrew as /a-'deer/ אדיר, meaning - mighty.

Adar is astrologically linked to Pisces, the fish, a symbol of blessing and prosperity in Judaism, as it is believed that the evil eye has no power over them.

This symbolism infuses the month with an added layer of good fortune and protection.

Another surprising aspect of Adar is its link to the story of Purim beyond the obvious.

While the miraculous turn of events for the Jewish people during Purim is celebrated in Adar, Haman's actual downfall occurred in Nisan, during Passover, linking Adar to themes of liberation and renewal.

Adar also marks the historical moment before the Exodus from Egypt, as the last month the Israelites spent in bo***ge.

This positions Adar not just as a precursor to Passover but as a significant period of transition and anticipation for freedom and renewal.

Merging these elements, Adar emerges as a month rich in history, spirituality, and celebration.

From its double appearance in leap years to its deep ties with biblical stories and symbols of luck and blessing, Adar encapsulates themes of joy, resilience, and redemption, making it a uniquely special time in the Jewish calendar.
