22 Adar II
22 אֲדָר ב׳
The Month of Adar II (אֲדָר ב׳)
Adar II only exists in a Hebrew leap year (7 out of every 19 years). When a leap year occurs, an extra month of Adar is added, and Purim is celebrated in Adar II rather than Adar I. This ensures that Purim falls close to Passover, maintaining the connection between the two redemptions. Those born in Adar II in a leap year have a unique birthday — their Hebrew birthday only comes around in leap years, though they typically celebrate in regular Adar during non-leap years.
