30 Cheshvan
30 חֶשְׁוָן
The Month of Cheshvan (חֶשְׁוָן)
Cheshvan (also called Marcheshvan) is the only month in the Hebrew calendar with no holidays or fasts, earning it the nickname "bitter Cheshvan" (Mar Cheshvan). Yet this quietude carries its own beauty — it is a month of returning to everyday life after the intense spiritual heights of Tishrei. Tradition teaches that the Third Temple will be dedicated in Cheshvan, giving this seemingly empty month an extraordinary future significance. The Great Flood in Noah's time began on 17 Cheshvan.
Born in Cheshvan
Cheshvan represents the power of everyday holiness. Those born in Cheshvan are said to possess deep inner strength and resilience.
Mazal: Scorpio (Akrav)
The Scorpion (Akrav) represents transformation and hidden depths. In Torah thought, Cheshvan's mazal reflects the power of teshuvah — the ability to transform even the most challenging situations into vessels of holiness. Those born under Akrav possess intense inner fire and determination.
