The month you were born and its spiritual symbolism according to traditional biblical interpretations.

The month you were born in is not a coincidence.
From a biblical and Hebrew perspective, it is taught that God intentionally chose the exact time when your soul came into this world. Each month has a particular energy, a different spiritual quality, and knowing it can help you better understand your gifts, your challenges, and your way of living the faith.

This does not mean that your destiny is predetermined by the date of your birth or that you should guide your life by divination or horoscope. The Torah is clear in rejecting any attempt to predict the future. However, it also teaches that knowing how we are formed and what tendencies we bring allows us to better exercise our free will and make more conscious decisions, always above any external influence.

The Hebrew tradition explains these energies through the 12 months of the Hebrew calendar, described in ancient texts such as the Sefer Yetzira, always in harmony with the Torah. Below, we explore the spiritual significance of each month.

Kislev (usually coincides with December)

Main energy: sleep and intuition

Kislev is the month of light in the midst of darkness, marked by the holiday of Hanukkah. Its energy is associated with sleep, not only as physical rest, but as a spiritual door. Dreaming, in the biblical tradition, is a profound form of revelation. Jacob dreamed, Joseph dreamed, and through dreams divine messages were transmitted.

People born in Kislev are often dreamy, intuitive, and full of hope. They have the ability to see possibilities when others only see difficulty. Their challenge is not to disconnect from reality or live solely in the world of ideals.

Tevet (January)

Main energy: the impetus and inner strength

This month represents the energy of intense momentum. It can manifest as anger or rage, but also as a powerful force capable of breaking stagnant structures. Those born in Tevet are usually pioneers, tireless fighters, people who do not give up easily.

The challenge is to learn how to channel that energy without falling into frustration or aggressiveness. Well directed, it can turn them into leaders capable of provoking profound changes.

Shevat (February)

Prime Energy: The Result and the Abundance

Shevat is related to trees and their fruits. Their energy speaks of results, of achieving goals and of aspiring to the great. It teaches that God does not give in proportion to human effort, but from abundance.

People this month usually aspire to great achievements, but they must be careful not to despise processes or lose patience. Faith and perseverance are key to balancing this energy.

Adar (March)

Main Energy: Joy

Adar is the month of laughter and celebration, marked by Purim. Sincere joy has enormous spiritual value. Making others happy is considered a high act.

Those born in this month are usually charismatic and optimistic. The challenge is not to fall into superficial mockery or empty fun that loses spiritual depth.

Nisan (April)

Main energy: the word and communication

Nisan is the first biblical month and the month of Passover. It is deeply linked to speech, to telling, teaching and transmitting. People this month have a natural gift for communicating, leading, and guiding others with their words.

The balance is in knowing when to speak and when to be silent, using the word to liberate and not to hurt.

Iyar (May)

Main energy: inner reflection

This month favors introspection and deep thinking. People born in Iyar are usually thoughtful, creative, and able to spend time with themselves.

The risk is excessive isolation. The challenge is to combine inner reflection with a healthy openness to others.

Sivan (June)

Main energy: the path and the process

Sivan is the month of the giving of the Torah. Its energy is linked to movement, constant learning and process. People this month are usually active, restless, and persevering.

They must be careful not to be left alone on the road without enjoying the fruits, learning to value both the process and the result.

Tammuz (July)

Main energy: vision

Tammuz is associated with sight. Those born in this month have a great capacity to observe, analyze and appreciate aesthetics.

The challenge is not to stay on the surface and to learn to develop a deeper, spiritual and conscious vision.

Av (August)

Main energy: listening

This month is linked to hearing and the ability to listen beyond words. It is a month of historical pain, but also of profound learning.

Av people often understand things that others don’t. They must be careful not to overinterpret or carry more than what was actually said.

Elul (September)

Main energy: the action

Elul is the month of conscious action and spiritual preparation. Those born in this month are usually practical, responsible and leaders by example.

Her challenge is not to fall into empty activism, but to act with purpose and spiritual connection.

Tishrei (October)

Main energy: touch and experience

Tishrei concentrates the most solemn festivities. It is a deeply sensory month, where spirituality is lived through experience.

People this month feel intensely. They must lean toward elevated experiences and not be swept away by empty pleasures.

Cheshvan (November)

Main energy: smell and spiritual intuition

This month is associated with the sense of smell, which in the Hebrew tradition symbolizes spiritual intuition. Those born in Cheshvan often have a deep connection with the invisible and the transcendent.

Balance is in not disconnecting from material reality while developing your inner world.
