ARIES
The letter Dalet that created Mars, the planet of war, is the tyrannical ruler of Aries (and Scorpio as well).
Moses knew that in the month of Nissan/Aries, being a fire sign with Mars as ruler of the month, you can take advantage of Mars energy and power in order to wage war on the negative power of Egypt, meaning the negative power of the absolute Desire to Receive for oneself alone on the negative side. Break free of addictions to anything that keeps us in bondage, go out from slavery to freedom.
TAURUS
The Book of Formation says, “He crowned the letter Pei and created with it Venus in the world and Thursday in the year and the left nostril in the soul, He crowned the letter Vav and created with it Taurus in the world and Iyar in the year and the left hand in the soul.”
The letters Pei and Vav control the month of Iyar, and the constellation of Taurus.
Iyar is the second month after Nissan, and is completely under the influence of the period known as the Counting of the Omer. When Moses took the Israelites out of Egypt, they received freedom, liberty, and liberation without any effort. For that reason, the Light of Passover disappeared; in order to give us the opportunity to work and earn all that Light that we received for free.
GEMINI
Sivan is the third month of the Hebrew (lunar) year, and is Central Column of the air signs. The controlling planet is Mercury, in Hebrew – Kochav. Kochav’s numerical value is Caf Vav = 26 (the Yud Hei Vav Hei the Tetragrammaton) and Caf Bet = 22 letters of the Hebrew Alphabet, together creating the most powerful and energetic combination. Mercury is the planet of communication, which means it has the qualifications of an electrical cable, telephone wire, a teacher, an adviser, a story teller – basically anything that can transfer any information from point a to point b.
The letter (Zayin) created the sign of Gemini and the letter (Resh) created Mercury. Together these two letter create the word Raz, whose numerical value is 207 – Light (Or). Raz also means secret (sod) in Hebrew.
CANCER
The moon is unlike any other celestial body, as it changes its position each day, but remains visible nonetheless. It begins each lunar month as a thin scythe and reaches its fullest brightness on the fifteenth. From the moment that the fifteenth day is over, the light of the moon begins to wane, and this cycle repeats itself each month.
According to “The Book of Formation” by Avraham Avinu, the month of Cancer was created by the Hebrew letters Chet (which created Tammuz) and Taf (which created the Moon). The moon is unlike any other celestial body, as it changes its position each day, but remains visible nonetheless. It begins each lunar month as a thin scythe and reaches its fullest brightness on the fifteenth. From the moment that the fifteenth day is over, the light of the moon begins to wane, and this cycle repeats itself each month.

LEO
Av is one of the three most negative months of the year. The other two are Tevet (Capricorn), because it is ruled by Saturn, which a planet of harsh judgments, and Tammuz (Cancer) because it is ruled by the moon. Av – sign of Leo – is ruled by the sun, and is the Left Column of the fire signs. This indicates an added influence of fire which is expressed as judgments, burning and consuming fire with no balance. This is the reason we experience a polarity of events, some negative and some positive. The Book of Formation says the letter Tet created Leo and the letter Caf created the sun. Together we get the energetic combination that controls the month of Av and Leo.
At the center of our solar system, the sun brings each of the planets light, heat and life, without which organic life could not exist.
VIRGO
Mercury in Hebrew is Kochav. Numerology value is Caf and Vav = 26 = Yud Hei Vav Hei and Caf Vet = 22 = the 22 letters of the Hebrew Aleph Bet, which indicates that Mercury is a planet of communication.
Financially it is not an easy month. Many important change might happen, the need for new business ventures, different ones with new consciousness. International business connections can take place.
The month of Elul is the completion of the lunar year. This month corresponds to the sign of Virgo, which is an earth sign and is ruled by Mercury. The sign of Virgo is connected to the practicality, working and serving others. People born in this month feel the need to achieve financial security through working, and also have a great need to serve society.
LIBRA
Tishrei is the sign of Libra, the seventh month of the astrological wheel that begins in Nissan (Arie). Libra is Mozna’aim in Hebrew meaning scale, like a grocery scale. In ancient times, the scale was used by putting on the objects to be weighed on one side and stones in units of measurement on the other. In our modern times we use digital scales, and the balancing effect of the scales has been lost. In any case, the idea of the scale it to take two opposite and different things and check the difference between them.
The month of Tishrei was created by the letter Lamed. This letter is very special as it is the only letter in the Hebrew Aleph Bet which goes above the line. Lamed is built from two triangles, upper and lower, to show us that we can build the balance between the parallel universe. We live in a physical world, but the true world is the metaphysical one. The scales can help us to connect and fuse the two worlds.
SCORPIO
The astrological month of Scorpio, or as it is called in Hebrew Mar-Cheshvan (Bitter Cheshvan), is the Left column water sign, and is ruled by the plant Mars (Ma’adim) and Pluto.
The Book of Formation speaks of seven planets in the solar system. In the last century, three more planets were revealed and as a result, Pluto has been found to bear influence on the sign of Scorpio.
Mars, the traditional ruler of the month of Scorpio, is the planet and Greek god of war, which makes all Scorpios warriors who have the drive to eliminate their enemy no matter what toll it takes on anyone else. This is the hardest Tikun (correction) of Scorpions – to find the Central Column, control the urge to avenge, and to live, love and let go. Mar-Cheshvan, as the month is formally known, in Hebrew means bitter Cheshvan. However, it can be transformed into Ram Cheshvan (elevated Cheshvan). Our job throughout the month is to transform that which is bitter into sweet, that which is lowly to lofty. It takes a strong consciousness and self-control to achieve this transformation.
SAGITTARIUS
Kislev is the sign of Sagittarius. It is central column of the fire signs, ruled by Jupiter, in Hebrew “Tzedek”, and the Hebrew letters Samech and Gimel. The letter Samech created the sign of Sagittarius. Samech comes from the phrase Somech noflim (supporting the fallen). In the Zohar, the article called “the letter of Rav Hamnuna Saba (the Elder)”, it says that the Hebrew letters came before the Creator to ask that the world be created beginning with each one. When the letter Samech came before the Creator, the Creator told it to go back to its place, which is after the letter Nun, and to support the Nun from falling. That is how we get the word nes (Eng. miracle). The letter Nun created the sign of Scorpio in which the Flood happened, and after the Flood God put the rainbow in the sky as an omen that there never be a flood again.
Sagittarius in Hebrew is called Keshet, or rainbow. This is the rainbow in the sky, an omen between God and Noach a flood would never destroy the land. Keshet is represented by the centaur, the mythological half-man, half-horse figure who hunts with a bow and arrow.
CAPRICORN
The Zohar it says how all the Hebrew letters came to the Creator, one by one, asking Him to create the world with it. Each letter in the Hebrew alphabet it an antenna to draw energy, with the positive or the negative side in her. Eventually the Creator decided to create the world with the letter Bet which is Blessing. Saturn was created with the letter Bet that was given to it wisdom, even though Saturn is the planet of destruction, since it has no desire for anything that has to do with the body or the physical realm and that is why it cancels them. The letter Ayin created Capricorn. Together we get a very energetic and powerful combination, Ayin + Bet = the 72 Names of God which Moses used to split the Red Sea. Ayin Bet correlates to the Tetragrammaton (Yud Hei Vav Hei).
Tevet is one of the three negative months in the year, Tammuz (Cancer), Av (Leo) and Tevet (Capricorn). On the Tenth day of this month started the siege around the walls of Jerusalem, on the seventeen day of Tammuz, the walls of Jerusalem were broken through and on the ninth day of Av happened the destruction of the Temple. Tevet brings out and manifests all the negative energy of Saturn – difficulties, pressures and problems of all kinds.
AQUARIUS
D’li in Hebrew, Aquarius is numerically 44, same as blood, Dam. This means that the month of Shevat can be connected to the energy of the tree – the Tree of Life, consciousness of certainty and Love Thy Neighbor as Thy Self, or conversely, to the consciousness of bloodshed.
PISCES
Pisces completes the astrological cycle that begins with Aries. It is Central Column of the water signs, and is controlled by two planets, Jupiter and Neptune.
Jupiter controls two signs: Pisces and Sagittarius. These two months, Adar and Kislev, are characterized by the tremendous miracles that took place because of the energy of Jupiter. Sagittarius marks the miracles of Chanukah. Adar coined the miracle of Purim, created by Esther, Mordechai, and the unity between the Jews in Shushan, Persia. This “togetherness” and mass effort of unconditional sharing caused the miracle that prevented the total extermination of the Jews in Persia, under Achashverosh’s rule.
