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.
Many secrets were revealed in the cosmos during the month of Sivan. Sivan is
known as the month of “Matan Torah - the giving of the Torah.” The sixth day of
the month, the holiday of Shavuot, is the cosmic day on which we finish the the
counting of the Omer and culminates the 49 days that we began counting on the
first day of Passover. When the awesome light of freedom was revealed on
Passover, this light was given to us with no effort from our side. That is why
we “count the Omer”; to build vessels, through correcting our actions that cause
the Light to be concealed. On this fiftieth day after Passover, we reach the
level of Binah. An awesome amount of light is revealed on this day, as it is the
anniversary of when people of the world received the Torah. The energy of Zeir
Anpin - the endless Light of "bila hamavet lanetzach" – when death was swallowed
up forever, which resulted in immortality. The very same energy of immortality
is revealed each year on Shavuot. The Ari says that whoever remains awake on
Shavuot, engaging in Zohar study, is promised to be total protection and safety
until Rosh Hashanah.
Geminis are intellectuals who have the desire to know everything, and an
unlimited curiosity to collect information of every kind. This is because
knowledge is power, and the more information gathered today will make future
choices easier to make. The Gemini’s need to collect information enables them to
choose what is good and what is bad, what is right or wrong. This explains
Gemini’s tendency to jump from one subject to the other, and that is why, of
course, they have many questions, doubts and uncertainties. The end result is
their reluctance to enter any sort of commitment.
The solution for this personal obstacle is to find a teacher, someone that is
able to give satisfactory answers to all questions. This will enable the Gemini
to focus on one way, one God, which gives them a better chance to reach
certainty. There is no greater teacher than a Gemini with a firm sense of
certainty. As a communication sign, Gemini can be the perfect channel, one who
can learn, understand and teach. The ideal for a Gemini is to be a channel for
as many people as possible, especially for those who are lost on their path, and
help others to reach their own personal certainty.
The duality of Gemini is expressed in every area of life. They embody the
ability to do more then one task at the same time, as well as the the difficulty
to commit in relationships. They have trouble with loyalty to one political
party (as the servant of two masters), and they tend to change moods, like the
wind changes direction and strength. That is why Geminis can be a different
person each day.A big part of anyone's spiritual journey of transformation is to get to know
themselves for who they really are, and understand and accept the unique
combination of their personality and traits. Learning what your sign means can
give you an important and valuable insight as to what your biggest challenge is,
so that you can transform it and uncover your biggest gift to the world, which
is, simply put, the other side of the same coin.
