Avi Dwek asked 5 years ago

Hi rabbi, I was listening to your shiur on the month of shevat, I know that the main element associated with the Mazal of דלי is air, so how is it possible for it to be earth which is associated with Capricorn, virgo, and taurus

Shalom, A wonderful reference for this topic R. Matityahu Glazerszons' Beyond the Zodiac which clarifies this concept for you. Basically Shvat/Dli is the Left or Gevura aspect of Air and the Hesed and Tiferet aspect is Tishrei and Sivan respectively. So the months connecting to Earth are Tevet*next month* during hanukah Hesed Iyar -Gevurah*think L'ag B'omer and finally Elul Tiferet --Slichot... hope this helps.. Best Wishes and Hanuka Sameach!
