The Month of Adar (אֲדָר)
"When Adar enters, joy increases" (Mishnah Ta'anit 29a). Adar is the happiest month in the Hebrew calendar, marked by the festival of Purim on the 14th. The Book of Esther recounts how Queen Esther and Mordechai saved the Jewish people from Haman's decree. It is a month of reversals — of turning sorrow to joy, mourning to celebration. Adar is the last month before Nisan and the arrival of spring, making it a month of anticipation and preparation for redemption.

The Fish (Dagim) represent blessing, fertility, and hiddenness — just as fish are hidden beneath the water, protected from the evil eye. In Torah thought, Adar's mazal is connected to the hidden miracles of Purim. Those born under Dagim are blessed with joy, adaptability, and the ability to thrive even in challenging circumstances.
