12 Sivan
12 סִיוָן
The Month of Sivan (סִיוָן)
Sivan is the month in which the Torah was given at Mount Sinai. Shavuot, the Festival of Weeks, falls on 6 Sivan and celebrates both the giving of the Torah and the first fruits harvest. The Torah was given to the entire nation — men, women, and children — making Sivan a month of unity and revelation. Tradition teaches that the entire world fell silent at the moment of revelation, and even the birds did not sing.

The Twins (Teomim) represent the dual nature of Torah — written and oral — given at Sinai during this month. In Kabbalistic thought, Sivan's mazal reflects the power of communication and the union of opposites. Those born under Teomim are intellectually gifted, versatile, and drawn to deep learning.
