Five days before Rosh Hashanah, we have a special window in time known as the Day of Creation. Michael Berg shares that the Day of Creation is the day that God created time and space, Light and darkness. This day, then, is the seed of the seed level of reality. The kabbalistic calendar works in cycles, so every year on the 25th of Virgo (Elul) the energy of the first day of Creation is available for all humankind to tap into. It is a day on which we can, through the power of our consciousness, draw that creative power into our own lives.
