The Segula of Rabbi Chaim Palagi on Rosh Chodesh Kislev

The Segula of Rabbi Chaim Palagi on Rosh Chodesh Kislev We know from the Mekubalim that, according to Jewish tradition, everything that comes first, like the beginning, contains within it the potential for everything that follows. The month of Kislev is known as the month of miracles, and whoever wishes to merit a miracle should always remain joyful and thank Hashem for everything. Therefore, the Sages advise praying on Rosh Chodesh Kislev with special fervor and with special prayers of thanksgiving. Rabbi Chaim Palagi taught that from the first of Kislev through the eighth day of Chanukah, there are 33 days. The great Mekubal from Izmir promised that whoever thanks Hashem for everything in their life and does not complain from Rosh Chodesh Kislev—the first of Kislev—through the eighth day of Chanukah will witness great miracles throughout the year.   During the 33 days from the first of Kislev through the eighth day of Chanukah, one should: 1. Recite Tehillim 100 twice a day and thank Hashem for everything. There are 43 words in Tehillim 100. Reciting Tehillim 100 twice gives a total of 86 words. 86 is the gematria of the word הללויה - “Hallelujah” (“praise G-d”). In addition, our website has noted that another prayer of thanksgiving, “Nishmat Kol Chai”, is also appropriate during these days. Why? Rosh Chodesh is an Et Ratzon (especially for women). We know that Rosh Chodesh Kislev always falls during the weekly Torah portion of “Toldot.” The weekly portion of “Toldot” contains the secret of “Nishmat Kol Chai.” More details here: Rosh Chodesh Kislev and the Mystery of “Nishmat Kol Chai” It is especially meritorious to make the Seudat Mitzvah (a meal with wine and meat) on this Rosh Chodesh and recite the prayer “Nishmat Kol Chai”.
