Prayer for the Molad (New Moon) of Tammuz
Wednesday night, at 10:37 pm, 4 Chalakim
Ribbono Shel Olam – Master of the World, Who can do everything, and that nothing can impede [Your] purpose from You, let me merit on the Molad of Tammuz – which will be on Wednesday night, the eve of Thursday, at 10:37 pm and 4 Chalakim, approximately two hours before Chatzot (Halachic midnight) – to receive the First Tablets anew.
Just as Moshe Rabbeinu brought the Torah on the 17
th of Tammuz, and now we are receiving the Torah anew every month of Tammuz, every single year anew.
And may we merit to know all of Shas, the 14 volumes of the Rambam, the four sections of the Shulchan Aruch, the Arba Turim, Beit Yosef, Bach, Sma, Shach, Magen Avraham, Taz, Chelkat Mechokek, Rabbeinu Shmuel, Maggid Mishneh, Lechem Mishneh, Mishneh LaMelech, Kesef Mishneh, Hagahot Maymoniyot, Rabbeinu Mano’ach, Mahari Korkos, Hagahot HaRamach, Mesilat Yesharim, Shaarei Teshuvah, Orchot Tzaddikim, Kav HaYashar, Shevet Musar, Pele Yoetz, Menorat HaMaor, Noda BeYehudah, Sefat Emet, Zera Kodesh, Rabbeinu Akiva Eger, Rashba, Ramban, Ritva, Yad Ramah, Beit Meir on Even HaEzer, Likutey Moharan, Likutey Halachot, Sippurei Ma’asiot, Likutey Eitzot – all word for word, letter by letter, by heart.
And may I escape from all my desires in the month of Tammuz, and from ga’avah (pride), and from the klipah (evil husk) of Haman-Amalek, which is the klipah of ga’avah, which is the secret of the name of the month of Tammuz – “And all of this means nothing to me.”
