Adar is the last month of the year and the month of true identity. Through connecting to our true identity are then able to integrate our entire year. We can only integrate the entirety of our experience by getting out of our “monkey mind” and truly connecting to the experience of Life. We do this through the holiday of the month, Purim when we drink wine and become intoxicated in holiness. “When the wine goes in, secrets come out”. On Purim we also dress up and put on masks. We all wear various masks in life. When we become aware of them, and consciously put on one specific mask, we are able to actually reveal a deeper, truer identity. Adar is also the month of ‘laughter’, which is the manifest experience of realizing that not everything is as it seems, and that life is joyous and humorous. Laughter reminds us not to take life too seriously. When we do all the above, then we are able to ‘remember’ the experiences of our year and, from a place that is deeper than the level of ‘mind’, integrate our year.
