# shevat

noun

«shevat» in the English dictionary: in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## In Jewish tradition

In Sefer Yetzirah, Shevat is the month linked with the letter Tzadi. Its sign is Aquarius, the water-bearer.

**Interpretation.** Shevat holds Tu BiShvat, the New Year of the Trees, and the book ties each month to one letter and one body part.

### Meaning

The name of the fifth month of the Hebrew calendar, around January and February. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/S/shevat/#m1)
