The full guide for the month of Nissan
This special prayer should be recited on Erev Rosh Chodesh Nissan.
This year it will be Wednesday, March 18th (2026)
BUT if you missed the time, it can still be recited during the month of Nissan!
This prayer is to show gratitude to G-d for everything he does for us!!
The prayer is very short and after we recite three (3) chapters of Tehilim.
The prayer and Tehilim can be found on this page both in Hebrew and English. A downloadable PDF of the prayer is also available on that page.
Since it’s Erev Rosh Chodesh we have the custom to fast. If one doesn’t not want to fast, you can redeem the fast with charity in the value of a days worth of food.

A once in a year opportunity – The Blessing of Flowering Fruit Trees in the Spring Season. When the spring (Aviv) season arrives, a blessing is traditionally said when one is in view of at least two flowering fruit trees.
This prayer is best to recite on Rosh Chodesh, but one can recite it during the entire month of Nissan.
This year Rosh Chodesh Nissan is on Thursday, March 19th (2026)
If you missed Rosh Chodesh, the next recommended time to recite the blessing is during Chol Hamoed Pesach.
In the mean time, please take the time to watch the following video and learn all about this amazing Mitzvah. And for more information click the button below.
The portable sanctuary built by the Israelites in the Sinai Desert—known as the Mishkan or “Tabernacle”—was inaugurated on the first day of the Hebrew month of Nissan of the year 2449 from creation (1312 BCE). Beginning on that day, and continuing through the first twelve days of Nissan, the tribal leader—the Nasi—of each of the twelve tribes of Israel brought inaugural offerings as the representative of his tribe.
It is our custom to commemorate the Mishkan’s inauguration each year by reading, on each of these twelve days, the verses from the Torah which describe the offerings of that day’s Nasi. These verses are traditionally read after the morning prayers, but can be recited anytime throughout the day.
On the thirteenth of Nissan we read the totals of all the sacrifices, and then read about the kindling of the Tabernacle’s menorah—the contribution of the priestly tribe of Levi (which was not counted, for this purpose, among the 12 tribes). The “May it be Your will . . .” prayer is not recited on this day.
