When a person secludes himself and speaks his piece and his woes to God, confessing and regretting the enormity of the blemishes that he committed then, likewise the Shechinah faces him, speaking Her piece and Her woes and consoling him. This is because every blemish that a person makes in his soul he makes in the Shechinah. This is the aspect of "You declared to God...and God has declared to you..." (Deuteronomy 26:17-18). Thus, She consoles him by letting him know that She will seek strategies to correct all blemishes -Likutey Moharan #259 Who would have known that the very fix to all of your issues is Teshuvah, the very act of repenting allows the Shechinah to devise a plan for you so she and you will never have that blemish again. It is very important to note that the more consistent you are the greater the increase and the quicker you will see solutions. Return with quick feet and a heart full of passion. Baruch Hashem for allowing us to understand these concepts.

"When Adar enters we increase in joy" (Ta’anit, 29a)

Esther concealed her identity (Esther 2:10).Concealment and hiddenness has a holy root. As women we have been made to feel like our hiddenness is a negative trait. The greatest of women in the Torah had much to hide, secrets upon secrets. We demand our rights, and demand to be heard, and what has that gotten us. We lost our sovereignty, we gained brazenness, braun and external attributes that have not served our Soul Mission which is the silent, contemplative, modest and wise Oracle inside us. There is nothing wrong with the externalized feminine but she is more destructive than the masculine when she is not in balance with her true inner self. We see that Esther, the Queen of Our Time, and the One to Emulate in our Life, was a 'hidden women' and she hid her true self on purpose for the sake of something very big..... Redemption! You know a mind that is silent and still has much time to contemplate and think about how to proceed in perilous situations. We live in those perilous times now. You see in movies the oracles are always inside their tents, reclusive dedicated to contemplation and meditation.... this is for a reason. When we have this stillness and seclusion we learn how to effectively guide our life and even world events in a way that is good for all. Kind of like a captain of a ship, he must use his intellect, intuition and his higher connections to guide the ship safely to its destiny. We have that ability! Esther never left her ‘place’ in her palace, everything she did was in a hidden, concealed state. She was not only able to lead her People to redemption she simultaneously with a one-two-punch re-inverted the evil Ha-Man, who in a great paradox hung his own self on the very ‘tree’ that he had built to hang ‘Mordecai’ who by the way is Yesod Abba for those who know. This is a tale of Yesod Abba and the Great Daughter in secret! It is also the only Torah story that HaShem’s name is not mentioned one time, but if you look it is there! It is hidden. The 10 chapters in the Megillah are equal to the 10 sephirot which makes up the Name Code of G-d itself.

Just wanted to add something... The Talmud (Sukkah 29a) calls a solar eclipse a bad omen for the world. Kabbalistically, this represents a reduction in divine illumination or 'Tzimtzum'. 𝑇𝑧𝑖𝑚𝑡𝑧𝑢𝑚 ), where the "light" (revelation of God) is hidden, symbolizing a moral decline or a need for the world to return to a higher spiritual state. This is also happening right here and now for Rosh Chodesh Adar! The Hidden Light! The Sages tell us that a Solar Eclipse is a time when the 'world' should do Teshuvah! Especially regarding societal issues and honoring spiritual leaders. So let us do Teshuvah for the world! That the concealment of G-d's holy light be brief!
