BLESSING OF THE NEW MOON Kiddush Levana, the Blessing of the New Moon, is said between the third day and the middle day of each month. If possible, it should be said at the end of Shabbat, under the open sky, and in the presence of a minyan. See law 471. abba Halleluya! Praise the LORD from the heavens, praise Him in Ps. 148 the heights. Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His hosts. Praise Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all shining stars. Praise Him, highest heavens and the waters above the heavens. Let them praise the name of the LORD, for He commanded and they were created. He established them for ever and all time, issuing a decree that will never change. “IND When I see Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon Ps.8 and the stars which You have set in place: What is man that You are mindful of him, the son of man that You care for him? *771 am prepared and ready to fulfill the commandment of blessing the new moon, for the sake of the unification of the Holy One, blessed be He, and His Divine Presence, through that One who is hidden and transcendent, in the name of all Israel. Look at the moon, then say: ‘1113 Blessed are You, LORD our God, King of the Universe who by His word created the heavens, and by His breath all their host. He set for them laws and times, so that they should not deviate from their appointed task. They are joyous and glad to perform the will of their Owner, the Worker of truth whose work is truth. To the moon He said that it should renew itself as a crown of beauty for those He carried from the womb [Israel], for they are destined to be renewed like it, and to praise their Creator for the sake of His glorious majesty. Blessed are You, LORD, who renews the months. The following five verses are each said three times: Blessed is He who formed you; blessed is He who made you; blessed is He who owns you; blessed is He who created you. The following verse is said rising on the toes. Just as I leap toward you but cannot touch you, so may none of my enemies be able to touch me to do me harm.
