55 Between: Day 5 (Thursday) | 8th Day of Unleavened Bread: Vegan Messiah's Meal

22 Nisan 5786 AM | 1 AVE. Eighth Day of Unleavened Bread. 

Blessed are You, LORD our God, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us by Your Spirit and invited the nations to share in the richness of Your Word. We thank You for the people and state of Israel, including the Messiah, our First Fruits, through whom the harvest of life has begun.

Today is the fifth day of the Omer according to the minority Sadducean count, which is 0 weeks and 5 days.

May the Spirit of Truth prepare my heart for the revelation of the 50th day.

Today is the Moshiach's Meal as instituted by the Baal Shem Tov. This could be the most important vegan seder in the entire Jewish calendar!

I don't have any grape juice or matzah this year - that will have to wait until next year - but I do plan to listen to The Mystical Moshiach Meal on the Last Day of Pesach from 5-6 PM while I am preparing and eating my evening salad.

The astrology for this evening's Mystical Moshiach Meal looks amazingly kosher. Mars will have just entered the zero degree of Aries. Neptune, Saturn, the Sun and Chiron are already in the sign. The Sun at 20 degrees Aries is conjunct my natal Mars.
