Metaphysical meaning of Nisan (mbd)

Metaphysical meaning of Nisan (mbd)
Nisan, ni-san (Heb.)--new day; newness; glittering; sparkling; verdant; blooming; month of flowers; month of green ears.

The first month of the Jewish ecclesiastical year (Neh. 2:1; Esth. 3:7). It is called Abib in the books of Exodus and Deuteronomy (see Exod. 13:4 and Deut. 16:1).

Meta. The springing forth of new ideas into consciousness; also their coming into expression and manifestation (new day, verdant, blooming, month of green ears). The sprouting, budding, growing, and coming to fruition of vegetable life on the earth is always a miracle to us; much more marvelous are the resurrection of new ideas in our mind and their development, expression, and ultimate manifestation in our organism and in our outer affairs.
