Kislev is an autumn month which occurs in November--December on the Gregorian calendar and is sometimes known as the month of dreams . The name of the month may be taken from Akkadian kislimu, which means "inspissated, thickened" due to plentiful rains . But the name may also derive from the Hebrew root K-S-L as in the words "kesel, kisla" (hope, positiveness) or "ksil" (Orion, a constellation that shines especially in this month) because of the expectation and hope for rains . </P>
