Kislev is the third month of the Hebrew year (or the ninth month when counting from Nissan). Like all Hebrew months, the name Kislev is of Babylonian origin, corresponding to the constellation of the Archer (Sagittarius), visible in the night sky during this lunar month. Kislev usually overlaps the solar months of November and December.
