summary

Shovavim is a Hebrew acronym for a series of Torah portions read in the winter-time (with two additional weeks during a leap year). Over this period of time, the Kabbalists instruct this to be a propitious season to focus on character improvement and to seek repentance, especially for matters relating to sexuality.
