Frequently Asked Questions About Rosh Chodesh Iyar
Iyar falls entirely within the Omer counting period and contains several significant days: Pesach Sheni (14th), Lag BaOmer (18th), and Yom Yerushalayim (28th). In Israel, Yom HaZikaron (4th) and Yom HaAtzma'ut (5th) also fall in Iyar. The month is associated with healing — the Hebrew letters of Iyar are an acronym for 'Ani Hashem Rofecha' (I am God your healer).
Standard Rosh Chodesh prayers are recited: half Hallel, Ya'aleh V'Yavo, the Torah reading, and Musaf. Since Rosh Chodesh Iyar falls during the Omer period, the Omer counting continues at evening services. The semi-mourning customs of the Omer remain in effect on Rosh Chodesh itself.
