Meaning of the name ירח
Yarach is an ancient and unique Hebrew name referring to the celestial body that illuminates the night sky - the moon. The name carries profound meaning of cyclicality, renewal, and illumination in darkness. In Hebrew and Jewish culture, the moon holds a central place as a symbol for measuring time, as the Hebrew calendar is lunisolar, with months determined by lunar cycles. The name Yarach appears in the Bible in several contexts, symbolizing one of the celestial bodies created by God, representing order and constancy in creation. The name Yarach carries a special poetic and romantic character. The moon is perceived in many cultures as a symbol of gentleness, delicacy, and comforting light in darkness. It represents the feminine and sensitive side of nature, in contrast to the sun which is perceived as masculine and powerful. In Hebrew and world literature, the moon serves as a metaphor for love, longing, and dreams. The name grants its bearer a sense of mystery and depth, of connection to natural forces and life cycles. In the modern context, the name Yarach has become more popular in recent years, especially among parents seeking unique names with deep meaning. The name is suitable for both genders, though more common as a masculine name. It conveys a sense of connection to nature, the heavens, and the mystery of the universe.

Origin of the name ירח from Kabbalah
In Kabbalah, the moon symbolizes the Sefirah of Malchut - the lowest Sefirah that receives light from the upper Sefirot and reflects it. Like the moon that does not shine by itself but reflects the sun's light, so Malchut receives divine abundance. The moon also represents the quality of constant renewal and change, the ability to adapt ourselves to different life cycles.
