(Hakhel) As Monday night/ Tuesday is Purim Katan, we must remember that Chazal in Mesechta Megillah raise the question as to which 14 Adar is to be observed as Purim–the 14th of Adar I or the 14th of Adar II.  We know how the Halacha resolves the issue–by putting the Geulah of Purim into Adar II, which is closer to the Geulah of Pesach. Otherwise, it is not a simple issue at all! We must appreciate and understand the inherent Kochos of the day.  May we suggest that in addition to feeling the Simcha of the day, that we recite Tehillim Chapter 22, which is what Esther recited BeRuach Hakodesh as she attempted to enter the presence of Achashveirosh.
