====

WHEN THE MOON IS COMPLETELY REDUCED, THEN SHE COMES CLOSEST TO THE SUN.

And when she is most full, then she is farthest from the sun.

So too with man.

> When he is completely diminished, then he has a broken heart, and so he’s closest to Hashem.

And when he is full, he is full of ga’avah (pride/arrogance) and then he is farthest from Hashem.
