<div>This coming week, an unsuspecting person wishing to catch a <em>minyan</em>, who walks into a random
<em>shul </em>in many places around the world, might be in for a surprise. After the
<em>Shemoneh</em> <em>Esrei</em> prayer on Sunday there will be no <em>Tachanun</em>. On Monday there will be
<em>Selichos</em>; and on Thursday there again won’t be <em>Tachanun</em>! Why would this be? No
<em>Tachanun</em> generally signifies that it is a festive day<a href="https://ohr.edu/5146#_edn1" name="_ednref1" title="" id="LPlnk259464" previewremoved="true">[1]</a>; yet, no other observances are readily noticeable. As for the reciting of
<em>Selichos</em> on Monday, they are usually reserved for a fast day; yet no one seems to be fasting! What is going on?</div>
