Section: Questions Category: Halacha TAGS:mikva Halacha - Mikvaot | Submitted by Adi Salama Answered by Rav Peretz Moncharsh | Question: Is any natural body of water kosher for a lady to tovel in? Are there any special halahot or practical rules to be aware of when using such a place to tovel in as oppose to a regular mikveh?
| Answer: Not necessarily. For example, a lake filled primarily with rainwater with an outlet is flowing non-spring water and is pasul because of zochalim. The Halachos of mikvaos are very complicated and it is advisable to only use a mikva under reliable supervision.
