Rosh Hashanah Opens the Page: Happy New Year

Rosh Hashanah opens to the page
On which is writ, for good or ill, our fate.
Still wrestling with angels, we engage,
Harrowing our hearts, our destined state.
However, "we" encompasses us all,
As though we were but droplets in a wave
Suspended on its journey to the shore,
Hard put to any single droplet save.
And so we pray not only for ourselves,
Nor only for our family, friends, or tribe:
All must be our congregation, else,
Having thus lost hope, we won't survive.

Happy New Year to all my family, friends and everyone!

Happy New Year! Rosh Hashanah 2011

The celebration of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, starts at sundown Wednesday, Sept. 28 and traditionally last for two days.

The holiday which translates to "head of the year" is both the Jewish New Year and days of repentance. It may seem unusual, but the New Year is actually not the first month in the Hebrew calendar, rather the first two days in the seventh month, known as Tishrei.

Rosh Hashanah takes place ten days before Yom Kippur, and many use this as a time of reflection known as the ten days of penitence, or aseret yamei teshuva. In that ten day period, many will apologize to those they have wronged and hope to find forgiveness. This assures when Yom Kippur, or Day of Atonement, comes ten days later, the person will not be left out of the Book of Life, where names of those destined for Heaven are written.

Happy New Year to all my family, friends and fans - I love you all!

By Rabbi Yossi

There is never a time like ‘right now’ to re-evaluate and take an accounting of one’s self. Each day is the beginning of a new year. Birthdays, anniversaries, relationships, religions, work, countries, trees, etc., each have established dates that begin their own “New Year.”

Rosh Hashanah literally translates as the “head” of the year. “Head” reflects thought and wisdom, making this a time for reflection. The Hebrew word for year is “shana,” which also means “change.” This month in the Hebrew calendar marks the seventh month since the time that the Jewish people came out of Egypt. It is a time for us to seriously reflect on our personal relationship with the Creator. It is a month full of days that are set aside, to reflect upon our continuing relationship and connection with the true source of all existence.
