Rosh Hashanah, literally “head of the year”, is the Jewish New Year and one of the Jewish people’s holiest of days. Rosh Hashanah, which occurs on the first and second days of the Hebrew month of Tishrei (September ā€“ October), also celebrates the world’s creation.
The Jewish New Year celebration has little in common with the secular celebration of New Years Day in January. The traditions and rituals of Rosh Hashanah are not associated with partying and fireworks. It is actually a day for contemplation, reflection, and self-evaluation. They reinforce the notion of our responsibility for our life, our conduct and our actions.
Following Rosh Hashanah, Jews also celebrate the holidays of Yom Kippur, Sukkot, and Simchat Torah!
