Happy Rosh Hashannah ~~ Rosh HaShanna 5780 (aka 2019) -- May You, May Your Everyone, Always...

I am copying the following from Melissa:

We celebrate Rosh Hashanah with sweet foods, such as apples dipped in honey, and honey cake, as a wish for a sweet year. Some families also celebrate with symbolic foods like the head of a fish, pomegranates, and carrots.

The head of a fish is so that we can be "like the head and not like the tail." This is a symbol of having a year in which we are on top and not the bottom. Pomegranates are symbolic of plenty. Have you ever tried to count how many seeds there are in a pomegranate? Far too many to count. We want plenty of health and happiness for the New Year, just as many good things as there are seeds in a pomegranate.

We also eat carrots, and it isn't just to see better in the dark. For Ashkenazi Jews, carrots symbolize the Yiddish word "merren" which also means more. We want more of all the good things in life. More health, more happiness, more success. For Sephardic Jews, carrots are symbolic of the phrase "Yikaretu oyveychem" which means may your enemies be cut down. We ask that those who wish bad for us not get their wish, that they don't succeed.

And of course, we have round Challot made with honey and raisins. These are another symbol of a sweet and happy year. We put decorations on the Challot, such as birds (symbolizing doves of peace).

Rosh Hashanah starts on the first day of Tishrei and lasts two days. Rosh Hashanah is the beginning of the Yamim Noraim, the ten days of atonement.

On Rosh Hashanah, all mankind is judged. HaShem writes the judgment for each of us in the Book of Life. This judgment is based on our lives of the year before and is the decision of what will happen to us in the coming year.

But the judgment is not final. The days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur give us a time to change the judgment for good. We are given the chance to improve our coming year through Teshuvah (asking forgiveness), Tefillah (prayer), and Tzedakah (charity).

On Rosh HaShanah, we wish each other "L'Shanah Tovah Tikatevuh" may you be written in for a good year. But Rosh HaShanah is not the end of the judgment, it is only on Yom Kippur that our judgment is made final.

Everyone in the Universe will be judged this coming Tuesday and Wednesday.

Each person's judgment for the coming year is inscribed in the "Book of Life." One's judgment is not sealed until Yom Kippur, the Day of Return and Repentance, the following week. It's amazing how that ten days can lead to so much really focused thinking. I'm praying for me, my family, and my friends, for all our government officials, and for the lots and lots of good people everywhere. We can easily cover the known universe that way...;)) Yes, exponentials are very powerful...;))

In Honor of Rosh Hashanah "Head of The year" Which Marks the Creation Of The Universe, I am giving you An Amazing Gift From an Unknown Artist (I am only a humble conduit.)
It has given me much pleasure. Let me know if you know the artist!!! If you know who created these delightful and amazing photos please tell me. I have tried to find that inventive artist and crafts-person for more than a year!!!
Actually, it's been about nine years...;-)
