Rosh Hashanah is a biblical holiday that means Head of the New Year which happens in the Fall. It is the beginning of a new year according to the biblical calendar as well as the beginning of the biblical Fall Feasts and High Holy Days. It is a very rich, meaningful time for self reflection, forgiveness, good deeds and new beginnings. Much like the secular New Year celebrated on January 31st.
Apples and honey are traditional foods eaten during Rosh Hashanah because it symbolizes sweetness. So people enjoy apples and honey in hopes for a “sweet” New Year.
