What It Is
The first of Tishri. The shofar is sounded, the Book of Life is opened, and ten days of return begin. 'Today the world was conceived.'
How to Observe It
Eat apples with honey for a sweet year. Consider: what would you write in the Book of your own year if you knew the pen was in your hand?
