Rosh Hashanah, observed worldwide, is the Jewish New Year celebrated on the first and second days of Tishrei, marking the anniversary of the creation of Adam and Eve. This holiday typically falls in September or October according to the Gregorian calendar. Customs include eating symbolic foods such as apples and honey for a sweet new year, pomegranates representing the 613 commandments of the Torah, and round challah bread symbolizing the cycle of the year. A significant ritual is the blowing of the shofar, a ram's horn, during synagogue services. Additionally, on the first day, many Jews perform the tashlikh ritual, where they cast off sins by throwing breadcrumbs or pebbles into flowing water.
