Rosh Chodesh is the beginning of a new month in the Jewish calendar. It is based on when the moon starts being seen again in the skies, after a period of retreat.

According to Jewish tradition, when the men in the desert decided to build a Golden Calf, the women refused to participate in the creation of an idol. It is because of their refusal that they were given Rosh Chodesh as their special holiday.

 

Today, across the USA and all around the world, many women get together on Rosh Chodesh for study and prayer, for socializing and spiritual renewal. At the Family Chavurah, we have the chance to discuss with other women topics that are dear to us. In a safe environment, we learn, talk, cry and laugh together, celebrating the sacred bond and solidarity we share.
