Well, off to the final set of Jewish holidays of the season—Shmini Atzeret and Simchat Torah—see you in 48 hours. Then we get the Digging Out period. I ought to be caught up around…Thanksgiving. Chag Sameach to everyone who celebrates. Be good to each other!
Tonight begins Shmini Atzeret, the holiday during which we begin to pray for the winter rains.
A reminder of our interdependence with the Earth, of the holy urgency of climate justice, and the importance of gratitude for all the gifts we are given today.
