Rosh Hashana is the Jewish New Year, a feast day marking the Days of Awe, a period of reflection and repentance that runs up to Yom Kippur, the day of Atonement. Rosh Hashanah is on the first of the Jewish month of Tishrei (and on the day following -- it's traditionally a two-day holiday). All Jewish months begin on the new moon, and Tishrei usually begins within two weeks of Autumnal Equinox, sometimes before it, sometimes after.
