Join us for Ritualwell’s inaugural monthly Rosh Hodesh experience! Each month, from October through June, we will gather virtually for ritual and writing in a creative-spiritual liminal space. We will be guided by the ancient Jewish tradition of welcoming each month with the emergence of the new moon. We will honor the wisdom and practices of our foremothers, recalling that Rosh Hodesh has historically been a sacred time for women—and celebrating those women who our tradition lifts up throughout the year—while raising a tent that is wide enough for all who wish to enter. At each gathering, participants will be invited to contribute a short song, prayer, meditation, niggun, poem, story, kavannah, or drash dedicated to the emerging month, followed by teaching, discussion, and writing prompts led by Sivan Rotholz, a ritualist, community builder, and professor of gynocentric Torah and creative writing who believes deeply in the magic of the new moon. People of all genders and backgrounds are welcome. No previous ritual, writing, or Rosh Hodesh experience necessary.
