Tu Bishvat Seder

  • Ner Shalom 85 La Plaza Cotati, CA, 94931 United States (map)

Led by Reb Irwin Keller and Shoshana Fershtman.

With joy and delight we move through the Four Worlds, honoring Tu Bishvat with music, poetry, symbolic fruits, and opportunities to make offerings for the renewal and regeneration of Mother Earth and our own souls. (We will send you a list of items to have at the ready.)

Tu Bishvat is a delightful eco-kabbalistic Holy Day honoring the New Year of the Trees. It is first recorded in Talmud and was a key celebration of the medieval mystics of Safed. Each year, we honor the rebirth of the Cosmic Tree of Life. We also celebrate and honor our Mother Earth, and the miraculous tree beings that support all life on the planet. And, as each of us is a tree of life connected to the Cosmic Tree, this is also an opportunity for our own rebirth and renewal.

To join us for the seder, use the link that was sent to you in an eBlast from Ner Shalom. If you are not on our email list and would like to be, sign up here.
