Nine Days!
     The Nine Days… the time to recall our Temples that were destroyed on the Ninth of Av, an inopportune time for the Jewish People. What can we do to make these days useful? We can lift them. We are to find ways to be happy within the ways of morning. For instance; having guests for Shabbos. That makes us happy. And charity. We are certainly allowed to give charity during the Nine days, and when we give charity the person we are giving it to, and the person giving it, become happy. A good way to water the thirsty garden, to ease the load.

Embracing the Pain
It's been a while since I was able to share anything. Instead of continuing where I left off with a book review, I'm sharing what my journey has been this past month and my #musings along the way. In short: The King is coming. (IYKYK) #RoshHashanah
Three weeks ago, my father was rushed to the hospital due to severe swelling, weeping of the skin, traumatic ulcers, and pain in his left leg. A few days later, he underwent an arterial bypass where they inserted a stent. Essentially, as I confirmed with a RN friend, he had a “heart attack” of the leg. During this time, my main concern other than supporting him by being present as often as I…

9 Av reflections 5783 - OY!
I have always struggled with the concept of a communal day of mourning. What if I am not feeling that sense of sadness that is required to truly experience the day? Does that make me unfeeling, uncaring? Am I separating myself from the community in moments when I can’t conjure up the emotional pain and suffering that comes from taking on signs of mourning on this day? Sure, we have found ways…

Tisha B`Av/9th of Av, 5783/2023
Historically, the date has resulted in heartache for the Jewish people. Here is a list of Jewish history on the 9th of Av/Tisha B `Av.
Tisha B`Av or the 9th of Av… Av is a Hebrew month. It is the 11th month of the civil calendar or the 5th month of the religious calendar.

Thousands ascend Temple Mount on Tisha B’Av
Thousands ascend Temple Mount on Tisha B’Av
Police detain three Jewish and a number of Muslim worshippers on the Mount for “disturbing the peace,” declaring that Israel has “no intention of allowing any provocations.” (August 7, 2022 / JNS) More than 2,000 Jews ascended the Temple Mount in Jerusalem on Sunday to mark Tisha B’Av, the fast day that began the night before that commemorates the destruction of the two biblical temples. The…

It’s Tisha Ba’Av.
This night through tomorrow night we commemorate the destruction of both Batei Mikdash, traditionally through fasting.  Anyone who is able is encouraged to fast on this holiday, in remembrance of the tragedy that befell Jerusalem centuries ago.  
However, fasting takes a toll on the body, and it can be dangerous.  The halakha does not require anyone to fast for whom it would be life-threatening to do so.  Whether or not you fast is a personal decision, but even if you choose not to fast, there are still ways you can observe the holiday and connect to it.  
Alternatives to Fasting
Daven.  Attend prayer services at your local shul, with a minyan, or simply bilvad (solo prayer).  Try to pray all three services to mark the occasion, and focus on themes relating to destruction, exile, and, hopefully, redemption (speedily, and in our days)!  
Read Eicha.  Even if you haven’t attended a service to hear the book of Lamentations read with a congregation, you can still read it yourself!  Read it in English or Hebrew, or in any other language.  You could also try pronouncing the trope, or listening to a recording.  Here’s a recording from Chabad.org of how the book of Eicha sounds when read in a service.  
Learn the History.  Go online, on wikipedia or whatever, or go to a library and find some books about the history of the Jews, especially the Babylonian exile and the Roman Period.  The first temple was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 B.C.E., and the second was destroyed by the Romans in 70 C.E.  Memorize those dates!  Use that as a starting point to learn more about the history of our people.  
(Disclaimer: None of these activities can halakhically excuse you from the obligation of fasting.  To be officially excused from the commandment for health reasons you must consult with a Rabbi.  This list is just made up of my suggestions for ways to spiritually connect with the holiday even if you are not planning on fasting, or even if you are, you can still do these things.)
Further Reading on Tisha Ba’Av: 
What is Tisha BAv?  - A concise article by Chabad that explains the tradition and practices surrounding the holiday.  
The Laws of Tisha B’Av -  This page thoroughly explains all the rules and laws of Tisha B’Av, including many specific halakhic situations.

From Despair to Hope: Seven Weeks until the Rosh Hashanah
From Despair to Hope: Seven Weeks until the Rosh Hashanah
What can we do to change our mindset from feeling the sense of divine distance to divine nearness? What is the path to be ready to “greet the King in the field” which is a theme of the month of Elul, the month preceding Rosh Hashanah? Yesterday was the commemoration known as Tisha B’Av (usually falling out on the 9th day of the Hebrew calendar month Av but due to the 9th being Shabbat, the fast…

What's Tu B'Av?
What’s Tu B’Av?
  Tu B’Av is a minor but fun Jewish holiday. After the mourning of Tisha B’Av, this is a lovely little day to be happy and to celebrate love.
Tu B’Av = Fifteenth of the Month of Av. In Hebrew, the letters that form the number 15 can also be pronounced “Tu.”
Today in Israel, it’s called Chag HaAhavah, the Holiday of Love, and it’s a favored day for weddings. Think of it as Jewish Valentine’s Day.
