Rosh Hashanah is a two-day celebration, which begins on the first day of Tishrei. Tishrei is the first month of the Jewish civil year, but the seventh month of the ecclesiastical year.
The central observance of Rosh Hashanah is the sounding of the shofar, the ramâs horn, on both days of the holiday (except if the first day is Shabbat, in which case we blow the shofar only on the second day).
