Delivered to your email inbox (if you’re signed up) today was my exclusive lesson all about the Jewish Holiday of Lag BaOmer!

Bonfires, bows & arrows, and a little Hebrew magic 🔥✨

Lag BaOmer marks the 33rd day of counting the Omer and it’s a break in a traditionally quiet period.

In Israel, the night lights up with bonfires, laughter, and community 💫
It’s a celebration of resilience, unity, and light after darkness.

Thank you for all of the feedback on the email and enjoy the celebration wherever you are.

Chag Sameach 🤍

Today is Tu BiShvat ט״ו בִּשְׁבָט 🌳

The שְׁקֵדִיָּה (almond tree) blooms first each year — early, diligent, and alert.
In Hebrew, its root ש-ק-ד means to be attentive and quick to act.

Tu BiShvat reminds us: growth begins by showing up.

חג שמח 🌸💙
