Rosh Hashanah is a major two-day Jewish observance marking the religious New Year on Tishri 1, falling in September or October. It is one of four new years in Judaism, but by far the most significant. Rosh Hashanah inaugurates a 10-day period of self-examination and penitence—called the Ten Days of Repentance, the Days of Awe, or the High Holy Days—that ends on Yom Kippur on Tishri 10.
