The new moon of the 6th Hebrew month was seen on the evening of 18 July 2023.

The new moon of the 6th Hebrew month was seen on the evening of 18 July 2023. The evening of 16 August 2023 marks the 30th day of the 6th Hebrew month. The new moon of the 7th Hebrew month is expected to be seen on the evening of 17 August 2023. Because a Hebrew month cannot surpass 30 days, the evening of 17 August 2023 will be the beginning of the 7th Hebrew month, regardless of the sighting of the new moon (from the land of Israel).

This means that Yom Teruah begins on the evening of 17 August 2023, regardless of whether or not the new moon is sighted from the land of Israel. Please see the finalized feast chart (at top of this page) for official 7th month feast dates!
