Root yourself in sacred time, moon by moon.

The Hebrew calendar invites us to live in rhythm — with nature, with ancient wisdom, and with our own lives. Each month opens a new spiritual doorway, anchored not just in tradition, but in the turning of the moon.

Whether you're planning Jewish holidays, gathering with others to celebrate Rosh Chodesh, or simply longing for a deeper sense of time, this guide is for you.

Below, you’ll find a complete list of Hebrew months for 2025, 2026, and 2027 — including the full date range for each one. It’s a tool for planning, yes. But more than that, it’s a gentle invitation to mark time with intention, and to remember that each month offers its own kind of wisdom.

May these dates help you return to what matters most — reflection, connection, and the sacred cycle of becoming.

Why Does the Hebrew Calendar Shift Each Year?

The Jewish calendar is lunar-solar, meaning it’s based on both the cycles of the moon and the sun. Most years are 12 months long, but about every 3 years, an extra leap month is added — Adar I — to realign the calendar with the seasons.

This keeps Passover in spring, Rosh Hashanah in fall, and the rhythm of Jewish holidays grounded in their natural, seasonal context.

How to Use This Guide

• Schedule Rosh Chodesh gatherings like a Well Circle or new moon circle
• Start a Hebrew calendar ritual, such as journaling or blessing the new month
• Sync your personal practice with the deeper cycles of time
