The new moon was seen by the unaided eye on July 11, 2021, at 19:59 by myself and the Matityahu family of four called and reported seeing the moon tonight from Jerusalem as well.
It was a very easy sighting on a super warm night! Not much to mention it was a 30 day month. According to the Biblical Calendar based on the seven firstfruits offerings we have entered the 6th month. How appropriate the grapes and figs are coming on strong! In a month the first of the rimon aka pomegranates will be showing up for Yom Teruah.
