The name derives from the Sanskrit term "dipavali," meaning "a row or series of lights," symbolizing the spiritual victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. An Absolute Comm IMO π₯
Dang I sure hope so.
Exactly - it's a "festival of light". Where I live on latitude 52N it gets dark early with long cold nights. Places like this always have traditions of plenty of lights going on. It's not long until our traditional firework event on November 5. The more lights the better I say.
That sounds lovely 007...π

This should be interesting, because another Festival of Lights is coming up in December, which President Trump had participated in every year in his first Term. This one celebrates the triumph of the outnumbered Maccabees over tyrannical Syrian forces, and an eight day celebration of restoring the temple!

Hanukkah 2025 begins at sundown on Sunday, December 14, and ends at nightfall on Monday, December 22, 2025.
Also, Bill of Rights Day is December 15, 1791, so we'll have a few things to celebrate in December! :)
