Havdalah is a ritual that takes place at the end of Shabbat
(Jewish Sabbath)
Just as candles are lit to welcome Shabbat on Friday evenings, havdalah (Hebrew for “separation”) marks the end of Shabbat and separates it from regular weekdays.
Shabbat has ended and it is time for havdalah when three stars appear in the night sky.
A havdalah candle is a braided candle with several wicks that is usually about 12 inches long.
A child or a woman often holds it while it is lit, then it is placed in a special candle holder that fits its thin, oblong shape.
The flame of the candle symbolizes the separation between the spiritual world and the material world. It also represents the first light of Creation, renewed energy for the upcoming week and new beginnings. |
