Passover (among other things) is a time to...
- gather your tribe
- eat symbols and discuss metaphors
- honor the past by remembering it
- search by candlelight for what has fermented, collect it with a feather, and burn it all down to ash
- make room at the table for pleasant surprises
- undertake a ritual journey from slavery to liberation and exodus
- drink wine
- tell stories of pyramids, plagues, babies found among reeds, Egyptian princes, river-crossings, mountaintop revelations, and animal sacrifice
- ask questions
- welcome and embrace the light that increasingly floods each day
- celebrate the importance of children, ancestors and taking action
- read backwards
- pool blessings and pray
