Erev Rosh Hashana
- Some have the custom to fast on the day before rosh hashana. [1]
- Tachanun is not recited on Erev Rosh Hashana in Shacharit, even though during selichot of that morning we do recite the yud gimmel middot and the nefilat apayim. However, tachanun is recited the mincha before erev rosh hashana. [2]
- We do not blow the shofar on erev rosh hashana and if one needs to practice blowing for the holiday, he should do so in a private room. [3]
- The custom is to dip in a mikveh on erev rosh hashana in honor of rosh hashana, however this isn't required according to the law and therefore a beracha isn't recited and the laws aren't as strict. [4] If one cannot make it to a mikveh, he should try to spill 9 kav (approximately 12 liters) of water even if in the shower. [5]
- A woman within her seven clean days from niddah shouldn't go to the mikveh on erev rosh hashana or erev yom kippur. [6]
- The custom is to do hatarat nedarim on erev rosh hashana and erev yom kippur. [7]
