It’s the final night of Hanukkah, when the light burns the brightest. It’s especially timely today as we head into a difficult year. Hanukkah calls us to work. To bring as much light as we can into a world with growing darkness.
Let’s fill the timeline with light. Show me your 8th night menorahs.

Love the sentiment of your post though. Lots of darkness approaching. Need all the light we can get.
Done!
I have seen ones online attributed as Polish, that time frame
WOW. I'll tell Mr Dr Science's family
🥰🥰🥰
Something folks of any religion could aspire to. 💙

It's called "Tree of Life" and seemed very appropriate when my kids were little. We also had this adorable ceramic Noah's ark. The shamash alway melted way too quickly. Cute, but impractical. Such is life.

It was also my first real Chanukah with my new family and watching a kid enjoy it the first time is ✨
Here’s a picture of last nights enchilatkes instead (we had to use cottage cheese because the sour cream I *just* bought was extremely spoiled).
If you share one with alt I can repost it ☺️
To a new year, may it be a beautiful one against all odds.
Thanks for sharing!
All I have for this year is night 1.
Next year in... somewhere enlightened. https://bsky.app/profile/greggjlevine.bsky.social/post/3le6ktcu3h22z
(they’re all beautiful!)
Started a new thing this year; used a candle from last year as my Shamash for the first night this year. Gives me a new way to honour continuity.
You can use anything to light the shamash.
I dont know enough about the traditions to make any other comment, it was just to lovely to just pass by though 💜

May we all carry this light in our hearts and protect it as we head into the dark.

Now, I'll go and read about Hanukkah and menorahs.
