Kapparot. Mea Shearim, Jerusalem

Кapparot is a custom connected to Yom Kippur, where white chickens are waved over a person's head.

It is believed that one transfers one's sins from the past year into the chicken.

While circling the chicken around the head of the one being atoned for, one recites: “This is your substitute, replacement, atonement etc.”

After the Кapparot ritual is concluded, the chicken would be slaughtered.

Slaughtered is a symbolic gesture of atonement. The slaughtered chickens are then donated to the poor.

The Kaparot ceremony is held before the Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement
