Blow a trumpet in Zion;
sound an alarm on my holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble,
for the day of the Lord is coming; it is near. (Joel 2:1)
Teshuvah means "return" or "repent". Yom Teruah (Day of the Trumpet Blast) begins the 10 days of repentance (some say the 10 days of Awe) leading up to the holiest day of the year for Jews all over the world:
Yom Kippur

Not certain if this is true, concerning the livestream of 100 trumpets sounding out across Israel and the world, but just in case:

👆It was a ram caught in a thicket by his horn. The ram was offered as a sacrifice -- not the ram's horn.
We prepare the way for You, Yeshua our Messiah/Jesus of Nazareth.
We stand just outside of Your gates, our lanterns full of Your fine oil, Spirit of Truth.
We rend our hearts before You, not our garments.
We have bathed in Your living water, and robed our souls in Your blood-stained garments of sacrifice.
We Stand ready to join You, at Your table.
In sincere repentance, understanding our unworthiness, we anxiously await the final trumpet heralding Your arrival.
Oh come to us once more, Immanuel.
Come quickly, our long awaited King.
Be WITH us!
