The Jewish Holiday Cycle (in a nutshell)
Pesach - being from nothing, being born.
Shabbos - Creator/purpose of creation - being w/Creator, not being creators. Not working, but rather receiving.
Omer - character development
Shavuos - receiving the definitions of "right and wrong."
Rosh HaShana - consequences of right and wrong.
Yom Kippur - the ability to rectify wrong.
Sukkos - rejoicing in the victory of right over wrong, truth over falsehood.
Shemini Atzeres - Nothing left to do but hand out with the King, your Father, who loves you, and celebrate by remembering, gathering in, all the good days of the holiday season.
