Based on the sighting of the new moon on Sep 15 the Biblical dates for the holidays will be as follows:
Yom Teruah: sunset Sep 15 to sunset Sep 16
Yom Kippur: sunset Sep 24 to sunset Sep 25
Sukkot Day 1: sunset Sep 29 to sunset Sep 30
Shemini Atzeret: sunset Oct 6 to sunset Oct 7.

Shemini Atzeret - Translation: "The eighth [day] of Assembly"

Atzeret: A day for assembly—or pause

Spiritually, Shemini Atzeret can also be seen to "guard the seven days of Sukkot".[9] The Hebrew word atzeret is generally translated as "assembly"

John 7,37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. 38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
