Hatsumoude

Hatsumoude

Konnichiwa from Watson!

Today, I would like to introduce you one of the Japanese traditional culture for new year.

That is calling "HATSUMOUDE".
Hatsumoude is the first visit to a shrine in the year.

So many Japanese are going to shrine/temple on 01-03Jan and pray to become a good year.
And Japanese culture has "YAKU-DOSHI" also, this is specific years when people are considered to be unlucky.
Shrine/Temple has been exorcise for unlucky year people also, then Hatsumoude is considered very important culture in Japan.


Why did I told this...?
Yes, because this year is my Yaku-Doshi... I hope my unluck has already gone...!

Hatsumoude is not only for new years day, actually "visit the shrine at first time in the year".

If you come to Japan, let's go to Hatsumoude!
