        Some of the protective amulets I mentioned, like my wife put on the childrens' bags. Some even come with "Hello Kitty!" ...



        A decoration for the doorways at New Years, much as my wife hung at our place ...



        Tomorrow, they will all be burned at the "Dondo Yaki" fire at a local Shinto Shrine ...



        "Omikuji" fortune telling at many Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines in Japan.

        July 9, 2011: At the big shrine in Asakusa where Marina took me for the festival, there was an omikuji stand. She explains and demonstrates it, here.


        It might not help, but couldn't hurt.

        Gassho, J

                I am a novice priest-in-training. Anything that I say must not be considered as teaching
                and should be taken with a 'grain of salt'.

                    I have a lot to learn; take anything I say that sounds like teaching with a grain of salt.

                            Interestingly (or not), in English cricket it is considered bad luck when the score is on 111. In Australia it is 87. No idea why for either but these things do seem to be culture specific.

                              It is pretty common in Canada at least to find buildings that skip the 13th floor.
