I've not attended such a ceremony. I've only prayed in a shrine, like Masumida shrine in Ichinomiya City, at New Year's visit to a shrine.
On the other hand, if you would eat your age's beans on Setsubun (3th February) after Bean-throwing ceremony, it would get rid of your `bad luck`.
Are you a yakudoshi this year?
Now, I'm 3..... oh! :)
I've never attended ceremony like this.
It seems feel sleepy...I think so too,
but not too bad, because you could get Ichigo Daifuku!
I also love it!
It's a season of strawberry soon!
Although I felt sleepy when the priest was reading all the names, it was still an interesting experience for me, especially because I`m a foreigner in Japan. I guess not many foreigners get the chance to take part in this ceremony. Lucky me!
Could you get rid of your bad luck? I hope so!
I`ve tried kurikinton (sweet potato & chestnut, right?) a couple of times, but I don`t like it so much; I don`t like starchy [denpun, nori, suta-chi?] sweets so much.
I have a lot of hobbies & interests, and I`ll be writing about some of them on this blog. If you enjoy what you read, please leave a comment. I`ll try to use simple English so even if you`re not confident about reading English, I think you can understand. Thanks for visiting my blog!
