Alternatively, how about a lucky stone🪨
🫴Take a blessed pebble home and for a year it will offer protection.
🙏The following year return it to the festival, and discard all that accumulated bad luck.
✨The stones will then be purified and powered with sacred energy once more.

During Mitarashi Matsuri a special kind of fortune called 'mizuura-mikuji' (水占みくじ) can be found. Blank paper omikuji (御神籤) are placed onto water...as the water soaks in the fortune is revealed. Kifune-jinja (貴船神社) is particularly well-known for this style of omikuji. #水占みくじ #omikuji #Shimogamojinja
