[ About Japanese ‘Omamori’【お守り】 ]

‘Omamori’ are Japanese amulets (Lucky charms, Talismans) commonly sold at Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples that dedicated to particular Shinto deities as well as Buddhist figures, and may serve to provide various forms of luck, blessings or protection. The word ‘Omamori’ in Japanese (守り) means protection. 

Its covering is usually a small bag which made of brocade and encloses papers or pieces of wood with prayers written on them are supposed to bring good luck to the bearer.  People always hang it on bags, cellphone straps, in cars, etc.

In general, ‘Omamori’ are replaced once a year to ward off bad luck from the previous year. This way the shrine/temple visitor has a fresh start for the New Year with a new ‘Omamori’.

Old amulets are usually returned to the same shrine or temple they were purchased at so they can be disposed of properly. Throwing an amulet in the trash is also highly discouraged. It is most common for ‘Omamori’ to be returned on or slightly after New Year. Usually they are burned. Burning the old amulet is meant to be a sign of respect to the deity that helped out the person throughout the year.

‘Omamori’ may provide general blessings and protection, or may have a specific focus such as:

交通安全 kōtsū-anzen: For traffic safety. Protection for drivers and travelers of all sorts.
厄除  yaku-yoke: For avoidance of evil.
開運kaiun: For open luck, better fortune.
家内安全kanai-anzen: safety (well-being) of one's family; peace and prosperity in the household.
商売繁盛shōbai-hanjō: For prosperity in business. Success in business and matters of money.
学業成就gakugyō-jōju: For education and passing examinations. For students and scholars.
縁結びen-musubi: For acquisition of a mate and marriage. Available for singles and couples to ensure love and marriage.
安産anzan: protection for pregnant women for a healthy pregnancy and easy delivery

Visitors to the Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples often buy ‘Omamori’ for ownself and give it as a gift to another person as a physical form of well-wishing.

Customarily, ‘Omamori’ should never be opened in order to avoid losing their protective benefits, and should be carried on one's person, like tying on backpack, purse, etc.




[ About Japanese Shinto Shrine ‘Kamidana’【神棚】 ]

Kamidana【神棚】(god-shelf) is a miniature set of household Shinto altar, for enshrining the ‘Shinto’【神道】’s ‘Kami’【神】(the Japanese word for a god, deity or divinity) as a house for the home of ‘Kami’, can be commonly found in Japanese houses and offices. 

A ‘Kamidana’ kit contains a wide variety of items related to Shinto-style ceremonies.

The ‘Kami’ within the ‘Shintai’ is often the deity of the local shrine or one particular to the house owner's profession. For example, ’O-inari-san’【お稲荷さん】is a well known ‘Kami’ which commonly be worshipped by Japanese.
