Happy New Year
Happy New Year everyone! May every day of the new year bring cheer and happiness to you and your family!
Here in Japan we have a tradition of hatsumoude - the first visit to a shrine of the new year. We make wishes for the new year and buy "omikuji" - a written oracle and "omamori" - charms or amulets.
This year I went to a shrine in my neighborhood - Inari jinja.

Unfortunetely my omikuji predicted me a bad luck so I tied it in hope that the bad luck will turn into a good one.
Do you have any special traditions in your countries?
Happy New Year again!
