Omamori (ใๅฎใ) are Japanese amulets/charms/talismans sold at religious sites and dedicated to particular Shinto deities as well as Buddhist figures, and are said to provide various forms of luck or protection.Originally made from paper or wood, modern amulets are items usually kept inside a brocade bag and may contain a prayer or religious inscription of invocation.Omamori are then made sacred through the use of ritual and are said to contain busshin (spiritual evolutions) in a Shinto context or kesshin (manifestations) in a Buddhist context.Omamori should never be opened in order to avoid losing their protective benefits, and should belong only to one person. Often they are tied to a backpack, purse, car mirror, etc.Throwing an amulet in the trash is highly discouraged. Old omamori should not be placed in the trash with other commonly discarded rubbish, but rather treated with respect. ***************************************************** WORLDWIDE SHIPPING BY AIRMAIL Package arrival time depends on the destination and when the order is placed Shipped in two business days Included a greeting card in Japanese style, with envelope.

Back then, the shrine was called Tลdai-ji Hachimangu until the separation of Shinto from Buddhism after the Meiji Restoration (around 1868), when he was laterrenamed after mountain Tamukeyama located nearby. Its location changed several times, first from the southern part of the now unknown Nashiharanomiya to the eastern side of the Kagamiike pond (also Hachimanike pond), after which it was finally relocated to its present site by Hลiล Tokiyori in the second year of the Kenchล era (1250). The present location is also said to be the place of the former Senjuin temple of Tลdai-ji. Tamukeyama has been famous for the beautiful red and yellow autumn leaves (momiji) since ancient times. In a poem that also appears in the anthology โOne Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poetsโ, Sugawara no Michizane (845-903), who became the kami of scholarship, praises the mountain as follows: โkonotabi wa nusa mo toriaezu Tamukeyama momiji no nishiki kami no mani maniโ (โAt the present time, since no offering I could bring, see, Mount Tamuke! Here are brocades of red leaves, at the pleasure of the kamiโ). The stone he sat down writing the poem is now worshipped as the stone for academic achievement. ***************************************************** Japanese amulet, Japanese talisman, Japanese omamori, Omamori, Japanese charm, Japanese good luck, Japanese lucky charm, Japanese charms, Talisman for fortune, Charm for protection, Lucky Charm for lucky, Good luck, Good fortune, protection charm, protection amulet, protection talisman, bad luck charm, evil eye charms ***************************************************** Want to buy an omamori to give to someone but that person lives far away?
