Items recommended for boosting your luck in the New Year! 【About Shrines】 Meiji Jingu Shrine is known as the shrine with the most visitors in Japan for the first shrine visit of the year. Located in the heart of Tokyo, it is surrounded by a vast forest and is known as one of Tokyo's best power spots. The reasons for this include being a healing spot with a vast sacred forest (Jingu Forest) in the middle of Tokyo, one of the world's largest cities, and being located on a dragon vein that connects to Mount Fuji. The effects of this power spot are said to include healing, purification, and improved luck. The enshrined deities are Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken, and while matchmaking is well-known as a benefit, there are also benefits for business prosperity, family safety, and warding off evil. For those who cannot visit due to distance, you can still receive blessings just by obtaining lucky charms and amulets! 【About Amulets】 For 100 years since its dedication in 1920, the South Approach Torii (Harajuku Entrance First Torii) has welcomed many visitors as the boundary of the sacred area of Meiji Jingu Shrine. It was rebuilt as part of the commemorative project for the 100th anniversary of its dedication, which was held in 2020. Using the wood (Taiwan cypress) of the old South Approach Torii, which had completed its long role, the "Disaster Prevention and Good Fortune Amulet" was created, praying to ward off all disasters and bring in good fortune.
