From our #QPArchive, for the delectation of our N🌏 friends, a Japanese #tanzaku 短冊 in autumnal hues

The szn of #fūrin is ending as fall draws near. Yet the fleeting never loses its beauty. I trust they’ll keep warding off evil spirits. Maybe 1 day I’ll ✍🏼 my own #tanzaku… until then, may my #gratitude reach the 🩷 that held me, & may my wishes find their way.

At Tanabata (七夕) people write wishes on colourful paper strips called 'tanzaku' (短冊) and hang them from decorated bamboo fronds.

In ancient times people originally etched poems on the leaves of sacred kajinoki (梶の木 'paper mulberry') trees and offered them to the gods.

I'll hang my tanzaku when I get home after work.

At #Shōju-inTemple, summer sways in strings— #ajisai, glass fūrin & #tanzaku wishes. The sound is soft, calming. #Fūrin mark summer, echo life’s brief beauty, & are said to protect. Together, they hold that quiet calm only Japanese tradition captures.

Ofuda and Tanzaku Following my previous post about omamori, I am going to write about ofuda and tanzaku in this post. Like my previous post, this post is inspired by an episode of the ‘Uncanny Japan’ pod…
