I believe in omens.
I don't depend on and place too much trust in fortune-telling but I believe in omens and observe a custom when I stand at a crossroad.
For example...
I choose direction and timing based on [feng shui] or [Four Pillars of Destiny] when I move into my house.
I buy [Ofuda]at shrine and post it in my house.
But if I meet with wrongs,I forget it ever existed.I'm over-optimistic.

I started to get the new year started last end of the year and god year after year.
30th December,it was last working day at La Siora.We closed early time and cleaned our office.
I asked receptionist Nica errands [Kadomatsu]。The kadomatsu symbolizes a tree provided for the descent of the gods.
We put in it office entrance and went out for dinner.

We ate [Hi-nabe(hot pot)] by everybody's request.It is good for beauty and helth.


After hot pot,we went to anothe cafe and ate dessert,big parfait.We felt a freedom.


I came back to my house full up.
I put in "kadomatsu" at house through the front door.

In the morning on New Year's Eve.I opened the door.
"Kadomatsu" fell over!!!!!!.......It was of bad omen.
"These things just happen.I have ups and downs.OK,forget it."

New Year's morning,chopsticks broke.
(Especially in New Year,it is signs of ill presage.)

I caught a cold end of year but I was getting better.
But!I think I might catch a new cold today.I'm health geek!It's rare!

I went to [Hatsumoude] four times during the holiday.
(Hatsumoude means New Year's visits to shrines.)
But I have to go to [oharai] at shrine...It never hurts to be careful.

...Cough-cough...
I have to put on vitamin-C drip before then.
