Once in a Lifetime: Visit Ise Jingu ♡
"Ise Jingu" located in Ise City, Mie Prefecture.
It is affectionately known as "O-Ise-san" and is one of Japan's representative shrines.
During the Edo period, it was often said, "At least once in a lifetime, visit O-Ise-san," showing how beloved this shrine has been for many years.*
I Want to Open My Luck with Ise Jingu’s "Kaiun Suzu Mamori" ♡
Ise Jingu offers various types of amulets, but the one that has been particularly popular with women recently is the 《Kaiun Suzu Mamori》, an amulet prayed for good fortune.
It means "the sound of the pure bell opens luck." ♡
Don’t you think it’s a perfect amulet for couples who are about to embark on a new path or celebrate a milestone in their marriage?
The bell attached to the amulet rings every time you walk, bringing about a feeling of happiness. ♡
Different Shapes: Naiku and Geiku*
Ise Jingu comprises two main shrines, Naiku (Inner Shrine) and Geiku (Outer Shrine), and you can receive the Kaiun Suzu Mamori at either, but the shapes are different between the two.
The amulet from Naiku is pouch-shaped (the cord is white).
The amulet from Geiku is magatama-shaped (the cord matches the color of the amulet)*
(When combined, they form a heart! ♡)
The colors are the same for both Naiku and Geiku, with four options: white, pink, purple, and red.
The shapes of the amulets vary between Naiku and Geiku even within Ise Jingu, so be sure to check before you go◎
