I just remembered I used to put a drawing of treasure ship "Takara-bune" under my pillow on New Year's Day( or JAN 2nd). I guess it was to have an auspicious dream. It probably comes from Edo(Tokyo) folklore and is related to the Seven-Lucky-Gods who are onboard the treasure ship.
Additionally, there was a magical charm written on the drawing. It's a "Kaibun" -- palindromic poem -- in the Waka style, which is related to an auspicious dream.
Fantastic article! I've been casually reading a book on yokai (å¦ęŖļ¼å¹»ē£ å¦ć ćććēµµå·»)because I always found supernatural creatures and Japanese folklore interesting.
Love this!
Thank you for reading, Iām so glad you enjoyed it.
Amazing! You are a wonderful storyteller. Honestly, you introduce Yokai and local gods better than I can, though I'm Japanese.š
