Summer great exorcism @ Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine
Hello everyone! It's Kazuyoshi. In 2020, we quickly entered the second half of the year. June 30, the last day of the first half of the year, was the day of "Summer Exorcism". "Summer Exorcism" is an event that prays for health and exorcism for the second half of the year, thanks to the fact that you were able to safely spend the first half of the year after dropping the impure (injury). It has been thought that various sins and filth will occur in daily life. So he began to perform a large exorcism to purify sins and filth in Chinowa and other places. The origin of the Chinowa is in Japanese mythology. The legend that "Susanoo-no-Mikoto gave Chinowa as a thank-you for the future of Somin, and in the future of Sumin, saved from the plague," comes from the Chinowa. Located about a 5-minute walk from Tsukishima Station on the Yurakucho Line and Toei Oedo Line, the first time participating in the summer great exorcism at Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, a guardian god in the Tsukishima area! About 40 people from men and women of all ages participated. First of all, write a name on a paper doll called "Katashiro", breathe in and transfer your sins and filth to this form. It is said that if you bring this to the shrine on the day of great exorcism and purify it, sins and filth will be purified.

The world of "Tsukuda" and "After Corona" where old and new blends
Hello everyone! It's Kazuyoshi. This time, I would like to introduce the Tsukuda area near Tsukishima Station! The current Tsukuda area originates from Tsukuda Island, which was reclaimed in the early Edo period. Tsukuda Island was reclaimed and developed in the early Edo period by fishermen from Tsukuda Village in Osaka (now Tsukuda, Nishiyodogawa-ku, Osaka-shi, Osaka-shi, Osaka). At the time of the change of Honnoji, Ieyasu Tokugawa was in Osaka and was in danger of life with only a few ally. The fishermen of Tsukudamura appeared as saviors there, and Ieyasu was saved because they provided fishing boats to Ieyasu. Later, when Ieyasu moved to Edo, he brought the fishermen of Tsukudamura, their benefactors who saved his life, to Edo. This Tsukuda area is barely escaped from the earthquake and war damage, and still retains the impression of the Edo period. It features a cityscape that combines old and old landscapes such as shrines and new landscapes such as high-rise apartments. Since the reclamation of Tsukuda Island in the Edo period, the construction of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, a guardian god in the Tsukuda area, the construction of shipyards and heavy industrial areas, and the construction of ultra-high-rise residential areas through redevelopment. By the way, the scenery part of the photo also appears in the shogi anime "Lion in March"! At present, the declaration of a state of emergency has finally been lifted in TokyoCOVID-19, and it is now possible to go out. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to new developments in work styles and lifestyles, such as the spread of remote work. Like the Tsukuda area, which has developed through the fusion of old and new, in the after-corona world after COVID-19 calmed down, I would like to move forward by combining old and new things well!
