Thanksgiving Day and Niiname-no-Matsuri.
Thanks for the new grain, Niiname-no-Matsuri prayed for a good harvest.
On February 17, the festival was held against Kinen-sai.
It is served at shrines all over the country.
The tax was paid by Yamatohime-no-Mikoto, who dedicated Amaterasu Omikami to Ise.
It is said that the harvested rice ears were put in front of God.
Shrines in various places are also taxed in front of the shrine.
In the past, rice was used as a substitute for money.
The tax suspension is said to be the origin of the current tax.
There is a custom that gives you great blessings by eating sacred food.
Rice ears grown in Kanda of Fukutoku Shrine in a noshi bag filled with new grains.
It is "Fukume" which was inserted and purified in front of God.
The award starts on the day of Niiname-no-Matsuri and the number is limited.
For the work of many people until delicious rice is lined up on the table.
I want to appreciate it.
