It is one of nijushisekki(二十四節気), the 24 solar terms. The last one was keichitsu (啓蟄) on March 5, and the next one is seimei (清明) on April 4. It is the day when the daytime and night time are almost the same length.
Today is the first day of three day weekend.
Last night I came to Osaka.
This morning I went to Samuhara shrine.
Then I went to Sumiyoshitaisha to attend a special event organized by Mr.Hiroto Fujimoto, who has the highest rank of the shinto shrine profession without belonging to any shrine. It started at 10:30 and lasted until 17:00. There were 45 participants. I know some of thrm from other events or seminars.
There was a lecture first, and we had lunch, had a special praying ceremony, visited the shrines within precincts.
Weather was good all day long.We had a very good day.
I came back to Tennoji after a half year. Restaurants open in limited spaces snd close ealier because of COVID-19.
