Why do we display hamayumi?

The reasons for decorating for the Children's Day and New Year's holidays are as follows:

1. Wishing for the growth and health of children

   • In ancient Japan, the safe growth of children was a source of great joy. To protect children from illness and accidents, the custom of displaying a hamayumi bow, a symbol of protection against evil, in the home was born.
     
     

2. A lucky charm to ward off misfortune

   • New Year's Day marks the beginning of a new year , and it was believed that evil spirits and bad luck were more likely to enter the home. By displaying hamaya and hamayumi in the home, it is believed that evil spirits will be driven away and good fortune will be brought in .
     
     

3. Symbol of the samurai spirit

   • Bows are a symbol of strength and bravery , as they were weapons used by samurai during the Warring States period. They also contain the wish that children will have a strong heart and courage .
