Omamori Amulet (お守り - Omamori)
A portable fabric amulet sold at Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples, containing sacred prayers to protect the owner from bad luck, or to bring luck in health, school, or relationships. A golden rule is to never open the bag.
Rooted in ancient polished stones (Magatama) worn as shields against evil. During the Heian period, pilgrims carried sacred paper slips, which eventually evolved into modern, beautiful fabric pouches.
Carry it constantly in your bag, wallet, or pocket. Avoid opening the stitched drawstring pouch as doing so releases the divine energy. After one year, return the amulet to a shrine to be ceremonially burned and renewed.
