These charms are believed to bring luck for money, and so many people visit and pray at this shrine. On Toji in 2009 (Heisei 21st yr), I visited this shrine. There were stalls which sold things related to Toji such as yuzu (small citrus fruits), yuzu candies and kinkan (cumquats) in addition to the standard stalls for festivals at shrines. Ana-hachimangu Shrine was founded by Minamoto no Yoshiie who dedicated his war helmet and sword to the place where this shrine is located now and enshrined Hachiman (a tutelary deity of warriors) after he won the war in Oshu (a part of the present Iwate Prefecture). In the Edo period, successive shoguns visited and prayed at this shrine, and the 8th shogun, Tokugawa Yoshimune dedicated Yabusame (archery on horseback) to the deity. Even now, the Yabusame dedication is held in Toyama Park nearby on Taiiku-no-hi (the second Monday of October) every year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/?attachment_id=2993\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2993\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2993\" src=\"http:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/toji20091222hojoji.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"404\" height=\"404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/toji20091222hojoji.jpg 404w, https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/toji20091222hojoji-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/toji20091222hojoji-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 404px) 100vw, 404px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u7a74\u516b\u5e61\u5bae\u3092\u5f8c\u306b\u3057\u3066\u3001\u96a3\u63a5\u3059\u308b\u653e\u751f\u5bfa\u306b\u5411\u304b\u3044\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002\u305d\u3053\u3067\u3082\u300c\u4e00\u967d\u6765\u5fa9\u300d\u306e\u5fa1\u5b88\u3092\u3044\u305f\u3060\u3051\u307e\u3059\u3002\u653e\u751f\u5bfa\u306f1641\u5e74\uff08\u5bdb\u6c3818\u5e74\uff09\u306b\u7a74\u516b\u5e61\u5bae\u3092\u7ba1\u7406\u3059\u308b\u305f\u3081\u306b\u5275\u5efa\u3055\u308c\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002\u4ecf\u6559\u306e\u4e0d\u6bba\u751f\u306e\u601d\u60f3\u3088\u308a\u3001\u4eba\u9593\u304c\u3084\u3080\u3092\u3048\u305a\u6bba\u751f\u3057\u305f\u751f\u7269\u3092\u4f9b\u990a\u306e\u305f\u3081\u306b\u9b5a\u3084\u52d5\u7269\u3092\u653e\u3059\u300c\u653e\u751f\u4f1a\u300d\u304c\u3001\u7b2c\u4e8c\u6b21\u4e16\u754c\u5927\u6226\u304b\u3089\u306e\u7d0440\u5e74\u9593\u306e\u4e2d\u65ad\u304c\u3042\u308a\u307e\u3057\u305f\u304c\u3001\u6bce\u5e74\u884c\u308f\u308c\u3066\u3044\u307e\u3059\u3002\u653e\u751f\u5bfa\u306e\u5883\u5185\u306b\u306f\u3001\u9280\u674f\u3084\u3053\u3093\u306b\u3083\u304f\u306a\u3069\u3001\u51ac\u81f3\u306b\u98df\u3079\u308b\u3068\u7e01\u8d77\u826f\u3044\u3068\u8a00\u308f\u308c\u3066\u3044\u308b\u300c\u3093\u300d\u304c\u3064\u304f\u98df\u3079\u7269\u3092\u58f2\u308b\u5c4b\u53f0\u304c\u51fa\u3066\u3044\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002\u79c1\u306f\u51ac\u81f3\u3068\u306f\u4f55\u3082\u95a2\u4fc2\u306a\u3044\u306e\u3067\u3059\u304c\u3001\u71b1\u3005\u30d5\u30ef\u30d5\u30ef\u306e\u305f\u3053\u713c\u304d\u3092\u8cb7\u3063\u3066\u982c\u3070\u308a\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002<\/p>\n<p>I left Ana-hachiman Shrine and went to the adjoining Hojo-ji Temple which also gave worshippers a charm \u201cIchiyo-raifuku\u201d. Hojo-ji Temple was founded to manage Ana-hachiman Shrine in 1641 (Kanei 18th yr). Due to the Buddhist thought of Fusessho (the commandment against killing), fish and birds are released in order to hold a memorial service called \u201cHojoe\u201d for living creatures that people kill for their needs. \u201cHojoe\u201d has been held every year except for a long interruption of about 40 years from the start of World War ll. Some stalls sold lucky Toji foods whose names contain \u201cn\u201d such as ginnan (ginkgo nut) and konnyaku (gelatinous food made from the starch of the konnyaku potato). However, I bought and ate hot fluffy Tako-yaki (wheat flour dumplings with octopus pieces inside) which had no connection to Toji.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/?attachment_id=2998\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2998\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2998\" src=\"http:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/toji20171222pumpkin.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"404\" height=\"404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/toji20171222pumpkin.jpg 404w, https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/toji20171222pumpkin-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/toji20171222pumpkin-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 404px) 100vw, 404px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u51ac\u81f3\u3068\u8a00\u3048\u3070\u307b\u3068\u3093\u3069\u306e\u4eba\u304c\u982d\u306b\u6d6e\u304b\u3079\u308b\u306e\u304c\u5357\u74dc\u3067\u3059\u3002\u5357\u74dc\u306f\u69d8\u3005\u306a\u30d3\u30bf\u30df\u30f3\u3084\u30ab\u30ed\u30c1\u30f3\u3092\u542b\u3080\u6804\u990a\u4fa1\u306e\u9ad8\u3044\u91ce\u83dc\u3067\u3001\u7279\u306b\u98df\u751f\u6d3b\u304c\u8c4a\u304b\u3067\u306f\u306a\u304b\u3063\u305f\u6642\u4ee3\u306b\u306f\u51ac\u306b\u5357\u74dc\u3092\u98df\u3079\u308b\u3068\u98a8\u90aa\u4e88\u9632\u306b\u306a\u3063\u305f\u3053\u3068\u304c\u3001\u51ac\u81f3\u306b\u5357\u74dc\u3092\u98df\u3079\u308b\u7fd2\u6163\u304c\u751f\u307e\u308c\u305f\u3068\u3044\u3046\u8aac\u304c\u3042\u308a\u307e\u3059\u3002\u548c\u98df\u3067\u306e\u4e00\u822c\u7684\u306a\u98df\u3079\u65b9\u306f\u716e\u7269\u3067\u3059\u3002\u6211\u304c\u5bb6\u3067\u306f\u51ac\u81f3\u306e\u65e5\u306b\u304b\u307c\u3061\u3083\u306e\u30b7\u30c1\u30e5\u30fc\u3084\u30b5\u30e9\u30c0\u3092\u4f5c\u308b\u3053\u3068\u3082\u3042\u308a\u307e\u3059\u3002<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of Toji, almost everyone associates this time of year with pumpkin. Pumpkin is a nutritious vegetable containing various vitamins and carotene; eating pumpkin in the winter was believed to prevent people from catching a cold especially in the past when people didn\u2019t have plentiful diets, and that\u2019s why this tradition started and has continued. A typical Japanese dish of pumpkin is Nimono, boiled in broth and seasoned with soy sauce and sugar.

Popular dishes of azuki beans on Toji are Azuki-gayu (rice porridge with azuki beans) and Kabocha-no-itokoni (pumpkin and azuki beans boiled and seasoned with soy sauce and sugar). Itokoni literally means \u201cboiled cousins\u201d because the relationship between pumpkin and azuki beans is compared to that of cousins. On and around Toji, Itoko-ni in an instant package is also sold. Azuki beans are native to East Asia and have been raised in many countries since the old days. They are about 20% smaller than soy beans, and their color is so to speak, \u201cazuki-iro\u201d (azuki bean color): purplish, dark reddish brown. Azuki beans are a high-protein, low-fat and nutritious food with many kinds of vitamins, and their color was believed to have a power to protect people from evil. For this reason, azuki beans are often used as an ingredient for meals during celebrations.

An autoclave is helpful for saving a lot of time when cooking azuki beans. Canned and instant-packaged boiled azuki beans are also sold.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/?attachment_id=2999\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2999\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2999\" src=\"http:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/tojibath.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"404\" height=\"404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/tojibath.jpg 404w, https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/tojibath-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/azuregns.com\/year\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/tojibath-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 404px) 100vw, 404px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u51ac\u81f3\u306b\u306f\u67da\u5b50\u3092\u304a\u98a8\u5442\u306b\u6d6e\u304b\u3079\u3066\u3001\u67da\u5b50\u6e6f\u3092\u697d\u3057\u3080\u3068\u4e00\u5e74\u9593\u7121\u75c5\u606f\u707d\u3068\u8a00\u308f\u308c\u3066\u3044\u307e\u3059\u3002\u67da\u5b50\u306f\u9999\u308a\u306e\u826f\u3044\u871c\u67d1\u306e\u4e00\u7a2e\u3067\u3001\u51ac\u306b\u53ce\u7a6b\u3055\u308c\u307e\u3059\u3002\u67da\u5b50\u306e\u5165\u6d74\u5264\u3092\u4f7f\u3046\u3068\u3088\u308a\u7c21\u5358\u306b\u305d\u3057\u3066\u5b89\u4fa1\u306b\u67da\u5b50\u6e6f\u3092\u697d\u3057\u3081\u307e\u3059\u3002\u67da\u5b50\u306e\u5165\u6d74\u5264\u3092\u304a\u98a8\u5442\u306b\u5165\u308c\u308b\u3068\u304a\u6e6f\u304c\u307b\u3093\u306e\u308a\u9ec4\u7dd1\u8272\u306b\u306a\u308a\u3001\u67da\u5b50\u306e\u9999\u308a\u304c\u3057\u3066\u3001\u6e29\u6cc9\u306b\u5165\u3063\u3066\u3044\u308b\u3088\u3046\u306a\u6c17\u5206\u306b\u306a\u308a\u307e\u3059\u3002\u56fa\u5f62\u3001\u30d1\u30a6\u30c0\u30fc\u3001\u4e7e\u71e5\u67da\u5b50\u304c\u5c0f\u3055\u306a\u7d19\u30d1\u30c3\u30af\u306b\u5165\u3063\u3066\u3044\u308b\u306a\u3069\u3001\u3055\u307e\u3056\u307e\u306a\u30bf\u30a4\u30d7\u306e\u67da\u5b50\u306e\u5165\u6d74\u5264\u304c\u5165\u624b\u3067\u304d\u307e\u3059\u3002<\/p>\n<p>On Toji, people enjoy Yuzu-yu; a hot bath with yuzu floating on the water which is to keep people healthy for 1 year. Yuzu is a type of citrus fruit with a sweet smell and are in season in winter. Using yuzu bath incenses is an easier and less expensive way to enjoy Yuzu-yu. The bath with incenses of yuzu is pale yellow green in color, smells like yuzu and makes us feel like we are in Onsen (hot springs).

Boiled octopus and vegetable were added with the seasoning and put into the yuzu bowls. I boiled pumpkin and duck meat with soy-sauce and sugar for Toji specialties of that year. The dishes with \u201cn\u201d sound ingredients are salmon Chirashi-zushi (sushi topped with sea food, vegetables and other ingredients) with ninjin and kinshi-tamago (cooked beaten egg which is thinly sliced) on top, and Ae-mono (Japanese style salad) of ito-konnyaku (thread-like konnyaku) and chirimen-jako (dried young sardines).
