Description
Good luck symbolism, charms, and fortunes vary among religions and cultures. In the Japanese culture, traditions of amulets and fortunes have been around for thousands of years!
Amulets; dedicated to Shinto spirits and Buddhist religious figures, offer good fortune and protection, and ward off bad luck. Fortunes called Omikuji, or paper fortunes; received at Buddhist and Shinto temples and shrines; often fortel matters of life, love, and health. Positive Omikuji range from a great blessing, middle blessing, small blessing, half blessing, future blessing, and future small blessing. If the future prediction is not what the person was hoping for, the paper fortune is pinned to a tree. This way, the fortune would wait by the tree and not be attached to the bearer.
The creation of my artwork sends good fortune to all. I have included symbolism of Peacocks and sprigs of the Cherry Blossom tree. Sakurayu, or cherry blossom tea, is made by pouring hot water over pickled cherry blossoms petals and is often served at engagements and weddings; representing new beginnings, good fortune, and a sign of good luck. Many religions and cultures regard peacocks as a symbol of good fortune and luck. In Hinduism, the peacock is often identified with Lakshmi; the Goddess of wealth and the feathers of the bird are believed to bring prosperity and good fortune into the home.
