[February 2nd Setsubun Festival] 2025
On Sunday, February 2, the Setsubun Festival was held at Oyama Afuri Shrine Lower Shrine, Sannomiya Hibita Shrine (guests [Sekitorishu] Takadagawa Oyakata, Ryurai, Shonan Noumi, Teru [rakugo artist] Sanyutei Yukichi), and Isehara Daijingu Shrine.
Unfortunately, it was raining in the morning, and it was cold with snow falling at Oyama Afuri Shrine Lower Shrine, but it was crowded with many Worshippers.
At the annual mamemaki (bean throwing), everyone shouted "Fortune is inside, demons are outside!" and we would have been able to drive away demons and attract good fortune ✨.
In addition, there was a lottery that could be exchanged for a small format, and there were times when you could win a wonderful Premiums, which was very and lively!
