🎍 New Year's Dedication: Reverse Fortune-Telling - 'The Fortune That Doesn't Predict Fate'

Happy New Year.
We look forward to serving you again this year at Ise Omikuji-do.

To mark the beginning of Reiwa 8, we have prepared a New Year's reverse fortune-telling.
From the 12 phrases listed below,
choose one that feels closest to your current state of mind.
Beyond that choice, you will find the fortune itself.

These are words like a mirror.
It is a reverse fortune-telling where the reader finds the meaning for themselves.

Sometimes, the festive bustle of the New Year can leave you feeling tired for no reason.
If you feel that way, don't overthink it; just gently draw a fortune.
Words meant for you right now are surely waiting.

The 12 phrases
may all look the same.
However, there is one phrase that makes your heart stir a little
even before you open it.
That is
the phrase closest to you right now.
Beyond that phrase,
the fortune itself awaits.

*If nothing catches your eye, it is perfectly fine not to draw one today.

🟡 A year of not comparing
🟡 It's okay to choose again
🟡 Starting today is fine
⚪ Continue quietly
⚪ It's okay not to change
⚪ Being lost is proof of sincerity
🔵 The strength to stand still
🔵 The courage to let go
🔵 A day to accept
🟣 Stop so you don't turn your back
🟣 The night is long, but the flow continues
🟣 If you are tired, stop

There is no New Year's bravado
or talk of 'great blessings' or 'bad luck' here.
Even so,
there are words that will reach only you, right now.
For those who need them, where they are needed.

This year, Ise Omikuji-do
hopes to continue being such a place.

If you like this, I will bring you the morning of Ise again.
Please follow and wait for it.
