Auspicious!

We visit the Shinto shrine on New Year's Day.
It's called "Hatsumoude". It's the first visit paid on the New Year's holidays to a shrine. People pray for a long life and happiness for the year.

I bought a fortune paper called "Omikuji" after pray. It's frotune written on slips of paper.People buy then at shrines and tie them onto the branches of nearby trees in hopes that a good frtune will come true or that a bad frtune will be kept away.

My result was Best Fortune!
I decided to keep it instead of tying it to the tree.
