Japanese Culture[]
Omikuji ("御神籤") is written divination about a person's near future that can be found in Shinto shrines across Japan. They give advice based on superstitions such as a favorable direction, travel, business and misfortune. Omikuji are left outside in a wooden box near Buddhist shrines with a sign displaying the price. While traditionally that they are completely self-serve, actually paying the requested amount is entirely made on by conscience. From ancient times Japanese people have used lotteries at festivals to decide the God's will in important matters.
