季節外れの初詣 Unseasonal first visit

今年の初詣にようやく行った。すでに節分を過ぎているので、完全に季節外れ。

今回は密を避けるという目的もあったが、あえて節分後にすることにしていた。その理由は、占いを趣味にしている家人の友人の勧めによる。

実は、何故、そのようなことを勧めたのか、その理由を私は聞きたい。しかし、家人をとおして聞くのも面倒なので、その勧めに従うことにしたのだ。

結果的には、とてもスムースに参拝出来、しかも御守りも買えた。しかも、何組か御守りを買う参拝客もいたので、そのような考え方もあるのだと、納得した。

I finally went to the first visit of this year. It's already past Setsubun, so it's completely out of season.

This time, I had the purpose of avoiding the crowd, but I decided to do it after Setsubun. The reason is the recommendation of a friend of a family member who has a hobby of fortune-telling.

Actually, I would like to ask why I recommended such a thing. However, it is troublesome to listen through the family, so I decided to follow the recommendation.

As a result, I was able to worship very smoothly, and I was able to buy an amulet. Moreover, there were some worshipers who bought amulets, so I was convinced that there was such a way of thinking.
