七五三
Shichi go san
子供の成長を祝う様々な風習、七五三。
Kodomo no seichou o iwau samazamana fuushuu, shichi go san.
This ceremony is conducted at many shrines in Japan on November 15. On this day, parents with children 7, 5, and 3 years old come a shrine to express their gratitude to Kami (deity) because the children have reached those critical ages. They also come to invoke future blessings. The occasion was marked by ceremonies of putting up the hair of a 3-year-old girl (we call Kami-oki), of placing a hakama (pleated skirt) on a 5-year-old boy, and of giving a 7-year-old girl an obi (silk girdle), to be worn for the first time.
