December 21st is the winter solstice.

The winter solstice is one of the 24 solar terms and marks the shortest day and longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.

It usually falls around December 21st to December 23rd.

On this day, the sun is at its southernmost position, so it rises later and sets earlier, making the days seem shorter.

The winter solstice was a special day for ancient people who were conscious of the rhythms of nature.

From this day onwards, the sun will begin to rise higher again and the length of the days will gradually increase.

For this reason, the winter solstice was considered a symbol of “rebirth” and “new beginnings.”

Until a few weeks ago, it wasn’t that cold, and I thought it was a warm winter, but since last week, it’s gotten really cold.

At Wasako, we serve matcha in a warm room.

Please come and visit the Wasako tea room.

12月21日は冬至（とうじ）です。

冬至は、二十四節氣の一つで、北半球では1年の中で最も昼が短く、夜が長い日を指します。

通常、12月21日頃から12月23日頃に当たります。

この日は太陽の位置が最も南に傾き、太陽が昇る時間が遅く、沈む時間が早くなるため、

昼間の時間が短く感じられるのです。

冬至は自然のリズムを意識する古代の人々にとって特別な日でした。

この日を境に、太陽が再び高く昇り始め、昼の長さが少しずつ伸びていきます。

そのため、冬至は「再生」や「新しい始まり」の象徴とされました。

数週間前までは、あまり寒くなくて、暖冬なのかな？と思っておりましたが

先週あたりから、とても寒くなってきましたね。

和茶子-wasako-では、暖かいお部屋で抹茶をご用意しております。

ぜひ和茶子-wasako-の茶室へいらしてください。

本格的な和室で茶道体験いかがですか？

Sensoji Temple’s Osame Kannon (end of the year Kannon Festival) is an event held every year on December 18th, and is officially held as part of the Toshinoichi (New Year’s Market).

This is a traditional event in which people give thanks to Kannon Bodhisattva, the principal image of Sensoji Temple, for the past year and pray for happiness in the coming year.

The 18th is considered Kannon’s festival day, and is a day that is especially cherished at Kannon shrines such as Sensoji Temple.

This day is the last Kannon festival of the year, so it is particularly crowded with many visitors.

The temple grounds will be specially decorated, and at night lanterns will be lit up, creating a fantastical landscape.

“Osame Kannon” Looking back on the past year and entrusting your hopes for the new year to Kannon Bodhisattva, you can experience the traditional Japanese mindset.

A visit to Sensoji Temple’s “Osame no Kannon” (End of the Year Kannon Bodhisattva) will help you find peace of mind amid the hustle and bustle of the year.

Be sure to enjoy the Hagoita Market and appreciate the winter atmosphere of Asakusa.
