What is “Happo-yoke” ?

Link to “Happo-yoke” page. Difference between “Happo-yoke” and “Yaku-yoke” will be explained.

Can I consult with you about auspicious and inauspicious directions?

We will offer prayer services for “Happo-yoke,” that is, the good or bad fortune associated with certain directions. In the case of the good fortune of a certain direction, we will pray so that energy is further enhanced.

We offer the prayer services from 8:00 to 17:00 (Open all year round).

Reservations are not necessary.  Please come directly and wait in the anteroom until we are ready to conduct the service.
