Omikuji ( Fortune telling) at Senso-ji Temple. VR180 Virtual Experience

Day 2. Asakusa. Omikuji is a form of fortune telling at Senso-ji Temple. You put your offering in the coin slot. Shake the metal container then tilt it so the wooden stick with the number falls out. Go to the drawer that corresponds with the number on the stick and take the sheet of fortune. The front of the sheet is written in Kanji in the grammar of yesteryear so even if you can read Kanji it is still a riddle. Luckly, the back side of the sheet tells you your fortune in plain Japanese and English, If it is good fortune , you can keep the sheet for good luck. If it is bad fortune , you fold the sheet into a strip and tie it to the rack to leave the bad luck at the temple.
