OTHER OCCASIONS to visit the Shrine are: prayers and blessing for good health of individuals or family members, prosperity, business success, recovery from illness, safe birth, safe travel, success in studies, meeting the right companion, good marriage, success in sports or memorial service and funeral etc.

NEW YEARʼS BLESSING (Hatsumoude) is held at the Shrine on January 1st beginning at 12:00 midnight until January 3rd. The blessing is to express gratitude for the past year's blessings and ask for divine guidance and protection for the upcoming New Year.

CHILDRENʼS BLESSING (Shichi-Go-San) is held in November for children ages 7, 5 and 3 for their health, well-being and progress in their growth and education.

BLESSING AT SIGNIFICANT AGES (Yakudoshi) is celebrated at the ages of 25, 42 and 61 for men and 19, 33 and 37 for women as oriental ages. This tradition originated because ancient people considered these ages to be full of major changes and hazards. Therefore, these milestone ages are traditionally marked with purification, blessing and gratitude and invocation for divine guidance.

TRADITIONAL SHINTO WEDDING CEREMONIES are performed with either traditional Japanese kimono or western gown.
