Fortune Telling in Japan: Luck, Fate & Shrines

When joining this Asakusa and Sensoji Temple walking tour, be sure to try the English omikuji fortune slip experience. Omikuji have long been a part of Japanese temple culture, and reading your fortune in English makes it easy and fun to understand your luck while learning about local traditions. Combined with a stroll through Sensoji and Nakamise Street, it adds a memorable and uniquely Japanese touch to your Tokyo visit.

When joining this Kurama and Kibune ancient path hiking tour, be sure to try the Mizu-ura Omikuji (water fortune-telling) at Kifune Shrine. Place the special paper on the sacred spring water, and your fortune slowly appears, offering a truly magical glimpse into traditional Japanese divination. Combined with the area’s beautiful nature, this unique experience makes the journey even more memorable. Clear English guidance makes it easy and enjoyable for first-time visitors as well.

This tour offers a one-hour Oriental astrology fortune-telling experience in Meiwa Town, Mie Prefecture, near Ise Grand Shrine. Based on ancient astrology once used to select priestesses serving Ise Shrine, your personality and destiny are interpreted from your birthdate. Enjoy coffee or tea in a relaxed setting, and receive a special souvenir: a goshuin-style paper from Take Shrine. With private sessions and English support available, it’s a unique cultural experience to enrich your visit to Ise.
