岡山県 吉備津彦神社のお守りです。
桃太郎の伝承がある吉備津彦神社とあって桃のお守りです🍑
また、古来より桃は魔除けの果実として知られているそうです。
Charm from Kibitsuhiko Shrine in Okayama Prefecture! 🍑
Since this shrine is tied to the legend of Momotaro (the Peach Boy), it features this adorable peach-shaped charm (omamori). Plus, peaches have been known since ancient times as a sacred fruit for warding off evil spirits! ✨
About Momotaro
Momotaro (Peach Boy) is a famous Japanese folk tale about a boy born from a giant peach floating down a river.
As he grows up, he sets off to Onigashima (Demon Island) to defeat evil demons. On his journey, he shares his kibi dango(rice cakes) to team up with three animal companions: a dog, a monkey, and a pheasant. Together, they defeat the demons and bring peace back to the land.
