Omikuji is a traditional form of Japanese fortune telling in which a person's fortune is written on piece of folded paper and is typically sold at Shinto Shrines.Yaegaki shrine’s Omikuji is quite unique. It is a flat piece of paper not folded. You buy the Omikuji and bring it to Kagaminoike pond in the forest near the shrine.

It’s said that the sooner the Omikuji sinks in the pond, the sooner you will marry.
