Are you ready for Obon?
Obon is a festival to welcome the spirits of ancestors and deceased family members. It begins with the '迎え火' (Welcoming Fire) and ends with the '送り火' (Sending Fire).
In households, lanterns are arranged as welcoming and sending fires to honor the spirits and souls of ancestors and departed loved ones. Since it is the once-a-year occasion when ancestors return, do your best to host them warmly within your means.
Traditionally,White lanterns for the new obonwere prepared by the family of the deceased, whilelanterns with painted designs (used annually) were generally prepared by relatives or acquaintances.However, due to recent changes in living environments, the placement and space for decoration have shifted from Buddhist altars to living rooms and other areas, leading families toprepare all lanterns and bon festival supplies themselves, while relatives and acquaintances tend to offer offerings (cash, incense, etc.).Furthermore, the timing for starting decorations varies by household. Decorations are usually put up from the 13th (迎え盆) to the 16th (最終日), but to avoid rushing on the day, many start gradually in the Obon month (July or August).
Hasegawa responds to various requests regarding Obon offerings and decorations, accommodating diverse needs.
