Ichigo-Ichie

I'm a Japanese woman living in Nara. This blog tells you how to be a "YAMATONADESHIKO". "Yamatonadeshiko" means an ideal Japanese lady who is intelligent, sophisticated and thoughtful. I learn Sado-Japanese traditional tea celemony and Ikebana-Japanese traditional flower arrangement. I introduce about Japan through my experiences. So you can get to know more about Japanese culture such as Sado,Ikebana, customs and seasonal events, especially the ones in Nara.

Season words are important for us who enjoy Sado.
Season words are used for greetings and "Mei"; the name shows season or a motto.
The biginners use season words in the meening of showing season.
At the beginning of April, most season words show the joy of spring or a joy of flowering of "Sakura"; cherry blossoms.

Season words for the beginning of April are as follows:
"Yoshinoyama"; the Mt.Yoshino is famous of cherry blossoms,
"Oboroduki"; misted moon is symbol of spring,
"Shungyou"; daybreak in spring,
"Shunpuu"; a spring wind,
"Shunkou"; a spring sunlight,
"Shunmin"; in spring one sleeps a sleep that knows no dawn
and so on.
