\ud83c\udfee What Is Shichi-Go-San? | Why We Celebrate at Ages 3, 5, and 7 \ud83c\udf82<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Shichi-Go-San (7-5-3) is a traditional Japanese ceremony to celebrate children\u2019s growth and health \ud83c\udf89<\/p>\n\n\n\n


It originated from ancient court rituals during the Heian period (794\u20131185):
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n


\ud83d\udc67 Age 3: \u201cKamioki\u201d (leaving the hair to grow)
\ud83d\udc66 Age 5: \u201cHakamagi\u201d (wearing hakama pants for the first time)
\ud83d\udc58 Age 7: \u201cObitoki\u201d (wearing the obi sash for the first time)
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


In old times, when medicine was not advanced, it was a miracle for children to grow healthy \ud83d\ude4f

These ceremonies were a way to thank the gods and pray for long life and happiness\u2728
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The custom spread among common people during the Edo period (1603\u20131868),

after the 5th Shogun, Tokugawa Tsunayoshi, celebrated his son\u2019s health in 1681 \ud83c\udf8a


Since then, it has become one of Japan\u2019s most cherished family traditions \ud83d\udc95
