December – Paulownia
Shiwasu: priests run
December marks the end of the solar year and the beginning of the new year, which is one of the most important holidays in Japan. It is a busy and exciting time, especially for priests who bless visitors at Shinto and Buddhist temples. The paulownia tree symbolizes this month and is the official symbol of the Prime Minister of Japan and the country’s democratically elected system of government. Additionally, it is a custom to plant paulownias when a girl is born, and when she is ready for marriage, the trees are cut down and carved into wooden articles to be used as gifts for her husband.
