Tokyo Omamori Post is an independent shop, not affiliated with or endorsed by Sensoji Temple. The temple name shows where each charm was obtained.

Where it's from

Purchased in person at Sensoji Temple (浅草寺), Asakusa, Tokyo.

How it's traditionally kept

Traditionally an omamori is kept closed — opening it is thought to undo its purpose. Most people carry it in a bag, pocket or wallet, or keep it somewhere clean at home.

In Japan it is common, though not required, to return an omamori to a shrine or temple (not necessarily the same one) after about a year and receive a new one.

Delivery

We obtain this charm from the temple after you order, so it ships from Tokyo in about 1 week.
