Speaking of summer
Beautiful blue sky, white clouds and emerald green sea! !!
Yes, it's Okinawa. ←Oh...
So this time I live.
About the guardian deity [Shisa] in Okinawa Prefecture
A little more detail.
[Who is Shisa in the first place? ]
"Shisa" is a dialect of Okinawa prefecture and is "lion".
I'm a lion.
I'm the king of beasts.
The fangs are fine,
There are a lot of curly hair around his face
You can imagine it.
The blue shisa I drew above is a "male".
That's right,,
Do you often see two Shisa lined up side by side? ??
In fact, they are lined up with males and females!
(Huh? The female also has hair, but it didn't come out when I looked it up. Forgive me)
Now,
I hope you can take a look here.
The right is male and the left is female.
What do you think is different other than colors and patterns? ??
Yes Yes,
Take a look at your mouth ...! !!
On the right is a male who opens his mouth and invites happiness.
The left side is a scalpel that closes his mouth and tries not to miss his happiness.
The two of them are doing a very good job ...!
By the way,
It seems that the direction to put it is also firmly decided on the left and right ^ ^
[Why do you often see it at the entrance ...? ]
Shisa seems to have a barrier between males and females!
Using that barrier, he protects his house by glaring at him.
Get rid of evil through the barrier
Feel at ease and refreshed
Humans can enter the house ♪
that's why,
Originally, it seems that they will not be displayed side by side next to each other.
After I heard this
Shisa in the car
I put it on the right and left ends of the windshield inside the car lol
…
How was that?
I know Shisa, but
I think there are few people who knew the meaning ...?
Best of all if you enjoyed it (^^ ♪
