On the 1^st of January, 2004, KAIUN MATSUBARA ROKUSHA MAIRI has started by gathering six JINJAs where are located in Matsubara and Shinto priests are stationed , such as AO JINJA, AMAMIKOSO JINJA, GADOU-HACHIMANGU, SHIBAGAKI JINJA, NUNOSE JINJA and MIYAKE JINJA.
　It’s held through 1^st to 15^th of January. You can get wooden EMA which you can get six stamps on at JINJA you first visited. After getting six stamps on EMA, you can get HARIKO as memento at JINJA you first got EMA. By keeping visiting JINJA by MATSUBARA ROKUSHA MAIRI every year, you can collect twelve mementos for twelve zodiacs.
　By the earthquake in Kobe, we felt its disaster familiar to us but people not facing to their reality think they are not their business. The reason they think like that is people don’t understand or know well around their living area. Shinto priest, GUJI, thought what he can do for those its matter and 　KAIUN MATSUBARA ROKUSHA is originated by him and other 5 shinto priests in MATUBARA are agreed with his idea.
