[EVENT] New Year's event

■ Mochi throwing & mochi pounding
The origin of the mochi-throwing ceremony is said to have originated from the "Sanpei-no-gi" ritual, in which mochi and coins are scattered at the "topping-out ceremony" of a building to ward off misfortune. Mochi is also considered a sacred food to welcome the New Year deity, and mochi-pounding is considered an auspicious event to pray for the health and prosperity of the family.
