#celebration
Now I bet most of you have heard of the famous ‘Coming of Age Day’ (Seijin no Hi・成人の日) which celebrates youths transition into adulthood at the tender age of 20. But here is a celebration which I have noticed most people outside of Japan are not so familiar with, 7-5-3 (Shichi-Go-San・七-五-三) which happens every year on November 15.
7-5-3 (Shichi-Go-San・七-五-三) is day which both celebrates and prays for the growth of healthy children. The significance of the ages 7, 5 and 3 are that they are the celebrated milestone years for children in Japan. Much like how many eastern countries celebrate certain ages, i.e. 3, 10, 13 and 16.
The reasons for these particular ages, dates back to the “medieval” times of samurai and aristocrats families (web-japan.org), these ages saw the following:
- 3 years old: Both boys and girls of 3 years stopped having their hair shaven and were permitted to grow their hair out.
- 5 years old: Boys of 5 years could don a ‘hakama’ in public for the first time.
- 7 years old: Girl could begin using an ‘obi’ sash to tie their kimonos instead of the cords at the age of 7.
By the time of the Edo period (1603-1868) the ‘common’ folk of Japan were also celebrating these customs and began to visit shrines with prayers and offering for their children’s healthy growth. This custom/celebration is not a part of a holiday thus people celebrating this day can often be seen at the shrine the weekend before or after November 15th(ginkoya.com).
Plugging my Witchytok here !! It’s been slow since thinking of what new content to do, while I do have some ideas I am

I’ll be posting more about my work with my deities and channelings, spells, tarot readings and so forth!!
My mum’s and my Birthday are just one day apart so sis bought two 15cm cakes (S$18.90 each) from Emicakes to help us celebrate the occasions. Well, I guess most of you already know which cake is mum getting and which one is mine. :D
TheD24 Durian Fantasy Cake comes with two bite-size D24 durian puffs sitting on top. I messed up during the slicing processing but it does comes with a thick filling of D24 durian between the two chiffon layers. The cake is light and fluffy soft with a strong scent from the king of fruits.
TheFudge Madness Cake has a glossy finishing of chocolate along with edible pearls and white chocolates. It has three denser chocolate cake layers sandwiching two layers of chocolate fudge filling. This cake is rich but not overly sweet with a strong chocolaty flavour from the chocolate fudge. Yum, my kind of a sweet treat… :D
Thank you for 900 followers! I promise you I have something in the works, can’t wait to celebrate! Most likely I will do a celebration in December as I will have the most time then (Christmas Break, money, and more).
Dear foreskin lovers,
We have been a growing community since Day 1, but recently the site has really taken off. Each day, more and more of our fellow foreskin lovers join the club.
In total, there are now more than 2,000 of us.
THANK YOU TO EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU.
It fills me with pride to have such a big reach and I am absolutely positive we can keep the steady growth and reach more milestones in the near future.
