The season and origin of Hamayumi
Hamaya is literally an ornament to protect oneself from various evil spirits. The bow and arrow were originally weapons, but because of their power, they were thought to have special powers to ward off evil spirits and frighten demons.
Also, when a new prince is born, the Imperial Palace holds a ceremony in which the bowstring is sounded into the sky to ward off evil spirits. This custom comes from the spiritual power of the bow and arrow.
For this reason, during the Edo period, the custom of displaying a hamayumi on a boy's first New Year's Day was born among samurai and townspeople alike, and continues to this day.
