Artist's Comments
dedicate to the valentines day:
おみくじ The omikuji predicts the person's chances of his or her hopes coming true, of finding a good match, or generally matters of health, fortune, life, etc. When the prediction is bad, it is a custom to fold up the strip of paper and attach it to a pine tree in the temple or shrine grounds. A purported reason for this custom is a pun on the word for pine tree (松 matsu) and the verb 'to wait' (待つ matsu), the idea being that the bad luck will wait by the tree rather than attach itself to the bearer. In the event of the fortune being good, the bearer should keep it. It then lists fortunes regarding specific aspects of one's life, which may include any number of the following: 願事 (negaigoto) – one’s wish or desire 待人 (machibito) – a person being waited for 失せ物 (usemono) – lost article(s) 旅立ち (tabitachi) – travel 商い (akinai) – business dealings 学問 (gakumon) – studies or learning 相場 (souba) – market speculation 争事 (arasoigoto) – disputes 恋愛 (renai) – romantic relationships 転居 (tenkyo) – moving or changing residence 出産 (shussan) – childbirth or pregnancy 病気 (byouki) – illness 縁談 (endan) – marriage proposal or engagement |

 reports, 1d 16h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces.

La famosa pipa, quanto me l' hanno rimproverata! Eppure... la potete forse caricare la mia pipa? No, vero? E dunque, se sotto il mio quadro io avessi scritto: "Questa è una pipa", allora sì, che avrei mentito.
