[Tea utensils/tea ceremony tools, decorative fan] Hand-painted, Kasuga-like Ushiho, by Souya Hisada, approx. 36.6cm

●Haru no hi ha gyu honinitari (The days move like a snail's pace in spring)...The length of the day is a word that represents spring, and autumn refers to the long nights.
In spring, the days seem to get longer with each passing day, while in autumn the sun sets earlier.
Just as the reading suggests, the long days of the year are like a snail's walk, and it can be interpreted as meaning to spend the time leisurely and without rushing, just like the long days.
Although spring is moving at a snail's pace, the days are getting longer with each passing day.
The path of training won't progress quickly, but you should move forward slowly and steadily.
