History
Chinzaku Reifufu Jinja, enshrined in Onmyo-cho in Nara-shi, is a rare shrine throughout the nation deeply connected to onmyo-do (the way of yin and yang). Known for its spiritual talismans that pacify calamities and protect dwellings, this is a special shrine with unique significance. With its spiritual power rooted in the religious talismans valued by onmyo-ji practitioners since the Heian period, faith in home safety and warding off evil has continued since ancient times. Even in modern times, those concerned with feng shui and house divination, as well as those praying for blessings upon new construction or moving, visit in great numbers.
