When should you start using your wallet? Explains auspicious days and the period for which it should be left alone
Rather than starting to use your new wallet right after you buy it, it is recommended that you leave it for a few days before taking it out.
It is said that if you start using your new wallet on an auspicious day, your luck will improve.
In this article, we will introduce the auspicious days recommended for starting to use your wallet, the days you should avoid, and the period of time you should let it sit before starting to use it.
What is an auspicious day to start using your wallet?
It is said that if you start using a newly purchased wallet on an auspicious day, it will bring you good luck and improve your fortune.
Here, we will explain the auspicious days to start using a wallet one by one.
Tensha-nichi
Tensha-nichi is considered the most auspicious day in Japan.
It is said to be the day when heaven forgives all sins, and anything you start on Tensha Day will go well.
It is considered a particularly good day to start something new or to try something you have not been able to do before, so it is also a great day to start using a new wallet.
Tensha Day is determined by the season and the zodiac sign, and it only comes about five to six times a year. Therefore, if you want to take out your wallet on this day, it is recommended that you check your schedule well in advance.
Ichiryu Manbai Day
Ichiryu Manbai Day is an auspicious day that originates from the idea that "a single grain of rice will bear ten thousand times as much fruit."
It has long been considered an auspicious day for sowing seeds, but nowadays it is said that "money put into your wallet will come back ten thousand times as much," and it is also said to be a good day to start using a new wallet.
It is said that it is good to start anything related to financial luck on this day.
Tiger Day
Tiger Day is the day that corresponds to the tiger in the Chinese zodiac, and comes around once every 12 days.
It is also known as the day of financial luck.
The yellow stripes on the tiger are considered to be a symbol of financial luck, so this day is considered to be the perfect day to do things related to money.
In addition, as the proverb "a tiger travels a thousand miles and returns a thousand miles" suggests, the tiger is an animal that can travel a thousand miles in a day, and has been passed down since ancient times as an analogy for something that is full of energy and action.
It is said that if you take money out of your wallet on a tiger day, you will get it back right away.
Snake Day
Snake Day (Minohi) is also the day of the snake in the Chinese zodiac, just like Tiger Day, and comes around once every 12 days.
Since ancient times, snakes have been considered messengers and incarnations of Benzaiten, the goddess of wealth. Therefore, it is said that if you do something related to money on a snake day, you will receive the god's help.
Among the snake days, the one that is considered to be particularly auspicious is the Tsuchinotomi day (Tsuchinotomi no Hi), which comes around once every 60 days. Why not consider this as one of the times to take out your wallet?
Taian
Among the Rokuyo days of Sensho, Tomobiki, Senbu, Butsumetsu, Taian, and Shakko, Taian is considered to be the most auspicious day.
Taian is said to be a day when everything goes well, so it is recommended not only for starting to use your wallet, but also for celebrating and making wishes.
Taian comes around once every six days, so it's easier to time your wallet to go out on this day than other lucky days such as Tensha Day. It's also a recommended lucky day if you want to get a new wallet out early.
Your luck will improve even more on days when these lucky days overlap
Although it's rare, there are days when the above lucky days overlap. These days are said to be the "best luck days," and are especially recommended for starting to use your wallet.
These rare days when these lucky days overlap are even featured in the news. It's a good idea to check the days when the lucky days overlap in advance for the year and then decide on the day to go out on your wallet.
Are there any days you should avoid when starting to use a wallet?
While there are auspicious days for starting to use a wallet, there are also days when you should avoid taking it out.
It is a bad day that comes around every 8 days. It is believed that no matter what you do on this day, nothing will go well.
A bad day can overlap with an auspicious day, and in that case, it is said to halve the luck of the auspicious day. Therefore, when you check the auspicious day to start using your wallet, it is a good idea to check whether it overlaps with a bad day.
Is it okay if the day you buy it is not an auspicious day?
Some people may be wondering if it is better to buy a new wallet on an auspicious day.
Basically, it is considered that the day you start using a wallet is more important than the day you buy it. Therefore, even if the day you purchased it is an unlucky day, there will be no problem in terms of luck as long as the day you start using it is an auspicious day.
However, there are of course people who are particular about the purchase date and aim to purchase it on an auspicious day.
However, if you try to aim for an auspicious day for both the purchase date and the day you start using the wallet, the timing may not work out.
It would be counterproductive to accumulate stress because you are unable to change your wallet smoothly, so if it is difficult to match both days to an auspicious day, we recommend that you focus only on the day you start using it.
What is the best time of the year to start using a wallet other than auspicious days?
Apart from auspicious days, there are other times of the year when your financial luck is likely to improve.
It is said that things related to money tend to go well in spring and autumn, so it is especially recommended to start using your wallet on an auspicious day during these times.
Here, we will explain why spring and autumn are good times to start using your wallet.
Spring
The word spring brings to mind images of a wallet full of money, making it a season associated with financial luck.
Please note that spring in this case refers to the period from the beginning of spring around February 4th to around March 4th in the lunar calendar.
Autumn
As the phrase "harvest autumn" suggests, autumn is the season when crops, such as grains and fruits, are harvested in abundance.
Autumn is a time that evokes abundance, so it is also thought that you can get a lot of money.
Specifically, it refers to the period from the autumn equinox around September 23rd to around November 24th.
When should you start using your wallet?
When you start using a new wallet, it is said to be more auspicious if you consider not only the auspicious day but also the time of day.
The recommended time to start using it is the evening hours between 5pm and 11pm. In Feng Shui, this time is thought to increase your luck with money.
For this reason, it is a good idea to organize and replace the contents of your wallet during the night on the day you decide to start using it.
When replacing the contents of your wallet or after you start using it, it is said that your luck will increase if you keep the following things in mind.
Things to keep in mind to improve your luck
-Keep the inside and surroundings of your wallet clean at all times
-Put only carefully selected cards such as credit cards inside
- Store receipts and other paper items separately instead of piling them up in your wallet
How many days should you leave your new wallet before using it?
When you buy a new wallet, it is said that it is better to let it sit for a while before starting to use it right away.
This is because in Feng Shui, it is said that "by letting your wallet rest beforehand, you can store good fortune in it."
Specifically, it is considered best to let it rest for nine days and start using it on the tenth day.
However, depending on the timing of your lucky day to withdraw your wallet, it may be difficult to start using it exactly on the 10th day after purchase.
This number of days is only a guideline, so in reality, it is fine to let it rest for about two weeks. It is a good idea to decide by counting backwards from the date of purchase so that the day you start using the wallet is an auspicious day.
In addition, it is said that if you wrap your new wallet in a clean handkerchief, washi paper, or washi paper when you put it down, your luck will improve.
How much money should you put in your new wallet when you first start using it?
When you start using a new wallet, it is considered good to put more money in it than usual.
This is because it is said that "wallets remember the amount of money you put in them at first." Therefore, it is a good idea to put about 2 to 3 times the amount of money you usually put in your new wallet.
Also, it is said that it is good to try not to increase the amount of money coming in and out too much for a while after you start using your wallet.
The key is to keep the wallet in a state where it has more money than usual for a long time.
However, since you will be carrying a lot of money for a while after you start using it, you need to be careful not to drop your wallet or have it stolen.
