In ancient
time, each month was named after the characteristics of
stages of growing plants. Then people started using 12 animal
signs for time and directions. Japanese 12 animal signs
were based on the ancient Chinese concept. People believed
that every sixty year, there is a specific time which might
be the same as cycle of human beingﾕs life. Over thousands
years, Japanese people have believed the concept of the
wisdom of ancient days. We produce lanterns with 12 animals.
In Japan, it is good to have something with your animal,
so why donﾕt you decorate your rooms with lantern with you
animal? 12 animal lanterns may bring you good fortune.
