Hi everyone. I know i havent been here very long and I shouldnt be "rocking the boat" or whatever, but I think theres something that I want to try to give to this comunity.

First off, Im half-Japanese, and I lived a few months in Kyoto with my mom when dad ran off (long story). I spent a lot of time in the shrines and learned some ofuda talismen and cleansing ceremonies from the miko priestesses. I handled a few omikuji fortune tellings and I brought back a kamitai when I left (mirror imbued with spirit, tecnically I shouldn't have one, but it was a gift).

I came here to learn more about western spells and I really want to teach a few japanese spells too. The problem is that most of the spells here are spoken. Japanese ofuda uses writing to focus kami, so the english text doesnt work for it. Drawing kanji (japanese symbols) is necessary. If this site would allow pictures in spells it could let us diagram symbols (not just kanji, but runes or circles ect).

I really want everyone to grow in these arts and I think that this could help.
