What does "good luck" look like and how do you achieve it?

"Good luck" in Japan isn't just about finding four-leaf clovers or carrying lucky charms—it's a whole vibe. In this eye-opening book, we dive into how luck isn't just about chance, but about blending symbols and rituals with hard work and a positive mindset.

Nobuo Suzuki, the mastermind behind this exploration, shows us how Japanese icons like the Maneki Neko (that waving "Lucky Cat") and the Daruma (the "Lucky Buddha") are more than just cute figurines—they're symbols of resilience and goal-setting. We even get introduced to quirky modern symbols like the "Golden Poop" (yep, you read that right!).

But it's not just about collecting lucky trinkets—it's about building a sense of community and positivity that uplifts everyone. Luck isn't some external force—it's about understanding ourselves and connecting with others to shape our own destiny with pride and joy. So, if you're ready to manifest some good vibes, dive into this book and start shaping your own luck! 🍀
