I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

What you worry about for sports days, festivals, or trips is the weather on the day, right? No matter how hard you prepare, practice, and look forward to it, if it rains, there’s nothing you can do… Just imagining a big event being ruined makes your chest tighten with sadness.

So in this article, we’ll introduce “sunny-day charms” we’d love for you to try if you want to see a beautifully clear blue sky.

The most important thing with charms is to believe, above all, that they will work! Give it a try to help make wonderful memories.

[Make Your Wishes Come True] Collection of Charms to Bring Clear Skies (21–30)

Staring at the sky and casting a spell

When you’re hoping for the sky to clear right now, try this charm of gazing at the sky.

Bring your hands together in front of your face so they lightly touch your cheeks.

Then, look up at the sky from under your brows and focus without blinking for 10 seconds.

During that time, recite: “Dear God, today is an important day.

Please, be in a better mood.

If you make it sunny, I will not forget this kindness.” What matters most is to do it earnestly, as if you are truly speaking to God from your heart.

This short ritual holds strong wishes and sincerity.

By putting your feelings into words, you organize your thoughts and may feel not so much that you’re moving the weather, but that the clouds in your heart are clearing.

Cast a spell on the mirror

A fair-weather charm that requires strong will and faith uses a mirror.

Place a small mirror by your pillow, reflect your own image, and recite ten times: “Amaterasu-ōmikami, please lend me your infinite power.

Is there any being more precious than you?” After that, turn the mirror toward the sun, and it is said that your wish will reach the sky.

Amaterasu-ōmikami has long been worshipped as the sun deity, and the idea is to let your wish ride on that light.

It’s important to speak the words with respect and prayer, and to perform the ritual with sincerity.

Rather than producing immediate results, it is characterized as a ceremony for strongly conveying your intention to the heavens, giving you time to focus deeply.
