Ex Hex

Thursday June 26, 2008
This is cute- it seems a particular Shinto shrine in Kyoto has earned a particular reputation for aiding adherents in severing ties with unpleasant people, especially exes. The Mainichi Daily News reports that the shrine ios so popular it has hundreds of thousands of prayers plastered to it- so many, in fact, that it resembles an igloo.

Is there a picture? I know there are some shrines where pictures aren’t allowed, but if there isn’t at this one, I’d like to see it. :)
