It is Risshun, beginning of spring today according to the old lunar calendar.

The phrase 立春大吉roughly means “Beginning of spring; Excellent fortune.” I read somewhere that all the letters in this phrase are symmetrical, which is supposed to bring good luck.

I am afraid my pretending to be a sort on avant-garde calligrapher has spoiled the effect, though.

今日は立春ですが、字全部が左右対称なところがめでたいのだと何かで読んだように思います。

こんな風にしてしまったら台無しですけどね。
