You probably already know that buying a new wallet in the spring is considered good luck, as "haru saifu" (spring wallet) is a homophone for "haru saifu" (wallet that swells with money).
Actually, autumn is also considered a good time for wallets to "ripen" and accumulate money, thanks to the phrase "minori no aki" (fruitful autumn).
It's said that the best time to buy a new wallet for a fruitful autumn is from Risshu (August 7th) to Niinamesai (November 23rd), a festival to pray for a good harvest.
Among those autumn days, the best auspicious days for improving your financial luck are…
◯ October 27th (Wed) Tensha Day
◎ November 12th (Fri) Tensha Day + Taian
Tensha Day, meaning "Heaven's Forgiveness Day," is considered the strongest day on the calendar, where anything started on this day is believed to succeed.
It's a rare auspicious day that only occurs 5-6 times a year, where everything goes well.
November 12th is a particularly auspicious day, as Tensha Day and Taian (a highly auspicious day) overlap!
Since people tend to miss the timing to replace their wallets unless they break, it can be fun to get a new one to coincide with an auspicious day.
It's generally recommended to replace your wallet every three years or so.
If it's been about three years for you, why not take this opportunity to get a new wallet on an auspicious day?
