Toyoaki Festival - Toyoaki Festival

Japanese: 豊明節会 - とよのあかりのせちえ
Toyoaki Festival - Toyoaki Festival

This is a banquet held on the day of the dragon after the Niiname Festival, and is a Shinto ritual for offering new rice. The rice of the year is offered to the gods, and it is also the day when the emperor eats it for the first time. The emperor appears at the Burakuin or Shishinden, gives sake to the crown prince and other ministers, and has the local people of Yoshino play the uta flute. The head priest of the Ooutadokoro also leads the poets in singing the Gosetsu song, and the Gosetsu dancer performs the Gosetsu dance on stage. This event was held during the reign of Emperors Tenmu and Shomu shortly after the Taika Reforms (645), but was temporarily discontinued after the Onin War (1467-77). It was revived in 1688 (Genroku 1). Later, in 1740 (Genbun 5), the ceremony was completely recreated.

Japanese:

新嘗祭(にいなめのまつり)の後にくる辰(たつ)の日に行う饗宴(きょうえん)で、新穀供御の神事。その年の稲を神に供え、天皇が初めて召し上がる日でもある。天皇が豊楽院(ぶらくいん)あるいは紫宸殿(ししんでん)に出御し、皇太子以下群臣に酒などを賜り、吉野の国栖人(くずびと)たちに歌笛を奏させる。また大歌所(おおうたどころ)の別当が歌人を率いて五節の歌をうたい、五節舞姫が舞台で五節舞を舞う。この行事は大化改新(645)後まもなく、天武(てんむ)、聖武(しょうむ)天皇のころに行われていたが、応仁(おうにん)の乱(1467~77)後一時中絶した。そして1688年(元禄1)に再興されている。その後、1740年(元文5)になると、儀式も完全に再現されるようになった。
