1, 2 and 3 - Kamakura Ebisu(鎌倉えびす) at Hongaku-ji: Celebration of Ebisu, god of commerce. Young women dressed in traditional costumes (Fuku Musume) sell lucky charms made of bamboo and sake. Minamoto no Yoritomo made Ebisu the shogunate's tutelary god, but now people flock to the temple to wish for a good new year. There's a similar event on the tenth too, called Hon Ebisu(本えびす), and this time the girls distribute Fukumochi (rice cakes). 4th - Funaiwai(船祝い) at Koshigoe: See Funaoroshi above.
