This means that before asking for something, you need to give something valuable to the one whose help and support you are counting on.  When creating the deck, the author embedded this principle into it and already established a basic positive interaction with all the spirits. The first meaning of any card is "Lesson": you met a supernatural being or phenomenon. What is the meaning of this meeting for you? What has it taught you, how should or should not you behave? What important message did the spirit want to convey to you? The second meaning is "Advice": how can you help the character or object, how can you make their existence better? By giving advice to it, you are also giving advice to yourself. For a closer acquaintance, you can practice a day with the card. Every morning, draw one and carry it with you until bedtime. More detailed instructions and layouts are provided in the accompanying brochure. You can additionally interpret the meanings of the cards as their characters reveal themselves to you through the stories and details of the images. This is the first oracle of energy exchange, where you not only ask for help and advice but also help and give advice yourself. When working with the deck, you will establish relationships with the surrounding world in all its manifestations, learn to interact with unpredictable reality. As an excellent psychological and metaphorical tool, the oracle will help you understand yourself and the nuances of your personality, work through conflicting emotions, and heal your soul. It can also serve as a warning and protective artifact, a helper in getting out of crises, offering guidance on how to solve problems of any complexity, and teaching you how to negotiate about anything and with anyone. When divining, you will be able to learn about the past, present, and future, identify your helper in the world of Japanese supernatural beings, and discover your magical abilities. And with the help of the "yes/no" card, you will be able to get quick and short answers to your questions.
