A Short Season

Cherry blossoms last only a week or two. In Japan they stand for impermanence and the brevity of life.

The idea is called mono no aware, the pathos of things. Beauty matters more because it passes.

The Hanami Tradition

Hanami, or flower viewing, appeared in the Heian period. Its first meaning was tied to the changing seasons and the harvest.

Today families gather under the trees from late March to early April. This sakura incense sticks blend suits that mood. Find more in our Museumize incense collection.

New Beginnings
