Explanation and Etymology - (元日) ganjitsu

日日 It is a Japanese word composed of two Kanji: 元 (gen) which means "origin" or "beginning" and 日 (nichi) which means "day". Together, 元日 (ganjitsu) means "New Year's Day" or "first day of the year". It is a national holiday in Japan, celebrated on January 1, marking the beginning of the new year. The celebration includes visits to temples and sanctuaries, as well as traditional New Year's food, Oschi-ryori. Ganjitsu's tradition dates back to the Nara period (710-794), when the Chinese lunar calendar was adopted in Japan. The change to the solar calendar occurred during the Meiji period (1868-1912), but the celebration of Ganjitsu remained an important cultural and religious holiday.
