Shinto ritual offerings hung on trees
Refers to strips of paper, rope, or cloth offered at Shinto shrines, often tied to sacred trees or ropes. A specialized religious term.
I saw ritual paper offerings tied to a tree in the shrine grounds.
Compound of 幣 (hei, 'offering') and 束 (soku, 'bundle'). The exact historical derivation is uncertain, but the term has been used in Shinto contexts for ritual offerings.
