Have you ever wished upon a star? In Japan, there is a popular tradition of making wishes on stars, called "hoshi ni negai wo". It is believed that if you make a wish on a shooting star, it will come true. But did you know that there is a special way to make wishes on stars using a musical notation called "ドレミ" or "doremi"? In this article, we will explore the meaning behind this tradition and how to make wishes using "ドレミ".
The Meaning of "ドレミ"
"ドレミ" is a musical notation used in Japan to represent the notes of a musical scale. It consists of seven notes, each represented by a different letter: do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, and ti. In the context of making wishes on stars, each note represents a different aspect of the wish.
The Steps to Making a Wish
To make a wish using "ドレミ", follow these simple steps: 1. Find a clear night sky where you can see the stars. 2. Wait for a shooting star to appear. 3. As soon as you see the shooting star, start singing the "ドレミ" scale in your head or out loud. 4. When you reach the note that represents the aspect of your wish you want to focus on, say your wish silently or out loud. 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the shooting star disappears.
The Meaning Behind Each Note
Each note of the "ドレミ" scale represents a different aspect of the wish: - Do represents the beginning of the wish, or the starting point. - Re represents the motivation or reason behind the wish. - Mi represents the goal or desired outcome of the wish. - Fa represents the obstacles or challenges that may arise. - Sol represents the solutions or ways to overcome the obstacles. - La represents the people or resources that may help in achieving the wish. - Ti represents the final result or accomplishment of the wish.
