授与所ではお守りやお札を受けることができます。お守りは安全や健康、学業等、の願いに対応しています。明治神宮では相和守という、夫婦楠にあやかり境内の楠の芳香をしみこませた夫婦のお守りを授与しています。お守りは通常、願いが成就するまでカバンやポーチ、ポケット等に取り付けたり入れたりして使われます。お守りは開封しないようにしましょう。

Amulets known as omamori and protective talismans known as ofuda are available here. There are omamori for traffic safety, health, or success in education. Meiji Jingu also offers the sowa mamori, a special omamori for luck in love, infused with the aroma of camphor trees and inspired by the Meoto Kusu husband and wife camphor trees. Omamori are usually attached to or put into a bag, purse or pocket, and kept until they have fulfilled their purpose. The amulets should not be opened.
