Get your beans! 今日は節分ですよ!
The 鬼 represents the harsh winter and the 豆 represent the seeds of Spring. In this ritual of throwing 豆, you are chasing away the 鬼, Winter and planting the seeds of Spring.
Is this any crazier than a groundhog coming out of hibernation and seeing or not seeing its shadow to predict 6 more weeks of Winter or 6 more weeks to spring?
