What is something you learnt recently?
Something I learnt recently was the origin of the Japan Football Association logo 🇯🇵⚽
The bird on the logo is a three-legged crow called 八咫烏（やたがらす / Yatagarasu）.
In Japanese mythology, Yatagarasu is a divine guide sent from heaven to lead people in the right direction. It is connected to guidance, wisdom, and good fortune.
The Japan Football Association adopted it as a symbol to represent guidance and success, helping lead Japanese football forward.
I always thought it was just a cool logo… but the story behind it is actually really interesting 😄
