One-eyed Day? Among certain circles, the first day of every month is considered One-eyed Day (Tangan no Hi, 単眼の日) due to the presence of "1" in the date. New Year's Day (1/1) is seen as especially important; when read backwards, New Year's Day (gantan, 元旦) sounds the same as one-eyed (tangan, 単眼).What in the world is that?
