[[File:shide 300px.jpg|frame]] ''Shide'' are paper tassels with a zigzag shape, associated with Shinto. They are sometimes seen hanging from ropes, known as ''shimenawa'', found at [[Shrines and Temples|shrines]] or other sacred places, often trees or boulders. They are also found on ''haraegushi'' / ''ōnusa'' / ''gohei'', wooden rods used in Shinto rituals. A ''gohei'' has two ''shide'', whereas the other types have more than that. Also, some ''gohei'' are handheld (like the other types), whereas other larger ones are stationary standing features of shrines.▼

A rope hung with ''shide'' represents a boundary between the sacred and profane. When hung from a wooden rod, they are used for purification.
