I named it "Lucky Eho-Maki" because I used seven lucky ingredients including lucky colors such as red and yellow: smoked salmon, corn, onion, baby leaves, avocado, mustard mayonnaise, and cracked black pepper.
February 3rd is Setsubun. It is the day before the beginning of Risshun (spring season). On Setsubun, we cleanse away all the evil of the former year and drive away disease-bringing evil spirits for the year to come. This special ritual is called Mamemaki (bean scattering). On this day at night, it is customary now to eat uncut maki-zushi called Eho-Maki ("lucky direction roll") while facing the yearly lucky compass direction, determined by the zodiac symbol of that year.
The lucky direction of the year 2019 is East-Northeast a little bit right. (2019年 平成31年の恵方は 東北東やや右). If you eat Eho-Maki facing in that direction it will bring you a good luck. But just remember you have to close your eyes and eat all without speaking! You can speak after you complete it ;)
My darling always must wear the devil mask for the bean scattering. hehe

Some people substitute the sushi roll with roll cake and other rolled foods these days. Anything that rolls in the fortune is said to be okay ;)
