撒く　scatter
She scattered the seed in the yard.
免れる　get rid of
I can’t seem to get rid of this headache.
悪を追い払い福をもたらす
Red color keeps away evil spirits and brings good luck.

Today is Setubun in Japan. We play the bean-throwing at home. In this day we scatter baked soybeans on outdoor and indoor, calling "Devils out. Good luck in."
The bean-throwing is called as Mamemaki. We believe that Mamemaki gets rid of evil spirits and brings good luck.
（今日は節分である。豆まきを楽しむ。福は内、鬼は外と言いながら、家の内と外に豆をまく。豆まきは、悪を追い払い、福をもたらすと信じられている。）
