| | |smt5v=One of the Kunitsukami in Japanese mythology. Daughter of Oyamatsumi. | ||
Younger sister of Iwanaga-hime. Her name means "a woman who blooms and flourishes like a cherry blossom." She is considered one of the most beautiful of Japan's myriad gods. She fell in love with Ninigi of the Amatsukami and became his wife. After she became pregnant in just one night, he questioned whether the child was truly his, and therefore godly. As proof that the child was of the Amatsukami, she barricaded herself in a birthing-house and set it on fire, then successfully gave birth. Originally, she is said to have been a god who governed water. However, this legacy of giving birth in a fire earned her regard as the goddess of volcanoes, and she is identified with the volcano spirit Asama no Okami. | |||
