History

Byakko

This shrine carries the divine presence of Okuninushi no Mikoto, the great god of en-musubi, brought here from the ancient Izumo Taisha in Shimane. In the Meiji era, the wish to spread his blessings to the people of the Kanto region gave birth to this branch shrine. Okuninushi holds dominion over all bonds — the ties between lovers, the connections forged in commerce, the friendships that shape a life. Countless souls have stood before this shrine in Kamakura, hands pressed together, whispering prayers for good fortune and meaningful love. The same sacred energy that pulses through the great hall of Izumo lives here too, quietly weaving the threads of fate for each and every soul who visits.
