History
The female counterpart to Otoko Sengen, this shrine has stood alongside women through life's most sacred moments. From ancient times, women have brought their deepest wishes here for new life. This fox delights in watching over women's strength and gentleness. The continuation of life from mother to daughter to granddaughter—this is the most sacred work of all.
