History

The Yasuuchi Hachiман Jinja in Enkaiji has long been revered as the guardian deity of women and children. Through countless seasons witnessed by the kitsune, expectant mothers have offered prayers for safe childbirth, and many lives have been protected. The combination of the power of mother earth and divine protection brings forth new life in endless succession—witnessing this is joy for the kitsune.
