Sashikuni Wakahime [ja; en:draft] (刺国若比売) was a Japanese deity associated with Susanoo-no-Mikoto and the Izumo Province. She is the daugher of Sashikuni Ōkami [ja; en:draft; simple; fr], and the husband of Ame-no-Fuyukinu [ja; en] and the mother of Ōkuninushi[5]: 278 

Overview[change | change source]

In the Kojiki, she is said to be the son of the daugher of Sashikuni Ōkami [ja; en:draft; simple; fr] . When she saw her son, Okuninushi, killed by the eighty gods [ja], she grieved and prayed to Kamimusubi no Kami [en; fr; ja] of Takamagahara, who sent her son , Akebihime and Hamagurihime, to revive him. However, Okuninushi was once again killed by the schemes of the eighty gods [ja], so he was resurrected once again and had his son go to the land of the tree of Ooyabiko [ja] .

In the Awaka Shrine [en; ja] book " Awaka Daimyojin Genki [en; ja] ," she is described as Sashikushiwakahime .

The sacred tomb of Sashikoni Wakahime is located within the grounds of Miyagi Suwa Shrine in Tatsuno Town, Nagano Prefecture . [6]

"Sashikuni" (刺国) indicates a claim of territorial ownership through the act of "piercing" or "marking" (刺す). "Waka" (若) refers to "daughter," implying a relation to her father "Dai" (大), meaning "great." The absence of the word "Mikoto" (命) suggests a shamanic or priestess-like connection. This phrase could thus be interpreted as "the daughter priestess who claims territory," indicating a young female shamanic figure with a role in asserting territorial claims. [7] .
