NAME:  Takemikazuchi


          DESCRIPTION
          Is a deity in Japanese mythology, considered a Kami of thunder
          and sword.  Takemikazuchi's sword aided Jimmu in his subju-
          gation of the east. At Kumano, the emperor and his troops were
          either struck unconscious by the appearance of a bear or severe-
          ly debilitated by the poison fumes spewed out by local Kami. A
          man named Takakuraji presented a gift of a sword, the emperor
          awoke, and without him hardly brandishing this weapon, the
          evil deities of Kumano were spontaneously cut down. When
          Jimmu inquired, Takkuraji explained that he had a vision in a
          dream where Amaterasu and Takamusubi were about to com-
          mand Takemikazuchi to descend to earth once again to pacify
          the lands, this time to assist the emperor.  However, Takemizu-
          chi replied that it would be sufficient to send down the sword he
          used during his campaigns, and, boring a hole through Takaku-
          raji's storehouse, deposited the sword, bidding the man to pre-
          sent it to Emperor Jimmu. That sword bore the names of Futsu-                              Points
          no-mitama, “August-Snap-Spirit”, Saji-futsu-no-kami, “Deity
          Thrust-Snap”, Mika-futsu no kami, “Deity Awful-Snap”.  This                                Ki Energy: 148
          sword is the main dedication kept at Isonokami Shrine.
