NAME: Tsukuyomi No Mikoto
DESCRIPTION
The moon Kami in Shinto. Tsukuyomi was the second of the
"three noble children" born when Izanagi-no-Mikoto, the Kami
who created the first land, Onogoro-shima, was cleansing him-
self of his sins while bathing himself after escaping the under-
world and the clutches of his enraged dead wife, Izanami-no-
Mikoto. Tsukuyomi was born when he washed out of Izanagi-
no-Mikoto's right eye. After climbing a celestial ladder, Tsu-
kuyomi lived in the heavens, also known as Takamagahara, Points
with his sister Amaterasu Omikami, the sun Kami, who also
later became his wife. Tsukuyomi angered Amaterasu when he Ki Energy: 147
killed Uke Mochi, the Kami of food. Amaterasu once sent Tsu- Exp. Points: 538
kuyomi to represent her at a feast presented by Uke Mochi. The
Kami created the food by turning to the ocean and spitting out a
fish, then facing a forest and spitting out game, and finally turn-
ing to a rice paddy and coughing up a bowl of rice. Tsukuyomi
was utterly disgusted by the fact that, although it looked exquis-
ite, the meal was made in a disgusting manner, and so he killed
her. Soon, Amaterasu learned what happened and she was so
angry that she refused to ever look at Tsukuyomi again, forever
moving to another part of the sky. This is the reason that day
and night are never together.
