Toshigami (年神 or 歳神, Toshigami or Tomo, lit. "year god"), also known as Ōtoshi-no-kami (大年神, lit. "great year god"), is a Japanese kami and a part of the Shinto pantheon. Etymology [ edit ]
Daikoku-sama (大黒様, だいこくさま) Japanese: 大国主神: Major cult center: Izumo Taisha, Ōmiwa Shrine and others: Color: Black: Texts: Kojiki, Nihon Shoki, Izumo Fudoki and others: Genealogy; Parents: Ame-no-Fuyukinu and Sashikuniwakahime Susanoo-no-Mikoto and Kushinadahime (Nihon Shoki) Siblings: Unnamed eighty brothers: Consort
Ōgetsu-hime is married to Hayamato (羽山戸神, Hayamato-no-kami), who is the son of Toshigami through his wife Amechikarumizu-hime (天知迦流美豆比売) in the Kojiki, making Hayamato her great-grandnephew through her brother Ōyamatsumi. In some legends, Ukemochi is also married to Inari [3] and in others, she is Inari.
Thus it is a kind of toshigami. The practice has shifted over the years. According to 20th century descriptions, the namahage would typically receive mochi (rice cakes) from the households they visited, [3] but newlywed couples were supposed to play host to them in full formal attire and offer them sake and food. [3]
The fundamental function of the New Year ceremonies is to honor and receive the toshigami (deity), who will then bring a bountiful harvest for farmers and bestow the ancestors' blessing on everyone." After January 15 (or in many instances the 19th) the kadomatsu is burned to appease the kami or toshigami and release them.
There is debate about the origin of the kami with some saying they originated in Matsunoo Taisha and others saying they originated in Hiyoshi Taisha. [2]The first mention of the kami Oyamakui is recorded in Kojiki, written in the 8th century AD, which states that this god resides at Mount Hiei, which is located immediately to the west of Hiyoshi Taisha.
