Izumo Taisha

Izumo Taisha is located in Shimane, it is officially Izumo Ooyashiro.

Izumo Taisha is the oldest Shinto shrine in Japan.

Izumo, a country, is known as a God’s country.

Izumo Taisha is the center of places to enshrine

Ookuninushinoookami(大国主大神),called Daikokusama,

who created the world and formed a base of our lives.

In Japanese, October is Kannazuki, meaning no God. That is because eight millions of God’s from All over Japan gather to Izumo Taisha

to talk about things happened in a year, but commonly said about marriage tie. Its Shinto affected all over Japan and it is still the roots of our culture and mind. We are getting them lost after war, but I’d keep up to our descendant cause they are what we are.
