Ame-no-Hirinome (天比理乃咩命)
Consort of Ame-no-Futodama, associated with prayers being fulfilled and with safety at sea.
Ame-no-Hirinome is the consort of Ame-no-Futodama, the deity who appears in the story of the heavenly rock cave. Her main shrine is Susaki in Awa province, on the far side of Tokyo Bay in what is now Tateyama. Shinagawa Shrine in Tokyo was founded in 1187 when Minamoto no Yoritomo brought her across the bay to that site, and it describes her as the deity of prayers fulfilled and of safety at sea, which follows naturally from a devotion carried by water.
