  1. Since medieval times Izumo-taisha has proudly asserted that the gods do indeed gather at the shrine each year to discuss important matters.

    Arriving on October 10th, the gods get down to business from the 11th-17th, staying at the shrine.

    From October 18th they depart once more.

  2. 😇👋A MONTH OF NO GODS🧳⛩️

    There is a quaint belief that in the 10th month the gods of Japan congregate for a great gathering to discuss matchmaking at Izumo-taisha (出雲大社) in Shimane Prefecture.

    Only hard-of-hearing Ebisu and the Sun Goddess miss this annual pilgrimage.
