Izanami and Izanagi, celestial deities, stood on the Floating Bridge of Heaven, stirring the ocean with a jeweled spear to create Onogoro Island. They descended and gave birth to the Japanese islands and the kami (gods). Tragedy struck when Izanami died giving birth to the fire god Kagutsuchi. Overcome with grief, Izanagi ventured into Yomi, the underworld, to bring her back. However, Izanami had become a decayed figure of death, and her anger forced Izanagi to flee. Upon escaping, Izanagi performed a purification ritual, birthing more gods and reaffirming the balance of life and death. This myth illustrates the origins of Japan, the inevitability of mortality, and the spiritual practice of purification.
