Amatsumikaboshi


In Japanese mythology, Ama-tsu-mika-boshi, also called Ame-no-kagase-o, was originally a malevolent Shinto god.
Under Chinese Buddhist influence, the god was identified with Myōken either as the pole star or Venus, before being combined with the god of all stars, Ama-no-mi-naka-nushi.
He is mentioned in passing in the Nihon Shoki as being subdued by Takemikazuchi during the latter's conquest of the land of Izumo, and is sometimes identified with the figure of Takeminakata in the Kojiki.
