Umi Shrine Pilgrimage Guide
Umi Shrine is a shrine famous for severing ties, and enshrines Kotosaka-no-O-Mikoto, a god who symbolizes the elimination of bad ties. Severing ties is not only for breakups between men and women or workplace relationships, but also for giving you the determination and courage to forge a new path, and is also effective in purifying your mind from illness, bad habits, grudges, etc.
During the experience, your guide will provide a detailed explanation of the origins of good luck and severing ties, as well as how to visit the shrine. After praying for severing ties, you can pray for a good relationship at Enmusubi Shrine on the grounds, and experience the process of cutting off bad ties and then forming a new one. We also recommend planning to pray for a good relationship at Izumo Taisha Shrine or Yaegaki Shrine after severing ties at this shrine.
