Hatamono Jinja Katano City, Osaka Prefecture
She is the god to connect with when one wishes for success in love once and for all or for a person whose love is unrequited. If you simply wish to meet a nice partner from, or walk together happily with a nice boyfriend or girlfriend, a visit to the shrine is recommended too.
In the Kogoshui*(Shinto document of the Heian era), when Amaterasu hid in Ama no iwato*(Rocky Celestial Cave) she was the deity who weaved Kamui*(Garment of Gods) to present to Amaterasu and she is the goddess equal `Orihime'*(Vega) of the Tanabata*(Festival of the Weaver/Star Festival).
She is the deity who was good at weaving Teni*(heavenly garment) which Tennin*(celestial beings) and Tennyo*(heavenly maidens) wear. On Ama no Kaguyama hill, she raised silkworm and wove, but she also wove stars into fabric so she is considered to be the god of weaving with Amenohadutionokami who sealed the god of stars in fabric.
She's also named Amanoyachizihimenomikoto and Amanoeorihimenomikoto. She's also identified with Takuhatachijihime.
