Okomu no kata, also known by her Buddhist honorary name Hôshin-in, was a concubine of [[Tokugawa Tsunayoshi]].
She gave birth to Ienobu's first son, a boy named Iechiyo, on [[1707]]/7/11, and was promoted within the hierarchy of the [[Ooku|Ôoku]] as a result; granted the status of ''[[oheya]]'', she was given her own room within the Ôoku compound. However, little Iechiyo died two months after being born.
