A deity of Japanese mythology. Enshrined in Ise shrine. Amaterasu was the daughter of Izanagi and Izanami. She was the older sister of Susa no O. She was born from Izanagi's left eye and ordered to rule Taka Amano Hara. She was angry at Susa no O's violent acts and hid herself inside of the Amano Iwayato. Then the heaven and the world turned black. The Yaoyorozu gods were worried, they planned to let her come out. When they were having a big party in front of the Amano Iwayato, surprising Amaterasu opened the door. Then Amano Tajikara Onokami pulled her out and blicked up the door.
