Kukurihime-no-Okami is a deity enshrined at Shirayama Hime Shrine in Ishikawa Prefecture, associated with Mount Hakusan and its long tradition of mountain worship. Her name appears in classical Japanese sources in connection with a mediating role between Izanagi and Izanami, which has led to her being venerated as a deity who reconciles discord and eases troubled bonds between people. Because of this legendary act of mediation, she has come to be popularly associated with matchmaking and harmonious relationships, though such benefits reflect devotional tradition rather than settled doctrine.
