Raiden

Lux Ferre September 21, 2017

Raiden (Raijin, Kaminarisan) In Japanese mythology, thunder god, portrayed with the features of a Demon: horns on his head, a tusk, and a wide mouth. Sometimes he carries a circle of 12 round, flat drums, which he beats with sticks; or he is portrayed caught by
Uzume, goddess of mirth, who is shown in her bath. Raiden likes to eat navels. Thus, children are dressed to cover their abdomens.
