Tamazume Shrine has long been revered as the Ichinomiya of Suo Province. It is also worshiped as the god of matchmaking, and many lovers come to worship.
The main benefits of Tamazume Shrine are matchmaking, safe childbirth, prosperity in business, improvement in skills, and good fortune in careers. It also attracts worshipers from industries related to jewels, such as the jewelry and gemstone industry, the eyeglass industry, the camera industry, and the watch industry.
The Kurokashiwakei, a national natural monument, is a medium-sized chicken that has been bred in Shimane and Yamaguchi prefectures since ancient times, and there is a stone monument in the grounds of Tamazume Shrine as its birthplace.
[Trivia]
In the past, Kurokashiwa chickens were kept at shrines and on farms as sacred chickens that told the time, and for practical and decorative purposes. In particular, they are known for their long-crowing roosters, whose cries are said to have played a role in telling the time. They also appear in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki as legendary long-crowing chickens.
