Personal information | |

|
Consort | Yashimajinumi[2]: 277–278 |
Children | Fuha-no-Mojikunusunu [ja][1][2]: 277–278 |
Her name means "Blossoms-of- the-Trees-Falling-Princess".[4]
According to the kojiki she is the spouse of Yashimajinumi and daughter of Ōyamatsumi[1][2]: 277–278 and thus and the mother of Fuha-no-Mojikunusunu [ja][2]: 277–278 She is an ancestess of Ōkuninushi.[5][2]: 277–278
Her sister is Konohanasakuya-hime[6] the volcano goddess worshipped at Sengen shrines[7] and wife of Ninigi[8][9]
While the Kojiki covers this narrative of the ancestry of Okuninushi.[10][11][12]: 29–30 The Nihon Shoki on the other hand omits the entire narrative of the ancestry of Okuninushi from Susanoo and has him as a direct son, skipping the section where Konohanachiru-hime is mentioned,[13][12]: 29–30 however it references the kojiki alternative narrative.[14]
The Yu-Gi-Oh! card Chirubimé is based on her.[15]
