Located in Hoshino City, Yamanashi Prefecture, this shrine features the main hall (honden), believed to have been rebuilt in the mid-Edo period, and a 'Love-Connecting Zelkova' tree over 700 years old, both designated as municipal cultural properties. It is known for the 'Tsutsu-zuyu Shinki' (Cylinder Porridge Ritual) performed during the Little New Year, where the number of rice grains is used to divine good or bad luck.

History

According to one theory, the shrine was founded in 864 CE (Jogan 6). It is identified as a shrine listed in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex), which records 'There is a Homimi Shrine in Kai Province.' In 1275 CE (Kenji 1), the Jugojo Shrine was enshrined based on the Five Elements theory of calendar divination. In 1534 CE (Bunmei 3), the Tsutsu-zuyu Shinki was performed by order of Takeda Shingen. Due to repeated mergers, the shrine enshrines many deities and currently holds the status of a Third-Class Shrine.
