Ajisukitakahikone

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Japanese mythology, Ajisukitakahikone (also Aji-Suki-Taka-Hiko-Ne) is a god of thunder. He is the brother of Takemikazuchi and of Kaminari (Raijin). In infancy, his crying and screaming were so loud that he had to be placed in a boat and sailed around the islands of Japan until he was calm. In adulthood, he was the father of Takitsuhiko, a rain god.
