This era, at first glance, might seem like the zenith of civilization. However, beneath the surface, there’s an intense tension as if the world is on the brink of collapse, burdened by environmental destruction, ethical decay, economic runaway, information manipulation, artificial earthquakes, chemtrails, and a series of soul trials through pandemics. It is precisely in such turbulent times that the existence of Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto (国常立尊) becomes noteworthy. The divine truth of the spiritual realm articulated by Onisaburo Deguchi, and his prophecies of Earth’s “Reconstruction and Restoration” (Tatekae Tate-naoshi), can be said to be divine revelations that must be deciphered right now.
Who Was Onisaburo Deguchi?
Onisaburo Deguchi (1871–1948) was the co-founder of Omoto-kyo, known as a spiritual prophet and religious reformer. He was not merely a religious figure but displayed versatile talents in prophecy, art, politics, and thought, earning him the title “Nostradamus of Japan.” His prophecies are linked to the concept of “Tatekae Tate-naoshi,” which involves major natural disasters, wars, and apocalyptic global changes in Japan.
Who is Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto?
Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto is a deity whose name appears in both the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, revered as one of the first gods to emerge during the creation of heaven and earth. As his name suggests (“Kuniyo-tokotachi” meaning “eternally establishing the land”), he is a very ancient and fundamental divine spirit who presides over the very framework of the Earth itself.
However, Onisaburo Deguchi of Omoto-kyo revealed even deeper spiritual truths about this deity. According to him, Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto is not merely a mythological figure but the “God of Earth’s Genesis,” who, along with dragon deities, “repaired and solidified” the primordial Earth, which was like a muddy sea. He was also a Dragon Race deity.
What is the Dragon Race? (This link from the original text directs to a blog post about the Dragon Race.) “All Japanese are of the Dragon Race”—I’ve seen this phrase. More people are embracing this expression on YouTube, and it seems like a proud and somewhat hopeful phrase. However, shouldn’t we take a calm look at it for a moment? Because for different people…
It is said that the continents and mountain ranges of the Earth were shaped by the traces of the dragon deity followers who swam across them. Large dragons formed major mountain ranges, and smaller dragons formed minor ones, and through their activity, “land and sea” were separated.
The Being Sealed as “Ushitora no Konjin”
However, Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto, being excessively strict and valuing discipline, gradually faced opposition from other deities for being “too severe.” Eventually, he was destined to be sealed in the “Ushitora” (艮)—the northeast direction, or the Japanese archipelago itself. This sealing led him to be feared by the alternate name of “Ushitora no Konjin (艮の金神),” revered as a “cursing god” or “araha-gami” (fierce god). Especially in the modern state system after the Meiji era, his very existence was intentionally sealed and ceased to be spoken of.
But Onisaburo Deguchi stated: “Only the God who created this world can reconstruct it.”
Onisaburo Deguchi’s Spiritual Prophecies: “Reconstruction and Restoration”
Onisaburo Deguchi’s prophecies are diverse, but among the most famous is his apocalyptic prophecy known as the “Siberian Fox Prophecy.” This vision describes global chaos and collapse, invasion from the north, the dropping of atomic bombs, the fall of America, comet collisions, and pole shifts—truly a “modern apocalypse.”
And at the final stage, it is foretold that the “Iwato-biraki (opening of the heavenly rock cave) will occur, and Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto will manifest.”
“The time for Kuninotokotachi-no-Okami’s Iwato-biraki has come. With a hand on solid rock, shaking it down to the path of hell.”
This “Iwato-biraki” is not just a mythological ritual. It signifies that “hidden truths will be exposed, and humanity’s false civilization will come to an end.” The sealed Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto will revive, cleanse the world of evil, and a new divine rule and the appearance of the true sun god are foretold.
And in the subsequent era of “Reconstruction,” a being possessing the spirit of Christ will appear, and a new Earth civilization of love and harmony will be built.
The Relationship Between Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto and Susanoo-no-Mikoto
The Truth and Story of Ancient Mythology: Susanoo-no-Mikoto, a Foreign God — The History of Conflict Between Izumo and the Tenson Clan (This link from the original text directs to a blog post about Susanoo-no-Mikoto.)
It is interesting that Onisaburo Deguchi identified Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto with Susanoo-no-Mikoto (スサノオノミコト). (While there are various theories, some Shinto spiritualists and channelers also advocate a reincarnation theory, stating that “Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto later appeared as Susanoo-no-Mikoto.”)
Susanoo-no-Mikoto is generally known as the “God of the Sea, Storms, and Destruction,” but his destruction is a “purification for restoring order” and a “destruction for new creation.” In other words, he embodies the very “divine will” to reset the world once and rebuild a new order.
Furthermore, Susanoo-no-Mikoto had eight children (Yatsuko), and in texts like Hotsuma Tsutae, they are said to have scattered to various parts of the world, becoming the “Goshiki-jin (Five-Colored People)” and establishing human civilizations. This suggests a connection with global creation myths.
The Jomon Period and Hotsuma Tsutae
The Roots of the Japanese Soul and Ancient Memories (This link from the original text directs to a blog post about the roots of the Japanese soul.) “History I Want You to Know Series!!!” Behind our identity as “Japanese” lies an ancient history of souls that far transcends imagination. This time, I’d like to introduce a story that goes back to the very formation of this Earth and the universe. All life began from a divine分御霊 (wakemitama, divided spirit)…
The Jomon period is generally believed to have been a time of hunter-gatherer life, but the image of Jomon people from a document called “Hotsuma Tsutae” is completely different. There, Jomon people are depicted as descendants of Mu or Lemuria, a people with highly developed spirituality and a consciousness of coexistence with nature. They had no concept of ownership, considering everything a divine entrustment, and built a civilization of love and harmony without conflict.
- Amakami and Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto: The “Amakami” (天神, Heavenly Gods) appearing in Hotsuma Tsutae are earthly leaders prior to the Emperors, i.e., incarnations of gods. Among them, a crucial figure is Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto. He is said to have solidified the Earth’s muddy sea along with dragon deities, at the command of Amenominakanushi-no-Kami, separating land and sea. The mountain ranges and topography are considered the traces of the dragon deities’ passage, truly befitting the title of “God of Earth’s Genesis.”
- The Eight Princes: Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto is said to have had eight children: E, Hi, Ta, Me, To, Ho, Ka, Mi. They are also considered the Goshiki-jin and are said to have traveled to various parts of the world to build civilizations. (Susanoo-no-Mikoto also has eight children.)
- Me-no-Mikoto: Iraq (Sumerian civilization)
- Hi-no-Mikoto: North America (Native Americans)
- Ho-no-Mikoto: India (mythological gods)
- Mi-no-Mikoto: Korea
- Other princes also traveled to China, etc. This tradition of the eight princes is also said to be the origin of the place name Hachioji in Tokyo.
Onisaburo Deguchi also emphasized the concept of the “Goshiki-jin,” leading to the philosophy of “world unification” (all humanity are siblings) and “Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto as the ancestor of all humanity,” from the perspective that people all over the world are descendants of the Five-Colored People.
Ancient Truth: Japanese Mythology and the Dragon Race (This link from the original text directs to a blog post about Japanese mythology and the Dragon Race.) Hello. This time, I’d like to talk a little about “the truth hidden behind Japanese mythology.” The myths depicted in the “Kojiki” and “Nihon Shoki” might have another aspect, different from the surface history we learned in school. The birth of the Japanese archipelago and Izanagi…
- Rule by To-no-Mikoto and the Beginning of the Marriage System: To-no-Mikoto succeeded as the second generation, and even the third generation, Toyokunnunu-no-Mikoto, ruled the Earth for approximately 10,000 years. From the fourth generation onwards, governance by male-female pairs began for the first time, establishing the institution of “marriage (Totsugi).” It is also said that beings were previously hermaphroditic.
🔚 Conclusion
The future conveyed by Onisaburo Deguchi’s prophecies is not merely an apocalyptic vision of terror, but a hopeful vision that promotes humanity’s spiritual evolution.
“Destruction is a prerequisite for creation. The true dawn arrives after the deepest darkness.”
What we can do now is purify our inner hearts and restore harmony with nature and the cosmos. That, perhaps, is the “Iwato-biraki of the heart” for welcoming the reappearance of Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto.

This is the background of that period, known as the “Jomon Period,” established by Kunitokotachi-no-mikoto.
