Sugawara no Michizane(菅原道真)

Sugawara no Michizane was so intelligent that the Emperor highly recognized his talents and promoted him to a high position in the court. However, this led to tragedy: his rivals framed him with false accusations, resulting in his exile to Kyushu, far from Kyoto, where he later passed away.

After his death, his spirit was said to have ascended into the sky and become a vengeful god of thunder, striking his rivals’ homes with fierce thunderstorms. Terrified by these disasters, the people built this shrine to appease his spirit and worship him as the deity of thunder　in the year of 947.

In fact, the name “Tenjin” originally means “the God of Thunder”!

bud(蕾)

This kanji consists of two parts: the ‘grass’ radical on top, and the kanji for ‘thunderstorm’ below. So, why does this kanji mean ‘bud’? It is said that the flash of a thunderstorm resembles a flower bud bursting with bright light.

この漢字は、上部の植物を表す「くさかんむり」と、下部の「雷（かみなり）」の2つからできています。雷のピカッとした稲妻の閃光が、ぱっとまばゆく花開くつぼみの姿に似ていることから、植物の「つぼみ（蕾）」を意味するようになりました。
