●About Fujin & Raijin

Fujin and Raijin are fearsome Japanese gods of weather. Fujin, the god of wind, is often depicted with wild hair and holding a bag of wind. Fujin also has a “good” side and is known for creating the monsoons that protected Japan against invading Mongols in the 13th Century. Raijin, the Japanese god of lighting, thunder and storms, is often shown with hammers and surrounded by drums which he strikes to cause thunder and lightning. On his “good” side, Raijin is known for bringing rain needed for agriculture. These depictions of Fujin Raijin are inspired by artwork from the Momoyama and early Edo periods.
