Konohanasakuya Hime

Konohanasakuya Hime

Ko-no-Hana

Ko-no-hana, ou plus précisément Ko-no-hana-no-sakuya (木花咲耶/木花之佐久夜/木花開耶?), dans la mythologie japonaise est la princesse-fleur et le symbole de la vie terrestre délicate. Elle est la fille du dieu Oho-Yama[1]. Elle est souvent considérée comme un avatar de la vie japonaise, en particulier en raison de son symbole, la fleur du cerisier ou sakura.

Elle est la femme de Ninigi. Elle rencontra le dieu au bord de la mer et ils tombèrent amoureux. Ninigi demanda sa main à Oho-Yama qui lui proposa sa fille aînée, Iwanaga (ja) à la place. Mais Ninigi ne jurait que par Ko-no-hana. Compréhensif, Oho-Yama accepta et le mariage put avoir lieu. Ils eurent trois fils dont Hoderi et Hoori[2].

Cependant, leur mariage ne dura pas : Ninigi était jaloux et suspicieux. De désespoir, Ko-no-hana mit le feu à leur hutte et mourut dans les flammes.
