Kamimusubi (神産巣日), also known as Kamimusuhi among other variants, is a kami and god of creation in Japanese mythology. They are a hitorigami, and the third of the first three kami to come into existence (Kotoamatsukami),[1] alongside Ame-no-Minakanushi and Takamimusubi, forming a trio at the beginning of all creation.[2] The name is composed of kami, denoting deity, and musubi, meaning "effecting force of creation".[2]
