WELCOME to Hawaii Kotohira Jinsha-Hawaii Dazaifu Tenmangu, a Shinto shrine established in 1920 in Honolulu to perpetuate Shinto traditions in Hawaii.
Tasked in the preservation and perpetuation of Hawaii’s unique cultural heritage, we engage in cultural celebrations that acknowledge the divine in all of creation, and venerate our ancestral spirits.
Join us in celebrating the traditions and legacy of a rich and inspiring past.
Our two main shrines are Kotohiragu of Kagawa-ken, also known as Konpira-san and Tenjin-san or Dazaifu Tenmangu of Fukuoka-ken .
There are also five other shrines represented in Hawaii at the same site: Suitengu of Fukuoka-ken, Shirasaki Hachimangu of Yamaguchi-ken, Otaki Jinja of Otake City, Watatsumi Jinja of Tokushima and Inari Jinja of Kyoto.

| Year of the Tiger
We will enter the year of the Metal Tiger on January 1, 2010.
This coming Tiger year could be an explosive and expansive time. 2010 will be a year favoring action, and courageous movement.
CHANGE will be the keyword this year. All signs will feel the restlessness of the Tiger's influence motivating changes in many key areas of life. Many may pick up and change residence or jobs or both (possibly more than once).
Anticipate a dynamic year of sudden opportunities and bold actions. Tiger brings drama and excitement, tempers flare, and the wildest dreams can come true. Volume is turned up to a roar and life experiences are on a grand scale. There is little restraint as brave Tiger pounces on new endeavors.
Expect massive social change, political rebellion, and military coups all over the world.
Tiger years are a time of commotion, uproar and bold new moves. Takeovers, marches and empowered forces will finally make their move.
As for health, 2010 will bring more than the usual bouts of respiratory and digestive problems, lung infections and the flu.
Happy New Year and blessings to all.
