In English, Omoikane is often translated as "serving one's thoughts." This Shinto god is associated with wisdom and intelligence, and is called upon in the deliberations of the heavenly deities to give good counsel. In the myth of the missing sun goddess, he was tasked with devising a plan to get Amaterasu out of the cave she was hiding in and succeeded with the help of Uzume.
