Uncanny Japan

Susanoo: Japan's Storm God - Chaos to Redemption (Ep. 173)


Listen Later

Ever wonder what happens when a Japanese god has serious anger management issues? This is the second episode in my Myth Tales series, and I want to share what I discovered about Susanoo, the storm deity whose story completely surprised me.

This isn't your typical heroic god story. Without giving too much away, let's just say his relationship with his sister (who happens to be the sun goddess) gets... complicated. And the consequences affect literally everyone.

This tempestuous deity's journey takes him from cosmic family drama to facing something truly terrifying - but I'll let you discover those details yourself.

Come with me as I explore this Japanese mythology that feels surprisingly relatable in ways I didn't expect.
