Omoto-sha

Tamomi no Sukune was the first head priest of Sumiyoshi Taisha. Empress-regent Jingū entrusted him with the building of the first Sumiyoshi shrine at the beginning of the third century after she had a vision of the three deities called the Sumiyoshi Sanjin.

Omoto-sha is a small shrine representing the devotion of Tamomi no Sukune and his wife Ichihime no Mikoto to the deities and each other. It is inside the building used to prepare food offerings for the Sumiyoshi Sanjin and Jingū. Omoto means “attendant” and refers to Tamomi no Sukune’s role as a servant of the deities.

Today, the shrine is frequented by people looking for love or wanting spiritual support in their romantic relationships. Visitors may purchase small wooden plaques (ema), write down their prayers and wishes for love, and hang the plaques up outside the shrine to be fulfilled by Tamomi no Sukune and Ichihime no Mikoto. There are two kinds of clay charm associated with Omoto-sha available at Sumiyoshi Taisha. One, called a hadaka bina, depicts a naked man and woman. It is thought to represent an ideal marital relationship in which the couple has no secrets. The other is called omoto ningyō and depicts a husband and wife in classical dress. It is thought to ensure happy relationships.

侍者社

田裳見宿禰是住吉大社的第一任宮司（神社最高負責人）。西元3世紀初，神功皇后在遇見被稱為「住吉三神」的三位海神後，委託他建造第一座殿閣。

侍者社是一座小神社，位於為四座本宮內神祇準備供品的建築內，為紀念田裳見宿禰和他的妻子市姬命對神明和對彼此的奉獻而建。「侍者」代表田裳見宿禰是神明之僕。

今天，祈願結緣和婚姻幸福的人們經常造訪侍者社。參拜者可以購買小木牌「繪馬」寫下他們對愛情的祈禱和願望，然後把木牌掛在神社外面，據說田裳見宿禰和市姬命會幫助他們實現願望。侍者社裡有兩種泥偶護身符，一種是一對赤裸的男女「裸雛」，代表夫妻之間坦誠相見、沒有任何秘密的理想婚姻關係。另一種「侍者人形」，是一對身著古典和服的夫婦，據說能令婚姻圓滿。這兩種泥偶護身符在大社都有銷售。
