The head shrine of Tenmangu shrines nationwide In 903, Sugawara no Michizane was falsely accused and exiled to Dazaifu, where he died in despair. Then, in the capital of Kyoto, disasters such as lightning strikes occurred, and rumors spread that this was due to Michizane's curse, and Michizane's vengeful spirit was feared as a god of thunder. Therefore, 20 years after his death, the Imperial Court revoked Michizane's exile, granted him an official rank, and presented him with the rank of Shonii (Senior Second Rank).
