Fuji was feared for its large eruptions and lava spills, and it was considered a mysterious mountain and an object of worship. It is said that when Mt. Fuji's eruptions subsided, trainees began to step into the mountain to gain the divine and spiritual power of Mt. Fuji. Nowadays, the Fujinomiya peak side of Mt. Fuji is home to Sengen Taisha Okumiya who worships Asama no Ookami (浅間大神), also called Konohanasakuyabime, as the main deity.
