Kijimuna (or Kijimunā) is a well-known, mischievous, and often benevolent yōkai (spirit/creature) from Okinawan folklore. They are small, childlike tree-sprites that live in the banyan trees (Gajumaru or Kajimaru) of the southern Japanese islands.Key Aspects of Kijimuna:
- Appearance: They are generally described as child-sized, with large heads and hair covered in vibrant red. They are often depicted wearing skirts made of leaves or grass.
- Habitat: They live in old banyan trees (gajumaru), which are often found near the ocean or in swampy areas.
- Behavior and Traits:
- Excellent Fishermen: They are renowned for their fishing skills and often leave the remains of their meals—typically the left eye of a fish—on the shore.
- Mischievous & Playful: They are known to play pranks on humans, such as sitting on a person's chest while they sleep, which can cause paralysis (a phenomenon known as kanashibari).
- Symbiotic Relationship: While they can be fickle, they are generally considered good spirits that bring luck and prosperity to fishermen who treat them well.
- Protectors of Nature: They are deeply attached to their trees, and harming their habitat can cause them to become vengeful.
- Alternative Names: They are also referred to as Bunagaya (meaning "Large-Headed") or Sēma.
The Kijimuna remains a popular figure in Okinawan culture, symbolizing a deep respect for the spiritual power of nature.
