Source Authority and Review Boundary

The source authority for this translation is the published Japanese entry for Katakamuna Uta 47. Its canonical text, structural analysis, and evidence labels govern any discrepancy. This English rendering preserves the transliteration, literal gloss, and interpretive layer separately; it does not expand the Japanese authority’s claims.

Publication boundary: this page does not reproduce private research archives or the full text of rights-unverified modern materials. Historical, linguistic, and comparative statements retain the certainty limits of the Japanese authority.

Review disclosure: linguistically reviewed by TENMON AI under owner authorization; it is not represented as human-reviewed.

Transliteration

Literal Gloss

The upper sea-body opens; gathered earth-blood is consecrated and the upper conduit stands. Solar fire passes as Amaterasu and the pattern of reflection appears. Hard condensation is split; swift, forceful fire-water moves, while Tsukiyomi reads reflection from the center. A sacred store-shelf is set and three receptive water-functions arise.

Interpretive English

Uta 47 completes upper, middle, and lower circulation and differentiates solar, lunar, forceful, storage, and three water functions. Divine names are retained as source entities, not reduced to speculative etymology.

Evidence Boundary

This English edition preserves the Japanese source’s distinction between canonical text, structural observation, TENMON interpretation, comparison, and unverified hypothesis. Sound correspondences are not presented as proof of historical etymology.
