The Kamon "Kuyō" Family Crest

The "Kuyō" (九曜) kamon, also known as "Kuyou", consists of nine stars or celestial elements arranged in a circle, representing the nine astrological luminaries in Buddhist and Hindu astrology (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rāhu, Ketu). These elements are often associated with protection and used in esoteric rites for blessings or to ward off evil. Thus, the Kuyō kamon symbolizes a connection with cosmic forces and spiritual protection, being a symbol of luck and auspice.
