In the Womb Cave on Mount Fuji pilgrims are shown sucking on stalactites in the shape of teats. Melinda Takeuchi has explained that entering a cave is associated in Fuji-cult thought and in Daoist and Shugendo writings with motions of entering the womb and rebirth. Fuji-cult pilgrims nurse at the breast of the Great Mother; the stalactites are thought to secrete a nourishing essence.
