["This event was important because, in each sexagenary cycle, the first and the fifty-eighth years were considered to be auspicious according to Chinese astrological principles".] ]

* "Kyūan 6", in the 3rd month (1150): Konoe married again, this time to a daughter raised by "Sesshō" Fujiwara-no Tadamichi. She was the daughter of "Dainagon" Fujiwara-no Koremichi. This bride became "chūgyo" (second empress). Konoe was so very much enamoured of this second wife that he neglected his first wife, which caused discord in the "kugyō," especially between Tadamichi and Yorinaga. [see above] ]
* "Kyūan 6", in the 12th month (1150): "Sesshō" Minamoto-no Tadamichi, resigns his position and is named "Daijō Daijin". In this same month, Minamoto-no Yoshikane became head of the Ashikaga clan in Shimotsuke province. [see above] ]
