Junbo-Ritsugō
Junbo-Ritsugō (Japanese: 准母立后 or 准母 (Junbo)), is a Japanese title referring to an honorary empress, or the honorary mother of the Japanese emperor.[failed verification]
The title was used when the emperor needed an honorary empress to perform certain tasks. The title was only used ceremonially, typically by a female relative who was a previous empress. It could also be used for an honorary empress dowager, not just an honorary empress consort.
The title first came to use in 1091. The former Saiō, Princess Yasuko, was made the honorary empress for her brother, Emperor Horikawa. It was odd for the empress to be her husband's sister, but she was actually Horikawa's nurse, and adoptive mother, and she would retire in 1093.
