Kamidana - Serenity Portal 10.7

The new style of Kamidana (household Shinto altar) is a fitting representation of the modern era. Cultivating gratitude and daily prayers are encouraged to nurture meaningful relationships.

In Japan, historically, Shinto altars were a staple in households, fostering peace and happiness through blessings. They symbolized protectors of essential spaces in daily life, emphasizing the importance of human connections. In today's digital age dominated by smartphones and online interactions, the idea of modernizing this tradition to include mobile devices carries an intriguing premise.

The Kamidana app is designed around the concept of self-coaching to manifest desires, drawing inspiration from the reverence offered at divine altars.
