Honoikazuchi no Okami is a name associated with fire and thunder in Japanese mythological tradition, reflecting the volatile and destructive power of lightning and flame. The name appears among the deities born from Izanami during the Kojiki's account of the primal creation narrative, linked to the group of thunder deities that emerged in connection with her death. As with many kami tied to natural forces, veneration of this deity centers on the awe and danger associated with fire and storm phenomena, though specific ritual practices and shrine traditions vary by region.
