御祭神は稚日女尊(わかひるめのみこと)、天照大御神の妹だったり、和魂(にぎみたま)だったり、色々と言われる女神様です。
ただ、ホツマツタヱには伊邪那岐、伊弉冉の第1子である、ワカ姫こと、ヒルコ(お昼に生まれたので)だとされています。
The enshrined deity is Wakahirume-no-Mikoto, a goddess identified in various ways—sometimes as the younger sister of Amaterasu-Omikami, and at other times as a manifestation of her *nigimitama* (benevolent spirit).
However, according to the *Hotsuma Tsutae*, she is identified as Hiruko—also known as Wakahime—the firstborn child of Izanagi and Izanami (so named because she was born at midday).
