Orthodox Symbolism
Orthodox Symbolism
Orthodox Symbolism is a digital-first platform dedicated to exploring the rich visual and spiritual language of Eastern Orthodox Christianity. Through a mobile-first experience, it offers users access to daily devotions, prophecy insights, a comprehensive symbol dictionary, and a dream interpretation library—making theological depth and devotional practices easily accessible to modern audiences.
About this project
🚀 Project Overview
The project sought to unify scattered Orthodox resources—symbols, icons, inscriptions, prophecies, and devotions—into one immersive and accessible digital platform. By combining a devotional companion with an educational tool, the platform empowers both laypeople and students of iconography with structured, searchable, and theologically faithful content.
✨ Key Features
- Daily Prophecies & Devotions
- Comprehensive Symbol Dictionary
- Dream Interpretation Library
- Curated Content Backend
🎯 Challenge & Innovation
The main challenge was that Orthodox devotional and symbolic resources were fragmented and hard to navigate. By consolidating them into a single mobile application, Orthodox Symbolism introduced a unified, searchable system that keeps spiritual practices both accessible and engaging. The innovation lies in combining dynamic content delivery, editorial infrastructure, and theological integrity to serve diverse audiences in one place.
