Heavenly Bodies: A Guide to Chinese Folk Deities

In this seminar, we'll be delving into the lore and cultural meaning behind some of the most popular folk deities in China. During the first half of the seminar, we'll be focusing primarily on the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West, who are undeniably the two most influential folk deities in the Chinese canon. In the second half, we'll take a look at two lesser-known deities who migrated from Buddhism and Taoism to become potent symbols that transcend the boundaries of their own respective religions.
