All about Me- Xi Wangmu - post 1



I am Xi-Wangmu - 王母娘娘. I may also be known as Queen Mother of the West, or Spirit Mother of the West,  HSI-WANG-MU, WANG-MU-NIANG-NIANG, or WEIWOBO. I am the goddess of immortality. I used to not be the most popular goddess, in fact I was the bottom goddess. I rose into the position, however.  That is a another story for another time. I married my amazing husband Mu- Gong, you may know him as Mr. Yang. As I become known for immortality people began mistaking me for the Jade Emperors wife, and often daughter. Which I think is crazy. Anyways, I reside in the Kunlun Mountains, in the far west, at the margin of heaven and earth.
I have all the characteristics a mortal would have but if you take a closer look you will see I have the teeth of a tiger and sometimes the tail of a leopard
My peach tree hidden by clouds in a garden, hold peaches that if eaten allow one to become immortal- or unable to die. So that is what I do.
