Daji and Chinese Fox Worship with Red Hu
Manage episode 412404643 series 3561464
Sorceress, diviner, and Chinese folk magic practitioner Red Hu leads the gang through the story of Daji, the intelligent, sadistic, and supernaturally seductive fox spirit who allegedly brought about the fall of the Shang dynasty. We cover her legend from Xu Zhonglin's "The Investiture of the Gods," discuss the survival of Chinese fox cults and folk Taoist traditions in Singapore, and share plenty of laughs about all the salacious details of Daji's #girlbossing along the way.
