Xi Wangmu
(Redirected from Xi Wang-mu)
Xi Wangmu (西王母), in Chinese mythology, literally "Queen Mother of the West," is the ruler of the western paradise and goddess of immortality.
Originally she was a ferocious goddess with the teeth of a tiger, who sent plagues down upon the world. After she was adopted into the Taoist pantheon, she was transformed into a benign deity.
