초하루 new moon festival #무당 #무속인 #무속

With utmost sincerity and solemn heart, I offer and give these fruits, nuts, dates, sacred food, in honor to my 신령님 gods. They have continued to protect, guide, and bless me, my spirit family, my students, my family, my community. 잘 먹었습니다!

Began a new prayer candle for Gaza today. It's a special one that's dedicated to my Bulsa Halmeoni - she is my equivalent to GuanYin. She is very empathetic and listens deeply to prayers, wanting to help everyone. She purifies, protects, and heals. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

How full of gratitude I am for the ability to hold ceremony & pilgrimage in Korea as a Mudang.

Honored and blessed to be your local korean-american Mudang.

지역 교포 무당이 된 것을 영광과 축복으로 생각해요.

This sacred mural painting is the only one in the world. The style is by 유재명 선생님, and his style was only ever painted as single paintings - until this year. This was skillfully painted by intangible cultural heritage baksu-painter elder in Korea.

Some pictures of 굿 I've officiated:
