The moon has always called to the shapeshifters of Asia... Across the vast expanse of East Asia and Siberia, three legendary traditions have persevered for millennia, each centered on mystical beings that hunt beneath the lunar glow. Asian Moon Hunters takes readers on an extraordinary journey through the interconnected world of Japanese kitsune, Chinese huli jing, and Siberian wolf-shamans. What You'll Discover: Delve into the ancient origins of the nine-tailed fox spirits that serve as messengers to the Shinto deity Inari, exploring their evolution from trickster spirits to wise guardians. Journey through Chinese imperial courts where huli jing seduced scholars and emperors while pursuing Daoist immortality. Venture into the shamanic traditions of Siberia, where wolf-spirits guide shamans through otherworldly realms. Author David G. Stone, drawing from decades of research and rare primary sources, reveals the surprising connections between these geographically distant but spiritually linked traditions. From ancient texts to modern manga, from sacred rituals to contemporary urban legends, this comprehensive exploration shows how lunar shapeshifter mythology continues to evolve while maintaining its essential power. Perfect for readers fascinated by: • Asian mythology and folklore • Comparative religious studies • Shamanic traditions and practices • Cultural anthropology • The intersection of ancient wisdom and modern spirituality Asian Moon Hunters offers both scholarly insight and accessible storytelling, making it essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the enduring appeal of these legendary lunar spirits. Step into a world where the line between human and spirit blurs with each phase of the moon.
