Femme-araignée du folklore japonais 🕷️👘
Ces créatures ne sont pas seulement faites pour effrayer : elles symbolisent aussi l’équilibre entre les humains et la nature.
Malicieuses, rusées, parfois sages et protectrices, elles changent de rôle d’un récit à l’autre, toujours enveloppées de mystère et de pouvoir.
Difficile de les oublier une fois qu’on les a croisées… même en image.

In #JapaneseFolklore there is a belief that when animals and birds reach advanced age they can transform into #yokai. Aosagibi (blue heron fire) is a phenomenon that occurs when an elderly night heron develops supernatural qualities. Over time the heron's feathers begin to... #LegendaryWednesday 1/6

It is said they appear during disasters, especially if many suffer or die or if the spirits of the dead haven't been pacified. The spirits become vengeful ghosts in the form of itsumade. Their cries ask how long the suffering will go unnoticed. 🎨Toriyama Sekien #yokai 2/2

For #LegendaryWednesday's bird theme, dodomeki are not actually a bird but rather a #yokai appearing as a woman whose arms are covered in bird's eyes.

Yatagarasu is a three-legged crow and messenger of the kami (gods). Originally in Japan there was no mention of Yatagarasu having three legs, but over time this myth was blended with the Chinese myth of the three-legged sun crow. #LegendaryWednesday #yokai #JapaneseFolklore
