Carved Chinese Jade
Posted in asian antiques on 04/05/2011 04:44 pm by adminHELP!! i bought this freakish looking idol statue from a flea market...what God is it? where is it from?
ok, so i was at the local weekend flea market, n i saw this peddler with many unusual antiques n handicrafts, such as old chinese porcelain plates n vases, asian tribal wood carvings, chinese jade, mayan looking brass ware n jewelry etc.
so i saw this idol statue carved out of stone, it looks old, n has some aged spots. i bought it for $20.
now as it is sitting in my bedroom desk, i m kind of freaked out, by its devilish looks.
anyway, does anybody know what god is this? which ancient culture or tribe is it from? how do i worship or respect it??
i m scared......help!!!

hi
i am quite certain this is cernunnos, the celtic god of the sacred masculine, ie masculine energy. it has the signature parting on top of its head [a sign of the phallus] and the scarlet eyes representing male passion. it does not have any satanic or malignant undertones.
it is quite popular in wiccan circles. it would make a good present for any neopagan friends you might have.
