Ma Gu (sometimes spelled Ma Ku) is a Chinese deity of longevity.
"Hemp Maid" or "Hemp Priestess" is how Ma Gu is translated.
In certain current Taoist groups, she is venerated via the
ceremonial smoking and spiritual usage of cannabis.
She is the goddess of springtime and the eternal guardian of
women, associated with rebirth and fertility.
Ma Gu is a beautiful lady with long fingernails who gives
life to the world and possesses alchemical knowledge.
