Lady Blue

ALSO KNOWN AS:

Madame Blue

ORIGIN:

China

Lady Blue is the companion and servant of snake goddess, Lady White. Her name may be Ching Ching or Siu Ching or at least that’s what she’s called when manifesting as a woman. Her title, Lady Blue, refers to her true form as a bluish-green snake. She’s often described as a small snake but that may be only in comparison with Lady White who is pretty substantial.

Green Snake, a 1993 Hong Kong film starring Maggie Cheung, retells the legend of Lady White from the perspective of Lady Blue.
