武當山, China: traditional Taoist wedding under the full moon

Inner Travels by Isabella Delacroix

Episode notes

Red lantern path, tea ceremony, ancestral blessings and martial arts performances.. Let me bring you to an outdoor wedding in the middle of the forest, in the mystical Wudang valley. The ceremony was filled with symbolism and ancient rituals, one of those authentic and intimate immersions in rural China that I’m very happy to share with y’all..

The more I travel around the world the more similarities I see that we all share across cultures.. The need for love, the importance of community, and the sacredness of reunion. But also how annoying our drunk uncles can be, and how universal it is for a wife to scream at her husband for blocking the car in the ravine. Because yes, even for Tai Chi masters, no family gathering is ever truly peaceful.. lmao
