Xaewoon Blue devotees also worship the skycat, Cangon, who is believed to be a friend of Eternal Companion, but an unintentional menace to creatures on earth, like a kitten who drops a cup on the floor. Cangon is generally believed to be responsible for anything that appears random and capricious, such as the weather. Misfortunes, sickness and lack of luck mean that "Cangon is playful" (''marmanee Cangon''). The phrase is frequently added to the end of a sentence when it's intention is to complain about something benign, like bad weather. Appeasing Cangon, making him sleepy or distracted is the purpose of the many Xaewoon Blue rituals.

The acceptance of Cangon is a significant source of disagreement between the blue and green strons. Essentially, Cangon is viewed as an element that reduces one's agency. [[Gened|Gened's]] defiance of Cangon is in asserting a belief that one is a true owner of one's fate and the rejection of the idea that external factors might be instrumental in one's life to a significant extent.

Thus, contrary to popular belief, Xaewoon Green doesn't reject the existence of Cangon, but rather rejects its power over the lives of mortals.
