What is the relationship between the Wei Zi God and the Jade Emperor in Taoism? Are they the same person?

Emperor Wei Zi belongs to one of the four imperial schools of Taoism, and is the first of them. The Jade Emperor ranks fourth in Taoism, followed by the "four imperial schools" of Taoism. The jade emperor not only commands the gods of the three realms and ten parties, but also manages the rise and fall of all things in the universe, good or bad. It can be said that Wei Zi is a subordinate of the Jade Emperor.

Wei Zidi introduced: Wei Zidi occupies an important position in the folk beliefs of the Han nationality, and belongs to one of the four emperors of Taoism. He is the first of the four emperors, ranking below the supreme god of Haotian Golden finch, the supreme natural wonder of Milla and the real jade emperor. (There are also six royal sayings), and it is called "Zhongtian Weizi North Pole Emperor". Wei Zi is also known as the Great Wall of Wei Zi, Zigong and Ziwei Star. One wall located in the middle of the three walls is the residence of the emperor in the constellation, and the palace is also called the Forbidden City. This is the origin. Taoism believes that Polaris is the eternal star, located in the center of the sky, with the highest status and the most noble, and is the "Lord of the stars", so it is highly respected. The function of Emperor Wei Zi is: to be in charge of the natural latitude and longitude, to command the natural phenomena such as the sun, the moon, the stars, the gods of mountains and rivers, and the four seasons, and to call for rain and serve the gods of thunder and lightning. For example, the volume "Notes on Nine Days' Ying Yuanlei Popularizing the Heavenly Zun's Imperial Books and Preserving Classics" says: "The Arctic Han Emperor mastered five thunders. "Emperor Wei Zi's birthday is April 18th. Every Spring Festival, the Han people will post New Year pictures, praying for God to bless people's longevity, and placing their good wishes for exorcism, disaster avoidance and blessing on the Han working people.

Introduction to the Jade Emperor: The full name of the Jade Emperor is Haotian Jinque, which is the supreme nature. There are gods from Milla to the real Jade Emperor, also known as "Jade Emperor Tianzun", "Haotian Tong Ming Palace Jade Emperor" and "Jade Emperor Xuanthe king of world". The full name of the Jade Emperor Giant Buddha is "Li Yuhan, the blessing of Tai Shang Huang Tian Kai, the Golden Queyun Palace, the Nine-dome calendar, Wan Yu Road Wu Tong Mingtang and Haotian Jinque. Among the folk beliefs of the Han nationality, the Jade Emperor is the most influential among the gods, so the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the gods has surpassed the Sanqing Buddha and is more grand than other gods. In addition, the Jade Emperor is a Taoist god, not the Indra Heaven in Buddhism and Indian culture. Taoism believes that people should cultivate their self-cultivation, keep the Tao, be quiet and have few desires, otherwise they will be confused by desires and confuse right and wrong. If you can't get back to the roots, you will be the same as the Tao, and God will enter the five Tao. Taoist immortals teach people to cultivate pure yang and refine impure quality, leaving only a cloud of yang, which floats lightly to the sky, naturally ascends to immortality, jumps out of the three realms, is not in the five elements, is free from the shackles of yin and yang, and is not suffering from the rotation of karma.
