What kind of fairy is the lady in red?

The Queen Mother is a common name among the people. She was originally called the Queen Mother of the West, also known as the Queen Mother, Golden Mother or Golden Mother Yuan Jun. The name "Queen Mother of the West" first appeared in Shan Hai Jing. Of course, "west" refers to the direction. Because she lives in West Kunlun, she chose the word "West". "Empress Dowager" refers to the name of the immortal. It is recorded in Shan Hai Jing: "The Queen Mother of the West has a leopard tail with tiger teeth, which is the god of the West White Tiger, not the shape of the Queen Mother of the West." "The Queen Mother of the West is formed by the chaotic spirit of Chinese and Western cultures. Her surname is Hou Shi, which matches the West". This is the earliest origin of the Queen Mother of the West.

Of course, there is a detailed description of the queen mother's specific dress in "The Turn of the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty", which describes that she once went to the harem and said that she was wearing a gold silk coat, with a vivid image and dignity. Wearing a sword around her waist, a Taihua bun on her head, a morning baby hat on her head and a pair of shoes with phoenix patterns on her feet, she looks 30 years old at first glance, beautifully dressed and beautiful.

Shan Hai Jing also describes the residence of the Queen Mother of the West, which says that the Queen Mother of the West is the ancestor of the goddess and lives between the Kunlun Mountains. There are thousands of miles of Fiona Fang and twelve jade buildings, connected by Yaochi on the left and surrounded by Cuishan on the right. It is also described in the natural history that the flat peach garden of the Queen Mother planted peach trees next to her Yaochi. It took 3,000 years to blossom, and it took another 1,000 years to bear fruit. All the immortal women within the Three Realms were under the jurisdiction of the Western Queen Mother.

It can be seen that as a member of the myth system, the origin of the Queen Mother is naturally inseparable from the major myth books, and of course the title of the Queen Mother is also inseparable from people's word of mouth.

Tianhou's daughter

The Queen Mother is also called "Queen Mother of the West" and "Golden Mother of Yaochi" in mythology. She is the wife of the jade emperor, and she is in charge of heaven with the jade emperor * * *, so she has a high status. So how many daughters does the Queen Mother have? What are the names of the daughters of the Queen Mother?

First of all, in the myth of the seven fairies, the queen mother and the jade emperor Yi * * * have seven daughters. From Journey to the West, we can know the names of the seven fairies: Red Fairy, Tsing Yi Fairy, Plain Clothes Fairy, Soap Fairy, Purple Fairy, Yellow Fairy and Green Fairy. Their names correspond to each other: Zhang Tianshou in red, Zhang Tianyang in Tsing Yi, Zhang in plain clothes, Zhang Tianchang in Soap Clothes, Zhang Tianxian in Purple Clothes, Zhang Tianqing in Yellow Clothes and Green Clothes.

Of course, different versions of the myth have different origins, and the daughters of the heavenly queen are also different. There is another saying about the daughters of the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor, that is, they have ten daughters, namely, three bodhisattvas, namely, the sacred Guanyin Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Manjusri Bodhisattva, plus seven Notre Dames, namely, Tamaki, Prince Bi Xia, Notre Dame, Notre Dame Green, Queen Mother West, Notre Dame Fairy and Notre Dame Xuan Nv of Nine Days.

In addition, the daughter of the heavenly queen is also mentioned in the work "The Fairy Mirror of Past Dynasties". But there are only five names. They are the fourth daughter, Mrs. Zi Yuan, whose name is Hua Lin; The thirteenth daughter is Mrs. You Jin, whose name is Melanie; The twentieth daughter, Mrs. Wang Ziwei, her name is Qing E; The twenty-second daughter, Mrs. Yunhua, was named Yao Ji; And the youngest daughter, Mrs. Wang Taizhen, whose name is Yu Yi. I don't know any other names.

Of course, the Queen Mother is a mythical figure, and the daughter of the Queen Mother is no exception. Different versions have different sources. Of course, everyone's name will be different, so we don't have to worry about which statement is the most accurate.

The Queen Mother held a flat peach party.

You remember the story of the Monkey King stealing the Seven Fairies in the Flat Peach Play. At that time, the Monkey King was sent by the Jade Emperor to take charge of the flat peach garden, so the Monkey King stole the flat peach. The owner of the Flat Peach Garden is none other than the Queen Mother. According to legend, the Queen Mother holds a flat peach banquet every year and invites immortals from all walks of life to eat flat peaches. So what caused the Queen Mother to hold a flat peach party? Next, let's take a look at the reasons and grand occasion of the flat peach party held by the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother is the goddess who ruled Kunlun Mountain in ancient China mythology. She is also known as the golden mother or queen mother in the west. Her image is recorded in Shan Hai Jing and Biography of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. The Queen Mother is also an indispensable figure in China mythology, and her image has become a very important part of our national culture. So what prompted the high-ranking Queen Mother to hold a flat peach banquet and invite fairies to eat flat peaches?

First of all, let's look at the date of the flat peach party, which is the third day of the third lunar month every year. This day is also the birthday of the Queen Mother. In today's words, the flat peach party of the Queen Mother is actually the birthday party on her birthday. On this day, the Queen Mother prepared a very grand flat peach banquet for all the immortals and bodhisattvas. Of course, the immortals also regard attending the Flat Peach Club as a status symbol, which we can see from the Monkey King. At that time, none of the immortals held a flat peach party and gave a banquet, so there was a big fight at the flat peach party. Later, the third day of the third lunar month also became a very important Taoist festival.

According to legend, the flat peaches of the Queen Mother are not much better than ordinary peaches. Immortals naturally eat Xiantao, which can prolong life and live forever. On the day of the flat peach party, the sky was very lively and crowded; Immortals from all walks of life gathered together, and people were buzzing. Of course, immortals from all walks of life also rushed to celebrate the queen mother's birthday.
