April 17th of the lunar calendar: Golden Flower Empress's birthday?

Among the Han people in Guangdong, Guangxi, Gansu, Hubei, Zhejiang and other places in China, there is a widely worshipped fertility goddess-Golden Flower Empress, also known as Lady Golden Flower, Virgin Golden Flower, Pine Seed Empress, etc., which is said to be very effective. Today's encyclopedia of Chinese Lunar Festival is about the Christmas of the Golden Flower Queen. Let's find out.

April 17th of the lunar calendar is the Christmas day of Golden Flower Empress every year. Legend has it that in the seventh year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (A.D. 1374), Guangzhou patrolman's wife gave birth and changed many midwives, but none of them were able to give birth. The adults on patrol are at a loss and very tired. She dreamed that an old man pointed out, "Please invite Miss Jinhua, so that mother and son will be safe."

So the tour leader immediately sent someone to search around Guangzhou, and * * * found more than a dozen folk women named Jinhua and called them to the kitchens one by one. The last 14-year-old girl just entered the kitchen, and the patrol wife gave birth to a baby boy safely. The inspector was overjoyed and thought Miss Jinhua was a fairy. He asked Queen Jinhua to save his wife from danger and kowtow to her.

It soon spread all over Guangzhou, causing many pregnant women to come to Jinhua for protection in labor, but unexpectedly, this unfortunate thing happened. After everyone regarded Jinhua as a "living bodhisattva", no one dared to marry her. As she grew older, Miss Jinhua was unhappy all day, and finally she threw herself into the lake.

After Miss Jinhua's death, the body surfaced in the lake, but it did not rot for many days, and it also gave off a special fragrance. Shortly after burial, a small statue of Daphne appeared in the lake, which looked like a golden flower. The local residents in Guangzhou miss Miss Jinhua, welcomed the woodcarving statue back, built a shrine to worship it, and called it "Mrs. Jinhua Baozihui", and called Huxian Lake and its temple Jinhua Temple, and designated Jinhua's birthday on April 17 of the lunar calendar as the birthday of the Golden Flower Queen.

In addition, there are some folklore about the origin of the Golden Flower Empress. For example, Miss Jinhua is a servant girl of a rich family, and her host family gave birth to a son who loves to cry. But as long as Miss Jinhua hugs her, the child will stop crying at once, which is especially good. So the news spread, and many children from families came to hug Miss Jinhua. Over time, Miss Jinhua became a fairy who took care of women and children.
