What do you call a female Taoist priest?

1. When you meet a female Taoist in a Taoist temple, you just need to call her a Taoist, a nun and a female crown. For ordinary Taoists, it is enough to call them Taoists. In Taoism, it is distinguished by Gankun. Taoism has distinguished Yin and Yang by Gankun since ancient times. Dry represents the sky, and it is for the yang. Kun stands for earth, which means yin. In other words, the male Taoist is the avenue and the female Taoist is the Kundao, which is commensurate with the Taoist friends and brothers.

2. In the Tang Dynasty, male Taoist priests were called Huang Guan, while female Taoist priests were called female crowns. Yang Yuhuan in the Xuanzong period of the Tang Dynasty was once the female crown. Taoist priest is never called Taoist priest, but a folk title, which can be traced back to the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty. Tao, a literary historian, created the idiom "three aunts and six women" in the Record of Dropping Farms, in which "three aunts" refers to Taoist priests and divinatory figures. Since then, Taoist priests have been known.
