Tai Yang Xing Jun Birthday (太陽星君聖誕)


19th Day of Lunar 10 Month (
農曆十月十九日), it's a day that the Taoists regard as the Birthday of Tai Yang Xing Jun aka Lord of the Sun (太陽星君聖誕).

 

Another Birthday for Tai Yang Xing Jun is recorded as 19th Day of Lunar 3 Month (農曆三月十九日), which this is the actually day of the downfall of Ming Dynasty 明朝沒亡之日 (during the last battle of Ming Empire, Emperor Chong Zhen used the Chinese pronunciation of 19th Day of Lunar 3 Month as a secret code to hint the officers to get external armies to save him and the Empire, but due to internal conflicts, Emperor Chong Zhen was not being saved and Ming Empire was not able to sustain 以三月十九日為暗號 - 譯反清復明).

 

Tai Yang Xing Jun aka Lord of Sun, a Lord who is being appointed to look into the movements of the Sun and also to provide opportunities for Living Beings to survive.

 

Due to these reasons, Taoists or folks will tend to pay respect to Tai Yang Xing Jun to get blessings for prolonging of one's life and also, to get rid of un-necessary sins & debts in order to get a new opportunity to be another new "person".

 

For one self to get close connection with Tai Yang Xing Jun, the one self can recite Scriptures (only the correct & accurate one, not the one being mixed with other un-necessary sentences) dedicated to him or Bao Gao (寶誥) aka Praise Mantra to get his attention.
