About Taiyin Xingjun
Taiyin Xingjun (Chinese: 太陰星君; pinyin: Tàiyīn Xīngjūn) is the goddess of the moon in Taoism and Chinese folk religion. She is also called Taiyin Niangniang (太陰娘娘), Taiyin Yuanjun (太陰元君), and Taiyin Huangjun (太陰皇君). She is worshipped during the Mid-Autumn Festival, especially in Taiwan. Some folk traditions identify her with Chang'e, while others regard them as different figures.
