His birthday is the sixth day of the second month of the lunar calendar. Dong Wanggong was born on the blue sea before the beginning of the world. He created all things and was in charge of the Yuan Yang energy in the east. It is said that he moved from earthly immortals to divine immortals, from divine immortals to celestial immortals, and from celestial immortals to true saints. All these three migrations were presided over by Donghua Emperor. Therefore, anyone who wants to ascend to heaven must first worship Wood Gong (also known as Dong Wang Gong) and then worship Gold Mu. Only then can one ascend to the Ninth Heaven, enter the Sanqing Temple, worship the Jade Emperor Laozi, and meet Yuanshi Tianzun.The emergence of the name Donghua Emperor, also known as Dong Wanggong, may be closely related to Chinese traditional culture. According to the Chinese concept of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, if there is a Yin god, there must be a Yang god. The goddess is called the Queen Mother of the West. The west belongs to gold, so she is also called the Mother of Gold. In contrast, the male god should be called the King Father of the East. The east belongs to wood, so he is also called the King Father of Wood. Emperor Donghua was absorbed into Taoism at the end of the Han Dynasty, but was not listed in the list of gods worshipped by Taoists during the Tang and Northern Song dynasties. He was included in the list only during the Southern Song Dynasty. In the list of deities in "Grand Ceremony of Praying for Offspring" by Zhongli of the Southern Song Dynasty, Emperor Donghua is ranked nineteenth, and his given name is "Donghua Mugong Daojun". In the list of 360 true spirits in "Santan Zejiao Pin Shang" by Jin Yunzhong of the Southern Song Dynasty, he is ranked tenth, and his given name is "Donghua Shangxiang Mugong Qingtong Emperor". In the Yellow Talisman Luotian 1200th Position by Lü Yuansu of the Southern Song Dynasty (included in Volume 3 of Daoist Customs), Emperor Donghua is the first deity invited in the ninth petition, named "Water Palace Fusang Emperor", and ranks first among the gods of Water Palace. During the Southern Song, Jin and Yuan dynasties, the status of Emperor Donghua, also known as King Dong, in Taoism was higher than that of Queen Mother Xi. However, by the Ming and Qing dynasties, as women's rights gradually developed, Queen Mother Xi's status began to be considered by folk Taoism to be equal to that of King Dong.
