Taoist Spirit Maps (靈圖, Língtú)

Spirit maps are oft referenced in canonized Taoist grimoires. Companion blog post: https://benebellwen.com/2023/02/11/ta...

Excerpt from I CHING, THE ORACLE, "Xi Wang Mu, Goddess of the Wu" https://benebellwen.files.wordpress.c...

You’ll find a lot of these references and instructionals in the Spirit Maps of the Mysterious Cavern Scrolls 洞玄部靈圖類 from the Taoist Canons 道藏經, among other grimoires and scriptures throughout history.

Here’s a good online resource for viewing scrolls from the Canons (there’s a whole section on the Mysterious Cavern Scrolls): http://www.taolibrary.com/category95....
