Lục cung thánh mẫu ("陆宮" "聖母"), also known as mẫu Địa Phủ, is heavenly mother of the Địa phủ ("Earth Palace"), fourth of the heavenly Four Palaces in Vietnamese folk religion. In len dong ritual, as with the other three mother spirits, the colour of the clothes of a medium of mẫu Địa Phủ, the Earth Palace Mother, reflects the token colour of each of the four spirits of which the mediums are possessed.[1][2][3] Địa Mẫu chân kinh is a holy book of Địa Mẫu.
