元明時期，官方對於媽祖天妃的崇祀，根據相關史料的記載，屬於儒家式的祭祀儀式。民間信仰或是道教傳統，一般未見媽祖專屬之儀式。筆者搜諸古代道書，稍有所獲，發現明代媽祖信仰的儀式，最早可以見於明初龍虎山道士北京大德觀住持周思得所編纂的《上清靈寶濟度大成金書》，而此書則是周氏承襲宋末元初道士林靈真（1239-1302）所編纂卷帙繁富達320卷的《靈寶領教濟度金書》之新編本。而《上清靈寶濟度大成金書》其中收編入三種儀式類型：〈天妃行道儀〉、〈天妃醮科〉、〈福惠明著天妃聖燈科〉，可是查考《靈寶領教濟度金書》，卻未見任何關於天妃之儀。這三種科儀，我們考證基本上都是元代晚期編成的，明初便被周思得所選編。所以專屬於天妃的儀式，當濫觴於元代，前此無有。筆者希望作一初探，討論其中歷史與文獻的問題，並解釋這三種儀式之意義與功能，原則上屬於建醮的儀式類型以及點燈的祈福儀式。筆者找到三種珍貴少見的媽祖信仰之專屬儀式，目的在於發掘新資料，或者古為今用，對於臺灣的民間信仰與儀式，也許可以提供一點新的思考與發展方向。這是本文撰述之動機與旨趣所在。

In this article, we will discuss three professional rituals of the deity Mazu (媽祖). We find these three ritual texts in taoist ritual book of Ming dynasty. By comparing these three ritual texts with many books and datas, we can confirm that these three rituals were made by Taoist priest in Yuan dynasty. Even though they were ancient rituals, but because of no professional rituals of the deity Mazu are practiced in big ceremony of folk belief, so we think that these three rituals are useful for Taoist priest to operate in Mazu temples today.
