「橫風北來阻歸櫂，海水起立魚龍嘯。」 --節選〈再泊澎湖〉，張湄
媽祖做為澎湖的海神信仰之一，給予居民及行船人的精神支柱，也見證了許多歷史時刻：韋麻郎的離開、風櫃尾的荷蘭城、鄭成功的整軍經武，以及見證施琅攻臺的時刻。
荷蘭於1670年出版的《第二、三次荷蘭東印度公司使節出使大清帝國記》，書中提到祭祀媽祖的故事。作者Olfert Dapper雖未來過亞洲，憑靠著想像力呈現臺灣的風土民情。而漢人有時也是憑靠著想像力，想像著女神與祂的奇異妖怪守護著生命中的驚濤駭浪。
“The north wind blocks the boat that’s homeward bound, The sea rises, and the fish and dragons roar." --Excerpt from “Berthing at Penghu Again” by Zhang, Mei
Mazu, as one of the sea gods worshiped in Penghu, provides mental support to the residents and sailors, and has witnessed many historical moments: the retreat of Wybrand van Warwick, the Dutch fortress on the edge of Fonggui, Kuoxinga's military deployment, and the year when admiral Shi Lang conquered Taiwan.
In 1670, a book "Gedenkwaerdig bedryf der Nederlandsche Oost-Indische Maetschappye, op de kuste en in het keizerrijk van Taising of Sina " published in Dutch, which included a piece of print describing Mazu's worship. The author, Olfert Dapper, had never visited Asia, but he used his imagination to depict Taiwan's local customs and culture. Likewise, the Chinese people sometimes relied on imagination to describe how their goddess and her mythical creatures protecting believers in the perils of life.
