1. The Queen Mother of the West before the Western Han Dynasty? Isolated point
Yes, in the literature records before the Western Han Dynasty, the Queen Mother of the West has always been single, which means that the combination of the Queen Mother of the West and other images has never been found before the Western Han Dynasty? Socializing? Image.
Shall we start with Shan Hai Jing? Haibei Jing and Shan Hai Jing? Xishan Jing, Shanhaijing? In the description of the queen mother in Wild West Classic, it seems that the reason can be summarized: because the queen mother is so ugly that she can't find a boyfriend. Of course, this is just a joke?
Of course, in addition to the slightly illusory Classic of Mountains and Seas, the earliest portrait of the Queen Mother of the West can be found in the painted murals in the tomb of Buqianqiu in Luoyang (Zhao Xuan period in the Western Han Dynasty) and the picture of the gods worshiping the Queen Mother of the West on the stone pier in Qishan, Pei County, Jiangsu Province. The same is true of the early image of the Queen Mother in these tombs, because as the highest god, she must have no exclusive image of a couple!
Second, the first cp of the Queen Mother of the West? Luz
Yes, you heard me right. What is this sub-road Will Luz be unhappy when he sees Nanzi? So is Luz? Lu Li saved lives and died without winning the throne? Lutz, because of his loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and courage, the Han people hold this Confucian gentleman in high esteem and have risen to the position of being on a par with the Queen Mother of the West!
On the stone pier of Wohu Mountain in Zoucheng City, Shandong Province in the Western Han Dynasty (from Xuan Di to Yuan Di), the historical Queen Mother of the West and Luz first had a corresponding spatial relationship!
Why does it correspond? Because other images on the chessboard emphasize this opposition between yin and yang: on the east side of the south chessboard, there is a white tiger engraved, representing the west and yin; There is a dragon carved on the east side of Beisaka, representing the East and masculinity. Although the position of the sarcophagus in the tomb is opposite to its own orientation, it does not affect the corresponding relationship between the Queen Mother of the West and Lutz:
The two men are on the north and south sides of the board, passing through the central space (the left and right sides of the deceased), and the distance corresponds to: Yin, West (female)? Yang, Dongfang (male)!
During this period, the image of the Queen Mother of the West has changed, and the unique characteristics of the Queen Mother of the West remain on her head? Dai Sheng Crown? There is also a curved headdress with two forks at the back of the head, which is easy to identify!
So, how to identify this historical figure as Lutz? What is the historian's description of Confucius' Gao Zuzi Road? Cock crowns and dolphins? , that is to say, wearing? Cock crown? This is a typical feature of Luz!
The typical characteristics of Luz are more clear in the portrait of another historical story, so Luz can definitely be the first cp of the Queen Mother of the West!
Third, the second cp of the Queen Mother of the West? Fengbo (Jixing)
Around 1 century, the second boyfriend of the Queen Mother of the West appeared! Appears in the portraits of the Western Mountain Wall and the Eastern Mountain Wall of Xiaotang Stone Temple, and there are more than one case. In the right column of a sarcophagus portrait in Qingshan Village, Xia Town, Weishan County, Shandong Province, there is also a male image corresponding to the Queen Mother of the West:
The Queen Mother of the West sits on the top of Kunlun Mountain, surrounded by three-legged birds, nine-tailed foxes, toads and jade rabbits, and now the tall male figure facing her is Fengbo (Ji Xing)!
Fengbo, who is related to the East and the Dragon, explained that it is regarded as a symbol of men and is used to indicate the orientation of the East, so it is contrary to the Queen Mother of the West, indicating the orientation of women and the West. This is the rationality of its original creation.
Obviously, however, this image of cp is not perfect. Not only is Fengbo's godhead too low to be worthy of the Queen Mother of the West, but there is nothing lacking between them except the East and the West. It's time to find another suitable male ticket for the Queen Mother of the West!
Fourth, the third cp of the Queen Mother of the West? Dong
Right, Dong? Queen mother, this is a perfect match for cp. Not only is the spatial position of things relative (things), but the yin and yang attributes are also relative (male and female). It's a couple made in heaven. Oh, no, people from the Han Dynasty!
Han people seem to have a strong tendency of double obsessive-compulsive disorder, not only the Queen Mother of the West and Dong, but even? Where's fu? 、? Nu Wa? Brother and sister are also set as husband and wife?
And the image of Dong is recorded in the Divine Classic: There is a big stone house on the barren hill in the east, where Dong lives in seclusion, with long hair ten feet long, a bird's face and a tiger's tail, and a black dragon on his back, looking around? . Dong's image appeared with the Queen Mother of the West and occupied a prominent position on the tomb door of northern Shaanxi.
Of course, in addition to the humanoid Queen Mother and Dong, there also appeared? Special shape? The Queen Mother of the West and Dong, right? Chicken head and queen mother? And then what? Niu Shoudong Wang Gong? The two people in this animal image are even more amazing!
Then, the characteristics of bull's head and chicken's head will also be imposed on their servants and become symbols of their divine power, and both will restore their personal image.
Fifth, the symbolic significance of the successive cp of the Queen Mother of the West
From where? Lutz? Queen Mother of the West? Classic? Fengbo? Queen Mother of the West? And then what? Where's Dong? Queen Mother of the West? These three combination sequences are of great significance, from which we can reveal the performance of the combination of Yin and Yang in the Han Dynasty:
In the existing? Where's fu? Nu Wa? On this basis, the three CPS of the Queen Mother of the West appeared, which were finally fixed as? Queen Mother of the West? Where's Dong? In terms of patterns, it is worth noting that these combination patterns are all from Shandong, and among them, only from historical figures, and Dong is purely fictional.
This gradual process is in line with the historical trend that the cultural integration of the Han Empire transcends the dependence of regional or genre background and realizes the spiral rise of the system, which is in line with the internal logic of the formation of various ethnic religions!
