To predict the future, grasp the fate

All previous dynasties in the history books, dream predicted the record of good or ill luck.For example the Book of Jin records:

Cao Caozeng dreamed of three horses feeding in the same slot.Cao cao, think that this portends a sima yi (three-horse) father and son of emperor jing of jin and simazhao reigned (slot) cao's world, so the warning xelloss should pay attention to, but unfortunately xelloss didn't listen.

Such examples in history.Zuozhuan is recorded:

Song Jing male die, and two sons for the throne.Dream of rev. Head to the north and lay outside the door, have to be a crow on rev, mouth on the south gate, tail in tung on the door.Symbol so that his dream is good, he will succeed in the throne.Later have to really be made for the Kings of the song dynasty.

Why do you consider this dream well?Because, in ancient China has meaning theory is that: "lying down with head to the north, and on behalf of the dead;At the door, on behalf of the state."So will fail.And have to face the south, "the south is king", and control the various gates, nature will be successful.

Due to the effect of harbinger of the believe that dreams, ancient Chinese will according to the dream to determine their own actions.

The tang dynasty emperor tang gaozu at him just to rebel the sui dynasty had a dream, dreaming that I am off to bed, be worms to eat.He thinks this is the omen said he will die, so afraid to him.And he's a man explained: "falls under the bed, which means" your majesty ";Be eat maggots, said they will cling to you.This dream indicates that you want to be emperor."Tang gaozu heard these words, trust plays a soldier, and he were overturned the sui dynasty, when the emperor himself.

Tang gaozu's dream, the surface is like an inauspicious, but in fact is a good omen.The most clearly illustrates the dream the dream omen of ambiguity.In western culture, also have the same idea.Egyptian pharaoh dreamed of, for instance in the old testament 7 healthy cows, only then has seven thin cows and eat healthy cattle.Joseph told pharaoh, indicating the, there will be 7 years, then there are seven famine years, they will all run out of the first seven years of surplus.Omen theory is the basis of the primitive widespread "induction" view, think of heaven and earth can mutual induction between mankind and nature, also is many anthropologists put forward "primitive mutual permeation law".The old idea still exist.Many people tend to think that dream is a kind of superstition, but heart faint think that is reasonable.The future of life, good or ill luck and capricious.Whether it is a how of person, can insight into what has happened in the future.When we tried to figure out this point and couldn't find the answer, then someone to predict the dream.modernDuke of zhou interprets, it is human beings to predict the future, grasp the fate of the way.
